In common counselling students will be able to know which college they are getting out of their state quota and All India quota.
This will save time and money of 1 lakh students as well as their families every year and also students will be able to start their studies soon after selecting their choice of college. Apart from this, initially 5 months time will be available for studies.
In the proposal, 85% quota is demanded for the state and 15% quota is for All India. Similarly for PG, 50% state quota and 50% all India quota will be allotted. This year 20,87,449 students registered for NEET.

How long does the counselling take?
The process of seat allotment after NEET is long. Counseling itself takes 5 months.
How will the common counselling be done?
You will not have to go through 5 rounds in this counseling. There will be only one round for admission to more than one lakh seats. Eligible candidates will be able to get admission in this.

Proposal sent to Health Secretary-VC of the states
Prof. Goyal has sent the proposal to the Director of Medical Education, Health Secretary and VC of Medical Universities of the states. The reason behind this has been attributed to guidelines received from different courts and requests by colleges and candidates to make counselling easier. It is also mentioned that every state has different rules of reservation. For its solution, the names of educationists have been sought for the nodal officer. The educationist concerned should know the nuances of the counseling process including reservation for appointment.
