Overview
The Odisha NEET PG 2025 Round 2 Counselling is conducted for admission to Post Graduate Medical (MD/MS) and Post-MBBS DNB courses in medical colleges across the state. This round is designed to fill seats that remained vacant after the first round of allotment. The process is centralized and conducted online by the concerned state authority (typically the Odisha Joint Entrance Examination Committee or the Directorate of Medical Education and Training). Candidates who qualified in NEET-PG 2025 and are eligible for the state quota seats can participate. This round represents a crucial opportunity for both fresh candidates and those looking to upgrade their Round 1 allotments.

FAQs
I missed Round 1 counselling. Can I participate in Round 2?
Yes, if you are eligible. You must ensure your name is on the state merit list. If fresh registration was required and is now closed, you may not be able to participate. Check the official website immediately for any late instructions.
Where do I fill and lock my choices?
You must log in to the official Odisha NEET PG counselling portal (likely through OJEE or DMET websites) using your credentials. The choice filling interface will be active from 10:00 AM on 14th December.
What happens if I don't lock my choices by 11:59 PM on 16th December?
The system may auto-lock the last saved choices, or your choices may be considered invalid, leading to no allotment. DO NOT rely on auto-lock. Manually lock your choices well before the deadline.
When will we know the exact reporting dates for allotted candidates?
The detailed reporting schedule, including college-wise timings, is expected to be published along with the allotment result on 18th December or shortly after on the official website.
I was allotted a seat in Round 1. If I get a better seat in Round 2, what happens?
You will be upgraded. You must take admission in the new Round 2 seat. Your Round 1 seat will be automatically released for other candidates. Failure to join the Round 2 seat will lead to loss of both seats and possible penalty.
