Understanding NEET Counselling

NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) is the gateway for admission to MBBS, BDS, and other medical courses in India. Post-exam, the counselling process is conducted to allocate seats to qualified candidates based on their ranks and preferences. NEET counselling is conducted at two levels:

• All India Quota (AIQ) Counselling: Conducted by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), it covers 15% of seats in all government medical and dental colleges across India.
• State Quota Counselling: Conducted by respective state authorities, it covers the remaining 85% of seats in government colleges and all seats in private colleges.

Steps to Participate in NEET Counselling

• Registration: Visit the official MCC website (www.mcc.nic.in) for AIQ counselling or your state’s official counselling portal for state quota. Register using your NEET roll number and other required details.
• Choice Filling and Locking: After registration, fill in your preferred colleges and courses. Ensure you lock your choices before the deadline.
• Seat Allotment: Based on your NEET rank, preferences, and availability, seats will be allotted. The results will be published on the official counselling portal.
• Reporting to Allotted College: If you are allotted a seat, report to the respective college with the required documents for verification and admission
• Subsequent Rounds: If you are not satisfied with your allotted seat or didn’t get a seat in the first round, you can participate in subsequent rounds.
