Government and Private College Willingness Mentioned
An important feature of the Round 2 provisional merit list is that BFUHS has also mentioned the type of institutions for which each candidate submitted willingness.
Depending on the individual candidate, the list shows options such as:
- Government Colleges only
- Private Colleges only
- Private and Government Colleges
The list also separately indicates whether candidates are eligible for 85% State Quota seats.
Candidates should therefore check not only their State Merit Number but also the willingness and eligibility information displayed against their names.
What Candidates Should Check in the Merit List
Candidates who have applied or submitted willingness for Punjab NEET UG Round 2 should carefully verify the following details:
- State Merit Number
- Registration Number
- NEET Roll Number
- NEET Marks
- NEET Rank
- Candidate Name
- Gender
- Minority status, where applicable
- Categories
- Willingness submitted for Government/Private colleges
- Eligibility for 85% State Quota seats
If candidates find any discrepancy, they should follow the objection/correction procedure and timeline notified by BFUHS rather than relying solely on the provisional list.
Merit List Is Provisional
Candidates should note that this is a provisional combined merit list, not the Round 2 seat allotment result.
Inclusion in the merit list does not itself mean that an MBBS or BDS seat has been allotted. Seat allotment will depend on the applicable counselling rules, merit, choices/preferences, category, eligibility and seat availability.
Candidates should therefore continue to monitor BFUHS notifications for the subsequent choice-filling, allotment and admission process
