Navigating the Rounds of MCC Counselling 2025

In order to fill out all medical seats, including those at AIIMS and Deemed Universities, the counselling process initially consists of four (main 3) rounds. Each round will confirm the number of vacant seats, and candidates will be assigned seats according to their availability, preferences, and rank. NEET 2025 counselling is offered in four rounds, which are as follows:

  • Round 1
  • Round 2
  • Round 3/Mop-up Round
  • Stray Vacancy Round

Spot Rounds: There can be more rounds of counselling to fill the open spots after the first four rounds of counselling are over. Depending on the number of available seats, the number of rounds may go up even further.
