The Admission Committee for Professional Post Graduate Medical Courses (ACPPGMEC) has released a revised provisional merit list for the Gujarat NEET PG 2025 counselling. The updated list declares 4,790 candidates eligible for admission to postgraduate medical courses across Gujarat’s medical colleges. This revision comes after a thorough review process, which reduced the number of ineligible applicants from an initial 140 down to 113 .
Initially, 140 students were provisionally marked as ineligible for the admission process. Following a period where candidates could resubmit necessary documents, the committee conducted a comprehensive re-evaluation. This review successfully reclassified 27 previously ineligible candidates as eligible, culminating in the current count of 113 ineligible applicants.
Reasons for Ineligibility
The reasons for a candidate’s ineligibility for Gujarat NEET PG counselling 2025 are diverse and specific. Primary issues identified included candidates possessing insufficient marks in their qualifying examinations. Many cases showed mismatches between the aggregate marks reported by students and the official figures on their MBBS marksheets. Other disqualifications arose from the submission of unverified or invalid documents, or candidates failing to meet the minimum percentile scores required by the NEET PG cut-offs.
Quota Specifics and Incentives
The committee also finalized eligibility for various reserved categories. Fourteen candidates were specifically identified as eligible solely for the Non-Resident Indian (NRI) quota. In addition, a separate group of 47 candidates met the criteria for eligibility across multiple categories, including NRI, government, and management quotas. These distinctions ensure fair allocation of seats based on predefined reservation policies.
Furthermore, 29 in-service candidates have been awarded incentive marks. These additional marks are directly linked to their years of professional experience, reflecting a policy designed to recognize their service. These incentives can significantly impact their final standing in the merit list.
Key Dates and Counselling Process
Prospective postgraduate medical students must monitor the official website, medadmgujarat.org , for upcoming announcements. The Admission Committee will soon release the precise dates for Gujarat NEET PG Round 1 counselling. The subsequent stages of the counselling process will include choice filling, where candidates select their preferred courses and colleges, followed by the locking of these choices, the declaration of seat allotment results, and finally, reporting to the assigned medical colleges.
Tie-Breaking Rules Applied
To ensure a precise ranking system, specific tie-breaking rules were implemented for 211 candidates with identical NEET PG 2025 ranks. In these instances, the aggregate marks obtained in their MBBS examinations and, where applicable, the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) were used as the definitive criteria to resolve the ties and determine the final merit order.
