Round 3 provides an opportunity for candidates to secure a seat if they missed out in earlier rounds or are seeking an upgrade. Key steps include registration, choice filling, and reporting to the allotted colleges.

Registration and Payment

Candidates must register and pay the counselling fee on the official MCC portal during the specified timeline. Failure to complete this step will render them ineligible for further processes.

Reporting to Colleges

• Allotment letter
• NEET PG rank card
• Identity proof
• Academic certificates
