What NEET 85% State Quota Counselling 2026 Covers
The NEET 85% state quota counselling 2026 process allows states to conduct their own counselling for MBBS, BDS, Nursing, and AYUSH seats within their respective territories, separate from the Medical Counselling Committee's All India Quota process. Since each state authority sets its own schedule, candidates applying across multiple states need to track each timeline independently.
With West Bengal in its verification phase, Assam in choice filling, and Uttarakhand still accepting registrations and choices, candidates eligible in more than one state should prioritise their preferred state now and avoid missing any state-specific verification or choice locking deadline over the coming days.
