Q:   What is the procedure of counselling in NEET?

A:
The NEET counselling process is a combination of online and offline. The step-wise procedure to participate in the NEET counselling process is given below: Registration: The first step is to register online by filling up the form released on the official website of the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). After filling the form, candidates will have to pay the requisite fee. Choice filling: Candidates will have to select colleges where they wish to take admission to. Registered candidates will have to log in to the MCC website with their credentials and then fill in choices. Choice Locking: During the choice locking period, it is necessary to lock the choices to get a print of your submitted choices. Candidates must go through their submitted choices before locking, as once they lock the choices they cannot be modified or changed. Seat Allotment Result: MCC will release the seat allotment result for candidates who had registered and submitted choices following the due process. Based on their seat allotment, candidates can either accept or go for the institute reporting round. Or they may opt for an upgradation of seats. In the case of the latter, they will have to register for further rounds of counselling. Institute Reporting: Based on the seat allotment result, candidates will have to visit the institutes where they wish to take their medical admission. This step involves verification of the hard copy of mandatory documents and payment of admission fees.
