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)
  1. Round 1: 6 seats − 1 joined = 5 empty. 6 students were allotted; 5 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 5 open.
  2. Round 2: 5 open + 1 freed = 6 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. Every available seat was filled.
  3. After Round 2 joining: 6 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 1 open.
  4. Round 3: 1 open + 2 freed = 3 available − 2 filled = 1 seat left for the mop-up. “Freed” = 2 students holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
The maths: All India · OBC
  1. Round 1: 4 seats − 0 joined = 4 empty. 4 students were allotted; 4 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 4 open.
  2. Round 2: 4 open + 0 freed = 4 available → 4 filled. Every available seat was filled.
  3. After Round 2 joining: 4 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 0 open.
  4. 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.
The maths: All India · SC
  1. Round 1: 2 seats − 1 joined = 1 empty. 2 students were allotted; 1 did not join or gave the seat up. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 1 open.
  2. Round 2: 1 open + 1 freed = 2 available → 2 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. Every available seat was filled.
  3. After Round 2 joining: 0 Round 1 students stayed + 2 placed in Round 2 = 2; 1 student placed in Round 2 did not join, so 1 student holds a seat. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 1 open.
  4. Round 3: 1 open + 1 freed = 2 available − 2 filled = 0 seats left for the mop-up. “Freed” = 1 student holding a seat here upgraded elsewhere in Round 3.
The maths: All India · ST
  1. Round 1: 2 seats − 2 joined = 0 empty. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 0 open.
  2. Round 2: 0 open + 0 freed = 0 available → 0 filled. Every available seat was filled.
  3. After Round 2 joining: 2 students hold seats. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 0 open.
  4. Round 3: 0 open + 0 freed = 0 available − 0 filled = 0 seats left for the mop-up.
The maths: All India · EWS
  1. Round 1: 1 seat − 1 joined = 0 empty. MCC’s Round 2 list showed 0 open.
  2. Round 2: 0 open + 1 freed = 1 available → 1 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. Every available seat was filled.
  3. After Round 2 joining: 1 student holds a seat. MCC’s Round 3 list showed 0 open.
  4. Round 3: 0 open + 0 freed = 0 available − 0 filled = 0 seats left for the mop-up.
