The West Bengal Medical Counselling Committee (WBMCC) will release the Round 1 seat allotment result for NEET UG 2025 counselling today, bringing relief to thousands of MBBS and BDS aspirants across the state. The announcement comes after a brief delay caused by technical and administrative reasons.
Revised counselling schedule
According to WBMCC, the fresh counselling timeline has been updated on the official portal. Candidates who are allotted seats in Round 1 will have to download their allotment letters, pay the admission fee, and report to their respective colleges within the stipulated time.
The revised schedule is as follows:
Round 1 seat allotment result: August 23, 2025
Reporting to allotted colleges: August 24 to 28, 2025
