Freed = seats released during that round because the student holding them upgraded to another college; MCC gives these out in the same round, which is why a round can fill more seats than its official vacancy list.
How we worked it out — step by step
The maths: All India · Open (UR)
Round 1: 15 seats − 9 joined = 6 empty. 15 students were allotted; 6 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 6 open.
Round 2: 6 open + 6 freed = 12 available → 12 filled. “Freed” = 6 students who had joined here in Round 1 got a better college in Round 2; their seats were given out in the same round. Every available seat was filled.
After Round 2 joining: 3 Round 1 students stayed + 12 placed in Round 2 = 15; 4 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 11 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 4 open.
Round 3: 4 open + 5 freed = 9 available − 9 filled = 0 seats left for the mop-up. “Freed” = 5 students holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
