Official Counselling for MBBS, BDS, BAMS, BHMS, MD, MS, and MDS Admissions 2026.
MBBS & BDS Admissions 2026 Process
The NEET UG 2026 counselling process for MBBS and BDS seats is primarily divided into two streams: the 15% All India Quota (AIQ) managed by MCC, and the 85% State Quota managed by state authorities. Understanding the seat matrix, cutoff scores, and reservation policies is critical to securing admission into top medical and dental colleges.
For state quota counselling, candidates must meet the specific domicile requirements. The merit list is prepared based on the NEET UG scores of the registered candidates. Subsequent rounds including Round 1, Round 2, Mop-up, and Stray Vacancy rounds dictate the final seat allotments in government and private institutions.
Counselling Process Steps
AYUSH Admissions (BAMS, BHMS, BUMS) 2026
Admissions to Ayurveda, Yoga & Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy (AYUSH) undergraduate courses are also governed by NEET UG scores. The AACCC (Ayush Admissions Central Counseling Committee) conducts counselling for the 15% AIQ seats, while state authorities manage the remaining 85% state quota seats.
The counselling procedure involves online registration, payment of fees, choice filling of preferred AYUSH colleges, and document verification. Securing a BAMS or BHMS seat requires careful tracking of the state merit lists and active participation in the mop-up rounds.
NEET PG (MD/MS) Counselling 2026
Postgraduate medical admissions for MD, MS, and PG Diploma courses are highly competitive and depend strictly on the NEET PG rank. Like UG, it features a 50% All India Quota (counselled by MCC) and a 50% State Quota.
Candidates must navigate complex service bond regulations, stipend structures, and institutional preferences during the choice-filling phase. Proper guidance is essential to evaluate clinical exposure and department reputation before locking choices in Round 1 or Round 2.
NEET MDS Admissions 2026
For BDS graduates pursuing a Master of Dental Surgery (MDS), the NEET MDS exam is the gateway. The counselling allocates seats across government dental colleges and private institutions for specialized branches like Oral Surgery, Orthodontics, and Prosthodontics.
The allotment process follows a similar multi-round online system, requiring early registration and strategic choice locking based on previous year cutoffs and seat matrices.
