What Is NEET UG Counselling?
Candidates who have cleared the NEET UG 2024 exam will now appear for the next step - admission into medical colleges across India. The Medical Counselling Committee will carry out the counselling process for the seats under the All-India quota.
The admissions for the state quota seats will be carried out by the respective state counselling bodies.
Every year, MCC conducts the NEET UG Counselling process in four rounds - Round 1, Round 2, Mop-Up Round and Stray Vacany Round.
Candidates would be required to submit their preferences for medical colleges. The seat allocations will be determined by their NEET UG scores.
Based on previous trends and the affidavit before the Supreme Court, candidates will be allowed to change their seat selections in the first and second rounds of counselling based on their preferences.
