Rajasthan closed its registration on November 14, while Uttar Pradesh completed Round 1 registration and payment by November 13. Karnataka has released its provisional seat matrix, and Punjab has extended its choice-filling process.

Aspirants are urged to vigilantly track both MCC and respective state websites due to staggered timelines across states. The MCC has implemented measures to ensure timely counselling, mandating working on weekends and holidays and requiring seamless data sharing between states and MCC. Candidates should maintain all necessary documents, such as NEET scorecards and internship certificates, ready for timely participation to avoid disruptions in admissions.
