3. Seat Allotment: Based on NEET rank, choices filled, category, and seat availability, seats will be allotted in different rounds.
4. Document Verification: Candidates provisionally allotted a seat must report to the designated centre or college for document verification. Essential documents include NEET Admit Card, NEET Scorecard, Class 10 & 12 certificates/mark sheets, identity proof, passport-size photographs, provisional allotment letter, and category certificate (if applicable).
