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: 9 seats − 2 joined = 7 empty. 9 students were allotted; 7 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 7 open.
Round 2: 7 open + 0 freed = 7 available → 7 filled. Every available seat was filled.
After Round 2 joining: 2 Round 1 students stayed + 7 placed in Round 2 = 9; 5 students placed in Round 2 did not join, so 4 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 5 open.
Round 3: 5 open + 3 freed = 8 available − 8 filled = 0 seats left for the mop-up. “Freed” = 3 students holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
The maths: All India · OBC
Round 1: 6 seats − 1 joined = 5 empty. 7 students were allotted; 6 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 6 open (MCC added or moved 1 seat here).
Round 2: 6 open + 1 freed = 7 available → 6 filled. “Freed” = 1 student who had joined here in Round 1 got a better college in Round 2; their seats were given out in the same round. 1 seat stayed unfilled.
After Round 2 joining: 6 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 0 open.
Round 3: 0 open + 2 freed = 2 available − 2 filled = 0 seats left for the mop-up. “Freed” = 2 students holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
