Gujarat medical round 2: 2,212 MBBS and BDS seats still open, choices close 11 September
A total of 1,587 MBBS and 625 BDS seats went unfilled after round 1 of Gujarat’s NEET UG counselling. Choice filling for the second round runs to 4 pm on 11 September, with 16,196 candidates eligible.
Gujarat’s medical and dental admissions have moved into their second round with more than two thousand seats still on the table, giving candidates who missed out in round 1, or who never registered, a second chance.
What is vacant
- 2,212 seats in total across the state’s medical and dental colleges.
- MBBS: 1,587 seats. Of these, 785 were never allotted in round 1, 752 were allotted but the candidate did not report, and 50 are newly sanctioned seats at Ananya College.
- BDS: 625 seats.
Who can take part
The Admission Committee for Professional Undergraduate and Postgraduate Medical Educational Courses (ACPMEC) has put 16,196 candidates on the eligible list for the 2026-27 round, including 234 students who registered late and have now been added to the provisional merit list.
The deadline that matters
Choice filling and modification opened on 7 September and closes at 4 pm on 11 September. A no-show in round 1 does not bar you from round 2, but a missed choice-filling deadline does. The committee allots strictly from the choices on record when the window shuts.
If you are holding a round 1 seat you are not happy with, read your college’s upgrade and withdrawal rules before you re-fill choices: in most state counselling systems, accepting a fresh allotment cancels the earlier one.
