NEET PG
2024 City List: The
National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has released a list
of 185 exam centers nationwide for the NEET PG 2024 exam. Registered candidates
can allocate their preferred exam city on the official website until July 21.
The exam will only be conducted in the cities listed by NBEMS.
The
previous admit cards for the earlier scheduled exam on June 23 in which the
test cities allocation is mentioned are now invalid. Candidates have to again
select their preferred test cities from July 19 to July 21 up to 11.55 pm
through the NBEMS official website by using their NEET PG-2024 login details.
Candidates
must choose four preferred test cities based on their correspondence address
state. If their state is full, they will be offered alternatives in nearby
states. Test city allocation will be random, not based on candidate preference.
The medical
board will inform candidates about their allotted cities via email on July 29,
2024. The test centre venue and examination timings will be communicated
through the admit card released on August 8, 2024, on the NBEMS website http://natboard.edu.in/.
NEET PG 2024: Test City Allotment Issues
The NBEMS website and login page were shared by several NEET
PG aspirants, and they appeared frustrated because they couldn't log in and
select exam centres. The website displayed a message stating, "TCS's
application for NEET PG 2024 test city selection is experiencing issues due to
the ongoing global Microsoft outage. The application will become available once
the issues are resolved by the end of the day."
Some of the candidates questioned the list of NEET PG 2024
cities as well as the lack of clarity in the test city allocation scheme. The
medical board asked candidates to select four exam cities wherein they wish to
appear for the exam. The window for choosing the preferred test cities will be
available till July 21.
Reacting to the random allotment of cities from the
preferred choices by NBEMS, a doctor wrote on X: "This is a serious issue.
They are asking us to list 4 choices for exam centres, but students are being
randomly assigned to one of the 4 centres. How can a student be expected to
travel a long distance to a centre when there may be another centre nearby
their house? This is pathetic."
NEET PG 2024: Counselling Process
NEET PG
2024 counselling dates and schedules will be announced by the Medical
Counselling Committee (MCC). The counselling will begin most likely in the
second week of September 2024. Candidates will have to register on the official

eligible to participate in the seat allotment process. NEET PG counselling
comprises online registration, fee payment, choice declaration, seat allotment
result, and reporting. MCC conducts counselling for 50% of All India Quota
seats while respective state counselling authorities will be conducting
counselling for the rest 50% of AIQ seats. MCC conducts a total of 4 rounds of
counselling for seat allotment in deemed, central universities, 50% AIQ seats,
and 50 State quota seats.
Candidates
have to register online on the official website of MCC, mcc.nic.in. to
participate in the counselling process. Candidates can declare more than one
number of choices based on their preference of college and course. Choices must
be saved and locked before the deadline as there is no option to change them
