Published 28 Nov 20253 min read238 Views
The Admission Committee for Professional Postgraduate Medical Education Courses (ACPPGMEC), responsible for PG medical admissions in Gujarat, has announced a crucial extension for the Round 1 Choice Filling and Locking process. For NEET PG 2025 aspirants targeting MD, MS, and postgraduate diploma seats in Gujarat, this serves as the final, non-negotiable deadline.
According to the latest official notification from the Directorate of Medical Education (DME) Gujarat, the deadline for eligible candidates to submit their preferred options has been extended until 11:00 AM today, November 28, 2025. This last-minute extension provides a few crucial hours for candidates who may have faced issues with the initial schedule, which was set to end yesterday, November 27th.
The Critical Window Closes Today
Aspirants are strongly advised to stop all other activities and focus entirely on finalizing their choice lists. Given that the extension is minimal—only until 11:00 AM this morning—any further delay could lead to missing the opportunity to be considered for an allotment in the first round.
Key action points for candidates today:
- Log in immediately to the official DME Gujarat portal.
- Review your filled choices for MD, MS, and Diploma courses. Ensure the preferences are listed in descending order of desirability (most preferred choice at rank 1).
- Confirm the locking status. It is imperative that choices are formally locked before the 11:00 AM cut-off. Unlocked choices may not be processed, leading to ineligibility for Round 1 allotment.
This round is particularly important as the latest tentative seat matrix released by DME Gujarat indicated a total of 2,364 vacant seats across 32 courses, which includes 2,348 seats across MD and MS programs, and 16 Diploma seats. Securing a seat in Round 1 offers the best chance at landing a top specialty or institution.
Immediate Next Steps and Requirements
Once the choice filling window closes at 11:00 AM, the committee will immediately proceed with the seat allotment processing.
- Processing of Allotment: Commences immediately after 11:00 AM on November 28, 2025.
- Round 1 Seat Allotment Result: The result is expected to be declared shortly after the processing period, usually within 1-2 days. Candidates must keep checking the official website for the exact result date and the subsequent reporting schedule.
Candidates must also ensure they meet the minimum required NEET PG cut-off percentiles to be eligible for admission to the Gujarat Postgraduate Medical program: 50th percentile for General category, 40th for SC/ST/OBC, and 45th for PH category.
The extension is a final grace period for candidates who are participating in the Gujarat NEET PG Counselling. Aspirants must not miss this final window. For regular updates on admission procedures and official notices, follow Only Education News.
