West Bengal NEET UG 2026 Round 1 Revised Eligible Candidate List Released: Check Your Name Before Choice Filling

Introduction

The West Bengal Medical Counselling Committee (WBMCC) has released the Revised Provisional List of Candidates Eligible for Choice Filling for Round 1 of NEET UG 2026 counselling. This is for admission to MBBS and BDS courses under the 85% State Quota, along with Management Quota and NRI Quota seats, across government and private medical and dental colleges in West Bengal.

This is a revised list, which means it replaces an earlier version released just a few days before it. Let's understand what changed, why it matters, and what you need to do next.

What Has Been Released?

The counselling authority has released a Revised Provisional List of Candidates Eligible for Choice Filling

This means the list is intended to identify candidates currently shown as eligible to participate in the choice-filling stage.

So, if you've registered for West Bengal NEET UG counselling, don't jump straight to filling choices without checking the list.

First:

Check the revised eligible list → Find your details → Verify your eligibility information → Then follow the choice-filling schedule.

What This Revised List Actually Contains?

According to the revised list, 10,085 candidates are eligible to take part in choice filling for Round 1. The revised seat matrix, released alongside it, covers 7,421 seats across participating MBBS and BDS colleges in the state.

Since this is a revised merit list, it means the state rank order has changed after further verification; even a small movement in your rank position can affect which colleges and courses you're realistically eligible for. So don't assume your position from the earlier list still holds; check the revised one directly.

How To Check Your Name And Rank?

Step 1: Visit the official WBMCC website, wbmcc.nic.in

Step 2: Look for the link to the Revised Provisional List of Candidates Eligible for Choice Filling, Round 1

Step 3: Since this list covers over ten thousand candidates across many pages, use "Ctrl+F" on your computer to search directly for your roll number or application number, instead of scrolling manually

Step 4: Once you find your entry, check your rank, category, and eligibility details carefully against your NEET UG 2026 scorecard

What To Do If Your Name Or Details Look Wrong?

If you don't find your name on this revised list, or if your rank or category shown doesn't match what you expect, don't guess or assume it will sort itself out. Keep your NEET UG 2026 scorecard, registration confirmation, and category certificate (if applicable) ready, and check WBMCC's official portal for the correct process to raise this. Since this is a revised list following a fresh round of verification, the channel for corrections at this stage may be different from the general grievance window used earlier in the process.

Who Is Eligible To Be On This List?

To be part of this revised list, you generally needed to:

• Have qualified NEET UG 2026
• Have completed WBMCC registration during the original registration window (13 to 16 August 2026)
• Meet the West Bengal domicile and category norms as laid out in the official Notice cum Information Bulletin dated 11 August 2026

Also worth knowing, candidates who are domiciles of West Bengal are given priority over outside-state candidates for the State Quota seats. If you're applying from outside West Bengal, keep this in mind while planning your choice list, since your realistic options may look different from a West Bengal domicile candidate at the same rank.

What Comes Next: Choice Filling?

Now that the revised list is out, the choice filling window has opened and runs until 27 August 2026. If your name appears on this list, this is your window to select and rank the colleges and courses you'd like to be considered for.

A few things worth keeping in mind:

Recheck your revised rank before you start. Don't rely on where you stood in the earlier provisional list — your position may have shifted.

Review the updated seat matrix. With 7,421 seats now listed, go through the available colleges and courses carefully before ranking your preferences.

Build a wide preference list. Don't limit yourself to just your top few choices — add every college and course combination you'd genuinely accept, so you don't miss out simply because you didn't include an option.

Lock your choices before 27 August. Once the window closes, whatever you've filled and locked is what WBMCC will use for allotment — so don't leave this for the very last hour.

What Happens After Choice Filling?

Once choice filling closes on 27 August, the Round 1 seat allotment result is expected on 31 August 2026. If you're allotted a seat, you'll need to report to your allotted institute between 1 and 5 September 2026, with your original documents, to confirm admission.

Keep in mind that WBMCC counselling generally runs across three to five rounds, with fresh registration accepted in each round. So if you don't get an allotment you're happy with in Round 1, you're not without options — there will be subsequent rounds. Candidates also have the option to opt out of counselling at various stages, following WBMCC's seat surrender policy, if needed.

Documents You Should Keep Ready

• NEET UG 2026 admit card and scorecard
• Class 10 and Class 12 mark sheets and certificates
• Category certificate, if applicable
• Domicile certificate, if you're a West Bengal resident claiming priority
• A valid government photo ID
• Recent passport-size photographs
• Any document relevant to Management or NRI quota eligibility, if applicable

Keep these ready now, since the timeline from choice filling to reporting is fairly compact.

FAQs

Conclusion

This revised list is the direct result of WBMCC tightening up its verification process, and it's pushed the entire remaining Round 1 timeline back by roughly a week. The most important thing right now is to check your name and rank on this new list specifically, not rely on where you stood in the earlier version, and use the choice filling window between 25 and 27 August to build a genuinely wide preference list based on the revised seat matrix.

If you're unsure about your revised rank, confused about how domicile priority affects your options, or want help planning your choice list before the 27 August deadline, reaching out to a trusted NEET counselling expert can make this a lot easier to navigate.
