Counselling for 15% seats Pan India

This counselling is done by Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). The webpage of MCC becomes active after results of NEET are declared. One has to fill up the counselling forms and deposit the required advance fees. One can opt for government medical colleges in the 15% category, but the merit is very high.
