WB NEET UG Revised Merit List 2026 Out
The revised merit list determines which registered candidates are eligible to participate in the first round of choice filling.
Candidates should download the list and verify their:
- Name
- NEET UG rank

- Category/status, where displayed
- Other candidate information
The official WBMCC portal currently lists the Provisional List of Candidates for Round 1 along with the revised Round 1 schedule and seat matrix.
10,085 Candidates Eligible for Round 1 Choice Filling
According to the revised merit list, 10,085 candidates are eligible for Round 1 choice filling.
These candidates can submit their preferred medical and dental colleges and courses through the WBMCC counselling portal.
Choice filling is a crucial stage because the order in which candidates arrange their preferences is considered during seat allotment.
Candidates should therefore avoid filling choices randomly.
A sensible approach is:
Most Preferred College
↓
Next Preferred College
↓
Other Acceptable Colleges
↓
Backup Choices
Candidates should include only colleges and courses they are genuinely willing to join.

WB NEET UG Round 1 Choice Filling 2026
Candidates included in the revised merit list can proceed with Round 1 choice filling according to the counselling schedule.
During this process, candidates select and arrange their preferred colleges and courses.
India Today states that candidates should carefully arrange their choices before submission because preference order is considered during the seat-allotment process.
Candidates should review the participating institutes and Round 1 seat matrix before finalizing their preferences.
The official WBMCC UG counselling page currently provides both the participating institutes list and Round 1 seat matrix.
WB NEET UG Round 1 Revised Schedule
WBMCC has published a Revised Schedule for Round 1 dated August 20, 2026 on its official counselling portal.
Candidates should use this revised schedule rather than relying on an older timetable.
Any subsequent WBMCC notice should take precedence over previously published dates.
How to Fill Choices for WB NEET UG Counselling 2026
Eligible candidates should:
- Open the WBMCC counselling portal.
- Access the candidate registration/login facility.
- Sign in using the required credentials.
- Open the Round 1 choice-filling facility.
- Review available colleges and courses.
- Add preferred choices.
- Arrange colleges in genuine preference order.
- Review all selected choices carefully.
- Complete the prescribed submission/locking process.
- Preserve confirmation details for future reference.
Candidates should not wait until the last moment to complete the process.
How WB NEET UG Round 1 Seat Allotment Works
After choice filling closes, WBMCC will conduct the Round 1 seat-allotment process.
The allocation broadly depends on:
NEET UG Merit + Candidate Eligibility + Category + Choices Submitted + Preference Order + Available Seats + Applicable Reservation Rules
India Today confirms that seat allotment will be conducted after choice filling based on candidates' merit, preferences and applicable counselling rules.
Seats Covered Under WBMCC Counselling
WBMCC conducts online counselling for undergraduate medical and dental admissions in West Bengal.
According to the official counselling authority, this includes 85% State Quota seats in government medical and dental colleges. The process also covers applicable State Quota, Management Quota and NRI Quota seats in private institutions under the prescribed rules.
Candidates must have qualified NEET UG 2026 and satisfy WBMCC's applicable eligibility conditions.
Government and Private Medical College Seats
The West Bengal state counselling framework covers multiple types of participating seats.
| Institution/Seat Type | WBMCC Counselling |
|---|---|
| Government Medical Colleges – State Quota | Yes |
| Government Dental Colleges – State Quota | Yes |
| Private Medical Colleges – State Quota | Yes |
| Private Medical Colleges – Management Quota | Yes |
| Private Medical Colleges – NRI Quota | As applicable |
| Private Dental Colleges – State Quota | Yes |
| Private Dental Colleges – Management Quota | Yes |
The precise seat availability for Round 1 should be checked through WBMCC's official seat matrix.
Why Choice Order Matters
Candidates should not simply select colleges without arranging them carefully.
Suppose a candidate enters:
Choice 1 – College A
Choice 2 – College B
Choice 3 – College C
If the candidate is eligible for both College B and College C based on merit and available seats, the counselling system considers the higher preference, subject to the allotment rules.
Candidates should therefore place their genuine first preference at the top.
What Happens After Choice Filling?
The counselling sequence broadly proceeds as:
Registration
↓
Verification/Eligibility
↓
Revised Merit List
↓
Round 1 Choice Filling
↓
Choice Submission/Locking
↓
Round 1 Seat Allotment
↓
Candidate Action and Reporting
↓
Admission
↓
Subsequent Counselling Rounds
Candidates who do not receive their desired seat in Round 1 should monitor WBMCC for subsequent-round instructions.
What If Your Name Is Not in the Revised Merit List?
Candidates whose names do not appear in the revised list should first verify that they are checking the correct document.
They should then review their registration and eligibility status and any relevant notices issued by WBMCC.
Candidates should not assume that qualifying NEET UG alone automatically guarantees inclusion in the West Bengal state counselling merit list. State counselling also requires candidates to satisfy the applicable registration and eligibility conditions.
For unresolved issues, WBMCC lists a counselling help center operating during the counselling schedule.
WB NEET UG Counselling 2026: State Quota vs AIQ
Candidates should distinguish West Bengal state counselling from MCC's national counselling process.
WBMCC handles applicable West Bengal state-level medical and dental counselling.
MCC separately conducts counselling for the applicable All India Quota and other designated institutions/seats.
Candidates participating in both processes should monitor each counselling authority independently because their schedules, choice lists and allotment results are separate.
What Candidates Should Do Now
Candidates included in the revised merit list should prioritize Round 1 choice filling.
Before submitting choices, they should review:
Revised Merit Position → Seat Matrix → Participating Colleges → Fees → Quota Eligibility → College Preferences → Choice Order
Candidates should also save copies of important counselling documents and periodically check the WBMCC portal for any revised notices.
