AIIMS NORCET 11 result: how to check the merit list

The result is out in PDF form, not through a login-based scorecard. Follow these steps on the AIIMS examination portal:

• Visit aiimsexams.ac.in and go to the NORCET 11 recruitment section.
• Look for the result notice dated October 10, 2026, and click the link.
• The merit list PDF will open on your screen.
• Press Ctrl+F and type your roll number to find your qualifying status.
• Download the PDF and keep a copy for the next stages.

If your roll number is not in the list, do not lose heart. AIIMS has said that every candidate, including those who did not qualify, has been awarded a score based on the Stage 2 performance. These scores can be viewed in the MyPage section of the portal after logging in with the Candidate ID and password.

10,613 candidates cleared the Stage 2 mains on October 10. Choice filling for AIIMS and other participating institutes opens on October 30.

Category-wise qualifying cutoffs

AIIMS fixed the qualifying percentages based on the exam pattern and scheme. The cutoffs for this round are:

• UR / EWS: 50.000%
• OBC: 45.000%
• SC / ST: 40.000%
• UR-PWBD: 45.417%
• EWS-PWBD: 52.917%
• OBC-PWBD: 41.042%
• SC-PWBD: 37.708%
• ST-PWBD: Nil

Remember, clearing the cutoff makes you eligible for institute allocation. It does not, by itself, guarantee a seat at your preferred AIIMS. The final allocation depends on your rank and the choices you fill.

What happens next: choice filling from October 30

Qualified candidates will not get their institute allotment straight away. AIIMS will publish the final seat position and the detailed allocation procedure on October 30, 2026. The online choice filling window runs from October 30 to November 6, 2026, closing at 5 PM.

Study the institute list carefully before filling choices. The final allocation will be done online, strictly on the basis of the NORCET rank and the preferences submitted. Keep visiting the exam results section and the official portal regularly, because document verification and medical examination dates will follow the allocation rounds.

For perspective on how fast these medical recruitment rounds move, the FMGE October 2026 final edit window recently showed how small deadlines can decide a candidate’s whole attempt. The KMAT 2026 session 1 result also drew attention this week, with qualified candidates moving on to group discussion and interview rounds.

NORCET 11: the journey so far

The recruitment began with the notification on July 24, 2026, and applications closed on August 13. The exam city information came out on September 3, and admit cards followed on September 9. The Stage 1 computer-based test was held on September 12, with its result declared on September 18. Stage 2 was conducted on September 30, and the result has now arrived in just ten days.

Candidates needed to be between 18 and 30 years of age as of August 13, 2026, with the usual relaxations for reserved categories. The educational bar was set at B.Sc. Nursing, Post-Basic B.Sc. Nursing, or a GNM diploma, along with valid nursing registration. Where the notification required it, candidates also needed two years of experience in a hospital with at least 50 beds.

The selection process is not over with the written test. Document verification and a medical examination come next, as per the recruitment rules. Read the official notice on the AIIMS portal before each stage so no paper is missed.
