Older institutional descriptions can retain a different intake for their own publication period. The dated matrix above is kept separate from category allocation, student strength and current counselling vacancies.
Teaching setting and clinical learning
The college describes teaching departments and an attached hospital. Its IIMS identity matters in counselling: the published reservation framework differs from a standard government-college allocation. Do not substitute another government college’s category assumptions.
Academic resources and student life
A central library is identified on the institutional website. The retrieved library page does not quantify the collection, subscriptions or opening hours; this profile does not assign those figures.

Frequently asked questions
Where is GMC Palakkad (IIMS)?
Government Medical College (Institute of Integrated Medical Sciences), Yakkara, Palakkad is recorded in East Yakkara, Kunnathurmedu PO, Palakkad, Kerala. Match the exact campus and college code PKM when reading counselling tables.
What is the MBBS admission route?
NEET-UG → MCC AIQ / Kerala CEE. Entrance qualification, counselling registration, seat allotment and reporting are separate stages.
How long is MBBS?
4½ years + 1-year internship. The internship is supervised training; it should not be described as a guaranteed permanent job.
How many MBBS seats are referenced?
100 in the dated profile reference. NMC 2026–27 MBBS matrix as on 18 September 2026; KL/008/G/1; published total, subject to revision; not round-wise vacancies
Which other programmes are listed?
MBBS: 1 named entry. These catalogue counts do not establish current sanctioned seats or open admissions.
Which fee year does this page use?
DME schedule: admissions from 2023–24 onwards. Preserve the category, currency and payment period attached to each row; obtain a revised notice for any later batch.
Does the fee table cover hostel and mess?
Only charges explicitly named in the fee evidence have that scope. Tuition, deposits, hostel, mess and incidental expenses must be checked separately. Do not multiply a joining total into a full-course fee.
Are the cutoff figures NEET All India Ranks?
The Kerala CEE tables use the rank scale stated in their source. Kerala state-list ranks cannot be read as NEET All India Ranks. Compare the same college, category, year and phase.
Can I apply directly to the college for an MBBS seat?
Use the officially applicable counselling route: NEET-UG → MCC AIQ / Kerala CEE. An enquiry to MedCollege is a request for guidance and does not register a counselling choice or reserve a seat.
Are all programme catalogue entries open this year?
No. A named institutional programme is different from a current seat in a counselling matrix. Check permission, affiliation, intake and the session-specific admission notice for your exact programme.
Are scholarships guaranteed?
Eligibility, documentary requirements, approval and disbursement depend on the individual scheme. A fee-concession row does not prove that every applicant can claim a scholarship.
Can I rely on a hospital doctor list as the teaching faculty list?
A hospital consultant directory and an academic faculty roster have different scopes. Use the medical college department list, academic designation and dated disclosure.
Does the profile promise a salary or placement?
No salary or placement rate is inferred from hospital activity, internship or programme intake. Cohort-based outcome evidence must state the qualification, graduating year and metric.
How should I check accommodation?
Ask GMC Palakkad (IIMS) for the current hostel allocation rules, room availability, mess arrangements, deposits and refund conditions. A historic capacity figure does not guarantee a room.
Who receives the enquiry form?
The form on this page is the existing MedCollege enquiry form. It is separate from the official college, examination and counselling portals.
Which documents should I prepare?
Keep identity, qualifying-examination certificates, entrance result, allotment letter and the category or quota evidence required in your reporting notice. PG applicants also need the applicable medical degree, internship and registration records.
Can a historical photograph establish current facilities?
No. The caption identifies any available date and provenance. Images give a visual reference; current facilities and access need confirmation from the institution.
How can I compare GMC Palakkad (IIMS) with another college?
Use the same qualification, academic year, category and fee period. Compare the teaching setting, total payable costs, reporting route and dated source evidence rather than a single headline number.
Where can I confirm revised notices?
Use the official institutional resource and applicable CEE or MCC portal listed in Sources. Older profile evidence remains historical until a later document is checked.
Why are some details awaiting verification?
A college-specific source has not yet established the detail at the required scope. The page identifies those gaps so that missing data is not presented as zero or replaced with an invented figure.
Sources and information dates
The tables and college-specific descriptions retain the source periods recorded in the supplied college profile. Dated historical information is not a confirmation of current capacity, vacancies, charges or personnel. Official-page observations added in this revision are identified separately.
