Overview

Ahead of the Round 2 allotment for NEET SS 2025 counselling, a doctors' body has requested the Union Health Ministry to direct the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) and the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) to reduce the qualifying cutoff before the counselling and clearly announce whether a third round or stray vacancy round will be conducted.

In a representation to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare on 15.04.2026, the Federation of Resident Doctors’ Association (FORDA), which represents the collective voice of resident doctors across India, said candidates are worried not just about whether the cut-off will be reduced, but when the decision will be communicated. The association pointed out that the current NEET SS 2025 counselling guidelines mention only two rounds, with no clarity on a third round or stray vacancy round.
