  • No changes after locking: Once locked, your choices cannot be edited.
  • Mandatory reporting: If you’re allotted a seat in Round 1, you must report to the college or risk losing the seat and your security deposit.
  • Free exit allowed: If you’re allotted a seat but choose not to report in Round 1, there will be no penalty.
  • Keep documents ready: NEET scorecard, admit card, class 10 & 12 mark sheets, ID proof, caste certificate (if applicable), and PwBD certificate (if claiming reservation).

Tips for Effective Choice Filling

  • Mix your preferences: Include a range of government, private, and deemed universities based on your budget and score.
  • Prioritize sincerely: List colleges in your true order of preference; the MCC system will allot the highest possible option.
  • Avoid unwanted choices: Don’t select colleges you’re not actually willing to join.
