Candidates should therefore prepare their choice preferences carefully and keep their options aligned with the vacancies and categories applicable to them.

Candidates participating in Rajasthan NEET UG Counselling 2026 Round 2 should complete their registration, applicable payments and choice filling within the prescribed deadlines.

All applications, payments and choices should be submitted through the official counselling portal: ug.neetRajasthan.com.
