What Is the Karnataka NEET PG Mock Allotment?

The mock allotment is a preliminary seat allocation exercise conducted during the counselling process.

It helps candidates understand their chances of securing a postgraduate medical seat based on their NEET PG rank, reservation category, seat availability and submitted college preferences.

The mock allotment is not a final admission offer. It is intended to help candidates evaluate their choices before the actual Round 1 seat allotment.

For example, a candidate who receives a tentative MD General Medicine seat at a particular medical college can use this information to reassess their preferences and consider whether other colleges or specialisations should be placed higher on their list.

The mock allotment also helps candidates identify whether their current preference order needs modification.

Candidates Can Modify, Add or Reorder College Preferences

Following the release of the mock allotment, KEA has provided an opportunity for candidates to revise their submitted options.

The option modification facility allows candidates to:

• Add additional medical colleges to their preference list.
• Delete colleges or courses they are no longer interested in.
• Modify existing college and course preferences.
• Reorder preferences based on their admission priorities.

Candidates should carefully review their choices before making changes.

It is important to remember that the order of preferences plays a significant role in the seat allotment process. Candidates should arrange their preferred colleges and postgraduate specialisations according to their genuine admission priorities.

The option modification window closes at 10:00 AM on November 5, 2026.

Karnataka NEET PG 2026 Round 1 Final Seat Allotment on November 6

Following the completion of the option modification process, the Karnataka Examinations Authority will proceed with the first-round seat allocation.

The provisional Round 1 allotment is scheduled for November 5, 2026, after 8:00 PM, followed by the final seat allotment on November 6, 2026, after 11:00 AM.

The actual seat allocation will depend on several factors, including:

• NEET PG 2026 All India Rank.
• Candidate’s reservation category.
• Availability of postgraduate medical seats.
• College and course preferences.
• Applicable admission eligibility requirements.

Candidates who receive seats in the final allotment will need to follow KEA’s subsequent instructions regarding seat acceptance, fee payment, document submission and reporting to the allotted medical college.

The detailed admission and reporting schedule should be checked through the official KEA portal.
