⚡ Key Strategic Takeaways

✓Download scorecard only from neet.nta.nic.in candidate login.
✓MCC conducts AIQ counseling for central/deemed universities; states run separate registries.
✓Register on both MCC and your state portal if you want maximum seat options.
✓Keep Class 10, 12, category, and PwBD certificates attested as per counseling notice.
✓NEET PG follows NBEMS on natboard.edu.in — do not confuse UG and PG login portals.

§1. Scorecard vs rank letter

The NTA scorecard shows marks, percentile, and All India Rank (as applicable). State ranks may be issued only on state counseling sites.

§2. MCC round flow

Typical AIQ flow: registration → choice filling → seat allotment → reporting → upgradation rounds → stray vacancy. Each step has hard deadlines in IST.

§3. State quota

Home-state quotas require domicile or eligibility rules defined by state DGHS. Read the state PDF before locking choices.

§4. Related SarkariPaper sections

Medical aspirants also track [Teaching/TET](/exams/teaching) and [Education updates](/education) for paramedical and university admissions.
