Gujarat NEET UG Round 5 Counselling: 10,710 candidates ineligible for 33 vacant BDS seats

As many as 10,710 candidates have been declared ineligible for Gujarat NEET UG round 5 counselling for BDS admissions. The Admission Committee for Professional Under Graduate Medical Courses (ACPUGMEC) announced that it will conduct an additional state-level counselling to fill vacant seats after four rounds of the selection process.

Previously, the admission committee notified the Gujarat NEET UG round 5 and 6 counselling schedule to fill 33 BDS seats after the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) announced its decision to conduct two extra rounds for both All India Quota (AIQ) and state quota seats lying vacant. BSc Nursing seats will also be filled during these rounds.

Online registration, PIN purchase, and document verification were completed on December 12. Following this, the ACPUGMEC has published the Gujarat NEET UG merit list for the last two rounds.

The choice filling facility for the eligible students will begin soon on the official website, medadmgujarat.org. The seat allotment will be declared soon after the choice filling and locking process by December 16. The round 5 counselling deadline for state admissions has been fixed as December 20 by the MCC.
