Kerala NEET MDS Choice Filling & Locking Guidelines

Choice filling allows candidates to select their preferred dental colleges and specialised MDS branches:

• Eligibility: Only candidates featured in the Kerala State NEET MDS Rank List can submit options.

• Priority Order: Candidates should list their preferred choices in descending order of priority (highest preference at the top).

• Choice Locking: Candidates must lock their choices before the specified deadline.

• Auto-Locking: If a candidate fails to lock their choices manually before the cutoff, the last saved options will be automatically locked by the system.

• Strategy Note: Add only those college-course combinations you are genuinely willing to join, as non-joining post-allotment can lead to forfeiture of higher options in subsequent rounds.
