MCC NEET PG Round 2- Choice Filling & Locking

Introduction

Hey there, NEET candidates! The registration/payment round is scheduled to begin on 19th Nov and run up until the 24th of Nov. This round has the same 6-day span, but the process looks a little different from the first round.

It's basically the most crucial part - choice filling and locking. I know, I know, it sounds complicated, but trust me, it's not as scary as it seems. At NEET Support, having helped hundreds of students through this process, I can tell you that this is where you can really make a difference to your PG future.

Let's break it down together, step by step. No complicated words, no confusing terms - just plain, simple advice from someone who's been where you are right now.

Important Dates

Eligibility Criteria

Now, what are the qualifications one would need to even partake in this whole process?

• Have qualified NEET PG Current year, conducted by the National Board of Examinations (NBE)
• Have completed or are completing their MBBS internship by July 31st, 2025.
• Possess a valid registration certificate from the National Medical Commission (NMC) or the respective State Medical Council

So if you meet the internal quota requirements for Central Universities if applying under such categories, then congratulations- you're eligible! Keep in mind, the eligibility for internal quotas is defined by the respective universities, not MCC.

How Choice Filling & Locking Works

Let's just first get the basics down.

Choice Filling is like creating your dream list of colleges and courses. You're telling the system "This is what I want, in this order."

Choice Locking is when you officially confirm your list. Once locked, there's no going back - no changes, no edits, nothing.

Step-by-Step Process

Let me walk you through exactly what you need to do:

Login and Research (Do this early!)

• Go to mcc.nic.in and login with your credentials
• Study the seat matrix carefully
• Make a list of colleges and courses you're interested in

Start Filling Choices (From Nov 19th)

• Click on "Choice Filling" in your dashboard
• Start adding colleges in your order of preference
• Put your absolute dream college at the top
• Then add realistic options
• Finally, add some safe choices

Choice Locking Process (Nov 24th, 4 PM onwards)

• Login between 4 PM and 11:55 PM
• Review your choices one last time
• Click "Lock Choices"
• Take a screenshot of the confirmation page

Choice Filling Strategy

Your choice filling strategy can make or break your chances. Here's what works:

Pro Tips:

• Research each college's fee structure before adding
• Consider location and living expenses
• Check hostel availability if needed
• Talk to seniors about college reputation

Seat Allotment Process

So what's actually going to happen during these two days (25th-26th Nov 2025)? Well, MCC's list will start with the top-ranked student and give them their first available choice. Then it will move to the next student, and the next, and so on, and so forth.

It considers three things:

• Your NEET PG rank (obviously)
• Your category
• The order of choices you locked

Result Announcement

This is moment we've all been waiting for! When the results drop on 26th Nov, 2025, log in to see if you got a seat. If you did, celebrate, then get moving. You’ll need to download your allotment letter and physically report to the allotted college with all your original documents. Don’t be late, colleges won’t wait, and you don’t want to lose your seat because you missed the reporting window.
