NEET qualification is mandatory for MBBS and BDS admission in India. Clearing it is just the first step — here's the full journey.
Based on your NEET score, register for counselling with the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) or respective state authorities.
Select colleges based on rank, preferences, seat availability, infrastructure, faculty and location.
Submit NEET scorecard, identity proof, academic certificates and category certificates for verification.
Seats are allotted based on merit, preferences, category and availability.
After seat allotment and document verification, confirm admission by paying fees within the stipulated time.
NEET counselling runs in two main categories:
Rounds: Round 1 (first phase), Round 2 (upgrade or first-time allotment), Mop-Up Round (mainly Deemed & Central Universities), and Stray Vacancy Round (final round, no fresh registration).
