The steps to apply for NEET PG round 3 registration are as follows:
Candidates who qualify for admission to PG Medical Colleges, according to the updated cut-off percentile, must complete their registration by January 15, 2025. After this deadline, no further opportunities will be provided. According to the official announcement, medical colleges must upload the available PG seats on the MCC portal by 5 PM on January 24. At the same time, the Supreme Court has delayed the hearing on the NEET PG 2024 result transparency, now set for January 21, 2025, instead of the previously scheduled January 8. This comes amid growing concerns from students about the transparency of the examination process and the practices of NBEMS. The outcome of this case could have a significant impact on restoring trust in the system.
