Gujarat NEET PG 2025 Round 3 Counselling Window Closes Tomorrow

The Admission Committee for Professional Post-Graduate Medical Education Courses (ACPPGMEC) is set to conclude the choice filling and locking process for the third Stage of Gujarat State medical Entry tomorrow. As the 2025-26 academic session progresses, this round represents a pivotal moment for postgraduate medical aspirants who have been vying for a Vacancy in MD, MS, and Diploma programs across the state's government and self-financed colleges.

Final Countdown for Gujarat NEET PG Choice Filling

With the document verification phase having concluded earlier this week, the portal is currently open for candidates to submit their institutional and departmental preferences. Tomorrow, January 9, marks the final day for students to finalize these selections.

• Critical Deadline: The web portal for entering preferences will remain active until tomorrow. Candidates are advised to complete their submissions well before the evening cutoff to avoid technical glitches.
• Process Requirements: Only those candidates who successfully purchased their PIN by January 4 and completed physical document verification at designated help centers by January 5 are eligible to participate in this Stage.
• Automatic Locking: While manual locking is encouraged, the system is designed to automatically lock the last saved preferences once the deadline expires, ensuring all eligible candidates are considered for a Vacancy.

Seat Matrix and Merit List Dynamics

The third round of Counselling in Gujarat is operating under a revised seat matrix that accounts for vacancies remaining after the first two rounds of Admission.

• Available Positions: Following the conclusion of Round 2, several clinical and non-clinical positions were returned to the state pool, creating a fresh Entry point for those seeking upgrades or initial allotments.
• Merit-Based Allocation: ACPPGMEC will process allotments based on the NEET PG 2025 state merit rank. The committee has emphasized that no new registrations will be permitted during the choice-filling window.
• Category Shifts: In accordance with state policy, any reserved category seats that remain unfilled after exhausting the respective category's merit list may be converted to unreserved seats during the final processing of this round.
