Hello! Thank you for reaching out. I hope you're doing well.

Yes, you can directly participate in NEET Round 3 (also known as the Mop-Up round) even if you skipped Round 2, provided you were not allotted any seat in Round 1. You don’t need to pay the Rs.2 lakh security deposit again if you have already paid it for the previous rounds, as it will carry forward. However, if you don’t get a seat even after Round 3, the security deposit will be refunded to you, usually within a specific period after the completion of the counseling process.

Let me know if you need any further clarification or additional information.

Hello,

Yes, you can participate in NEET Round 3 (Mop-up round) even if you skip Round 2 after not being allotted a seat in Round 1.

However, you don’t need to re-register or pay the security deposit again, provided you didn’t get a seat in Round 1 and haven't opted out of further rounds.

Your initial security deposit remains valid for the entire counseling process, including the mop-up round.

However, it’s important to check the specific counseling rules of the state or institution as they might have slight variations.

Hope it helps!
