NEET UG Counselling: Everything You Need to Know
Clearing the NEET UG examination is a significant milestone for every medical aspirant. However, getting admission into a preferred medical college depends not only on your NEET score but also on making the right decisions during counselling.
Many students lose good opportunities due to incorrect choice filling, lack of awareness about counselling rounds, or missing important deadlines. Understanding the counselling process can greatly improve your chances of securing admission.
At iUniversity by IYDA, we provide expert counselling guidance to help students confidently navigate every stage of the admission process.
