The MCC NEET counselling registration form has to be filled in online mode only. The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) does not provide an option to fill and submit the NEET counselling registration or application form in offline mode or send the hardcopy of the form by post. Eligible candidates will have to first register and then fill and submit the MCC NEET counselling 2025 application form, along with the payment of the application fee.

While candidates are allowed to participate in the national and state-level NEET counselling simultaneously, if they are allotted a seat in either of the counselling processes, they cannot participate in the further rounds for both 15 per cent AIQ and 85 per cent State Quota seats. However, if they decide to withdraw from the seat or upgrade it, then they can participate in both counselling types till the time they join a seat. 

There are a total of three to four rounds of Assam NEET UG counselling. These rouds are known as:

• First Round Counselling or Round 1 Counselling
• Second Round Counselling or Round 2 Counselling
• Third Round Counselling or Mop-up Round Counselling
• Fourth Round Counselling or Stray Vacancy Round Counselling

The number of rounds of counselling will vary depending on the seat vacancy. 

In general, the total duration of the Assam NEET UG counselling is of three to four months. The total number of counselling rounds is also around three to four. On an average, each round is conducted for a duration of one month. The exact durtion will be updated once the Directorate of Medical Education (DME) Assam announces the round-wise schedule of the Assam NEET counselling 2025. The number of rounds may exceed in case vacant seats are left after the last round of counselling. In that case the overall duration or the tenure of the counselling will also extend. 

In general, the institute reporting process is conducted for three to four days for each round of Assam NEET counselling. Candidates will have to check the important dates carefully and report to the institutes within the deadline. In certain cases, the last date of reporting to institutes is extended. There may be a possibility that DME Assam will conduct institute reporting separately for courses or candidate categories.

Based on that, the counselling authorities will upgrade the seats based on the choices entered by candidates, in case the desired seat is vacant after the institute reporting process is concluded, additional round of counselling will be conducted.
