is all India neet counseling is common for every one or separate counseling for b category seats plzz clarify my doubt???

Hello aspirant,

In India, the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) is used for admission to undergraduate medical courses (MBBS/BDS) in various institutions. The counseling process for NEET is not uniform across all categories and institutions. Here’s a breakdown of how it typically works:

1. Common Counseling vs. Separate Counseling

1. Centralized Counseling:

   • All India Quota (AIQ): For 15% of MBBS/BDS seats in government medical colleges, there is a centralized counseling process conducted by the Medical Counseling Committee (MCC) under the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS). This is applicable for students across all categories who qualify for the All India Quota.
   • Deemed Universities and Central Universities: For 100% of seats in deemed universities and certain central universities, MCC also conducts centralized counseling.

2. State-Level Counseling:

• State Quota: The remaining 85% of seats in government medical colleges and all seats in private medical colleges are filled through state-level counseling. Each state has its own counseling authority and process. This counseling is generally separate and conducted by the respective State Counseling Authorities.

2. Category-Specific Counseling:

• Reserved Categories: Within the state and All India Quota counseling processes, there are reserved categories such as SC, ST, OBC, and EWS. Candidates from these categories may have separate merit lists and seat allocation based on their category-specific ranks.
• B Category Seats: If by "B category seats" you refer to seats in private or deemed universities (sometimes referred to as management quota seats), these may have separate counseling or admission processes. These seats often involve higher fees and may require a separate application process.

3. Process Overview:

1. For All India Quota Seats:

   • Registration: Candidates must register on the MCC website.
   • Choice Filling: Candidates fill in their choices of colleges and courses.
   • Seat Allotment: Based on merit, choices, and availability, seats are allocated.
   • Reporting: Candidates must report to the allocated college for admission.

2. For State Quota Seats:

   • State-Specific Process: Each state has its own counseling process, which may include online registration, choice filling, and seat allocation based on state merit lists and category-specific reservations.
   • Reporting: Candidates must report to the allocated college as per the state’s guidelines.

3. For Deemed Universities and Private Institutions:

   • Separate Process: Admission to these institutions often involves a different process, which may include separate counseling or direct application to the institution. Some institutions may also have their own entrance tests or criteria.

Summary

• All India Quota Counseling is centralized and managed by the MCC for 15% of government college seats and deemed universities.
• State Quota Counseling is handled by individual states for 85% of government college seats and all private medical college seats.
• Category-Specific Counseling can involve separate lists and seat allocations within both centralized and state-level processes.
• B Category Seats in private or deemed universities might have separate processes and are often not part of the standard NEET counseling.

Always refer to the official counseling notifications and guidelines for the most accurate and current information.

Hope it helps !
