Hello,

There is no fresh registration for Odisha NEET PG Round 2 .
Only candidates who registered in Round 1 can take part in Round 2.

You have to log in with the same Round 1 ID and password .
Then do choice filling and locking when the Round 2 window opens.

Candidates who did not register in Round 1 are not eligible for Round 2.

All Round 2 updates are released by DMET Odisha on the official counselling portal.

Hope it helps !

Hi dear candidate,

Although NEET and paramedical courses (nursing, lab tech etc.) share same core subjects of PCB but the syllabus for NEET is NOT identical with that of paramedical exams as they require extra sections of GK and aptitude that is beyond NEET.

BEST REGARDS

Hello Yashpal

Your plan to shift from online BCA to regular MCA is completely valid and acceptable. The gap years taken for NEET preparation will not affect MCA admission.
You should first try government colleges through exams like NIMCET or CUET-PG for better fees and placements. Top options include NITs, University of Hyderabad, JNU, and Delhi University.
If not, good private choices are VIT, Manipal, SRM, Amrita, and Christ University. Choose a college based on placements, fees, and industry exposure, not just the name.

Hope it helps you, and if you face any other query, you can raise your question directly. We are here to assist you with the best.
