Bihar UGMAC Round 2 counselling is open to eligible NEET UG 2026 qualified candidates who meet the applicable UGMAC 2026 eligibility requirements.
Candidates who did not submit their UGMAC application earlier may also register during the specified Round 2 window, subject to the eligibility and application requirements.

Bihar NEET Round 2 Choice Filling 2026
Choice filling is an important part of the Round 2 process because the available options have changed with the updated seat matrix. BCECEB has made a Second Round Seat Matrix for UGMAC-2026 available through its official website.

The last date to fill, edit and lock choices is September 18, 2026, up to 11:59 PM.
Candidates should complete the choice-locking process before the deadline rather than waiting until the last few hours.
