West Bengal NEET PG Counselling 2025 Cutoff

The cutoff marks and percentiles are set and published only by NBEMS. These are the national qualifying cutoffs. WBMCC does not declare its own separate qualifying cutoff. Instead, it uses the same NBEMS qualifying percentiles/marks as the eligibility benchmark for West Bengal State Quota.

West Bengal NEET PG Counselling Rounds

The West Bengal Medical Counselling Committee (WBMCC) organises counselling in a sequence of rounds: Round 1, Round 2, Round 3 (if needed), a Mop-up round and finally a Stray-Vacancy round to fill any leftover seats. The exact number of rounds and their dates are published in the WBMCC information bulletin and round-wise notices on the official portal.

Round 1 

During Round 1, candidates fill and lock their choices from the seat matrix published for that round; seats are then allotted on the basis of NEET PG rank, category reservation and seat availability. Candidates who are allotted seats in Round 1 must download their allotment letter and report to the allotted institute within the prescribed window to complete document verification and pay any institute fees required for admission.

Round 2 

Held for candidates who were not allotted any seat in Round 1 and for candidates who have accepted a seat in Round 1 but wish to participate for upgradation. Candidates may retain their previous preferences or modify them and must lock choices before the deadline. Upgradation is possible only if a higher-preference seat becomes available during allotment in Round 2 according to merit and reservation rules.

Round 3/ Mop-up Round

If seats remain vacant after the main rounds, WBMCC may conduct a mop-up round to fill remaining seats. The mop-up round is intended to cover leftover government and private/management quota seats. Candidates who did not join in earlier rounds, as well as those who became eligible later and satisfy the eligibility criteria, may be permitted to take part in the mop-up round.

Stray Vacancy Round

The final special round is to fill any unclaimed seats after the mop-up round. In West Bengal this round is administered under WBMCC instructions (sometimes labelled “Special Stray Vacancy” in notices) and is usually available only to candidates who have already completed the WBMCC registration process for that counselling cycle. Fresh registrations are generally not permitted in stray rounds unless the official notice explicitly allows them.
