How it works

MCC NEET PG counselling rounds

01

Round 1

MCC PG opens registration for all India quota seats. Choice filling for 4–5 days.

Fill all eligible speciality + college combos. Broader choices = better rank utilisation.

02

Round 2

Unfilled and surrendered seats from Round 1. Option to upgrade from R1 allotment.

If allotted R1, decide early whether to upgrade. Retained seats are safe; upgrades are not guaranteed.

03

Final round for remaining unfilled PG seats across all institutes.

Eligibility criteria may change. Check MCC notice carefully before applying.

Overview

NEET PG counselling — explained

What is NEET PG counselling?

NEET PG counselling is the national seat-allotment process for MD, MS, Diploma and DNB postgraduate medical courses. MCC conducts counselling for 50% All India Quota seats in state government colleges, and all seats in central, deemed and ESIC institutes. State governments run parallel counsellings for the remaining 50% state-quota PG seats.

Which specialities are covered?

All clinical and non-clinical MD/MS specialities are covered — including General Medicine, Surgery, Paediatrics, Orthopaedics, Radiology, Pathology, Anaesthesia, Psychiatry and more. DNB seats (through NBEMS) are also allotted via MCC PG from a common merit list.

How is the PG seat allotment different from UG?

NEET PG has a 50% AIQ split (vs 15% in UG), meaning half of all state government PG seats go to the national pool. Speciality preference matters as much as institute preference — candidates must balance both. Bond obligations, stipend differences and service criteria across states add an extra layer of complexity.
