Why NEET PG counselling is conducted?
NEET PG counselling is held to allocate postgraduate medical seats (MD, MS, PG Diploma) to qualified candidates based on their NEET PG exam scores. The purpose of the counseling process is to ensure a fair and transparent seat allocation to various medical colleges and institutions across India. It allows candidates to choose their preferred courses and institutions, while also considering factors like merit, reservation policies, and seat availability. Key reasons for conducting NEET PG counselling include:
-
Merit-Based Allocation: Ensures that candidates are allotted seats based on their NEET PG rank and preferences.
-
Choice of Institution: Allows candidates to select their desired medical college or specialty based on availability and personal preference.
-
Reservation Policies: Ensures that seats are allocated according to the reservation policies for different categories (SC, ST, OBC, EWS, etc.).
This process is usually conducted in multiple rounds, including mop-up rounds to fill any vacant seats after the main counselling rounds are completed.

NEET PG 2024 result normalisation
NEET PG 2024 does not follow a percentile-based result normalization process like some other exams. Instead, it uses a direct score-based ranking system. The scoring is based on a candidate's performance in the exam, and the result is declared in the form of a rank and score out of 800. The key factors include:
-
Raw Score: NEET PG scores are calculated based on the number of correct answers, where 4 marks are awarded for each correct response, and 1 mark is deducted for each incorrect answer.
-
Tie-Breaking Criteria: If two or more candidates score the same marks, a tie-breaking rule is applied, which prioritizes candidates based on factors like the number of correct responses, age, and other predetermined criteria.
Unlike exams that use normalization to adjust scores across multiple shifts, NEET PG is held in a single session for all candidates, so there is no need for normalization of scores across different exam sets or dates.
