WBJEE 2026 Counselling Rounds
The board will conduct three rounds for seat allocation. In the first round, seats are given based on the candidate's rank and their preferred choices. In the second round, those who got a seat can move to a higher preference if they want. This is called the upgradation round. The third round is the mop-up round, which is only held if there are still seats left. During the upgrade round, new candidates can't register or change their choices. However, the board may call new candidates for the mop-up round if needed.
