1. Filling in the Choices without Proper Research

One of the most common mistakes that most of the students repeat during NEET counselling is that they fill in their choices of institutions without proper research, which sometimes leads to allotment of an institution or college in which they won’t be getting admission. Therefore, it is suggested that the students must always try to research about the institutions they are selecting in the counselling rounds.

2. Failing to Lock Choices on time or locking them too early

Sometimes students forget to lock their choices, which allows the system to auto-lock choices or even some locks them too early without exploring the available options.

4. Losing Important Documents

During the admission phase, it is most important that the students must have all the required documents in correct and up-to-date form; however, sometimes students forget their important documents or might lose any of them. Therefore, it is timely reminded by the authorities to them to collect and have al, the required documents available at the time of admission.

5. Skipping the Mop-up or Stray Vacancy Rounds

Some of the students drop out of the counselling process midway, assuming that they would lose their chance; however, there are always chances of getting better options in the mop-up or stray vacancy rounds.
