The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) will release the first practice list for medical postgraduate admissions, known as the Karnataka NEET PG Mock Allotment 2025, on November 21, 2025 . This important step helps students understand their potential college and course placements before the final seats are given out.
The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for Postgraduate (NEET PG) is a key exam for students who want to study further in medical fields after their MBBS degree. The KEA is responsible for conducting the counselling process for these admissions in Karnataka. The mock allotment is not a final decision. Instead, it works like a trial run. It shows students which colleges and medical specialisations they might get based on their preferred choices and their NEET PG exam scores.
What is the Mock Allotment and Why is it Important?
Imagine you are making a big decision about which college to join. The Mock Allotment gives you a sneak peek. It helps students see where they stand against other applicants. When students apply for counselling, they list colleges and courses in order of their preference. They also have a rank from their NEET PG exam. The KEA uses this information to create the mock list. This way, students get a clear idea of their chances for different institutions and medical fields like surgery or general medicine.
The main purpose of this practice list is to help students make smart choices. If a student sees they might not get their top choice in the mock list, they can change their preference order. This allows them to improve their chances of securing a good seat in the final rounds. It removes some guesswork and helps students plan better.
Option Entry Period: Make Your Choices Count
After reviewing the mock allotment on November 21, 2025 , students will have a specific time window to change their college and course choices. This period, called the Karnataka NEET PG Round 1 Option Entry 2025, is scheduled from November 21, 2025, at 5 PM till November 24, 2025, at 10 AM .
During these days, students can make important adjustments to their preference list. They can add new colleges or courses that they find desirable after seeing the mock results. Students can also remove options that they no longer wish to consider. Most importantly, they can reorder or reprioritise their preferred colleges and specialisations. For example, if a student sees that a certain college they ranked low is available in the mock list, they might move it higher up their preference list. These strategic changes help students increase their likelihood of getting a favorable seat in the final allotment.
