What is the Kerala NEET PG 2025 Merit List?
The Kerala NEET PG 2025 Merit List is an official document that contains the names of all eligible students. These are students who have successfully applied for postgraduate medical courses in Kerala and met all the necessary requirements. Only students whose names appear on this official list are considered qualified to participate in the next stages of the admission process, known as counselling.
This list is very important because it determines who gets a chance to choose a postgraduate medical college and course in Kerala. It confirms that the student's application was complete and correct, making them eligible to compete for available seats.
Understanding the Defective Application List
Before releasing the final merit list, CEE Kerala had published a 'Defective Application List'. This list was for students whose application forms had some errors or missing information. For instance, a student might have uploaded an unclear photograph, missed a signature, or entered incorrect academic details. The main reason for this defective list was to give students a chance to fix these problems.
Students whose applications were on this list were given a deadline to correct their errors. The last date to fix these application problems was October 27, 2025 . After this date, no further corrections were allowed, and CEE Kerala then started to prepare the final merit list using only the corrected and complete applications.
How to Check and Download the Merit List
Once released, students can easily check and download the Kerala NEET PG 2025 Merit List online. Follow these simple steps:
- Step 1: Go to the official website of the Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE) Kerala. The website address is cee.kerala.gov.in .

It is important for all students to carefully check their name, roll number, and other personal and academic details on the downloaded merit list to ensure everything is accurate.
What Happens After the Merit List?
The release of the merit list is an important stage in the admission process for postgraduate medical courses. After the merit list is published, the next major step for eligible students is the counselling process. During counselling, students will get the opportunity to choose their preferred postgraduate medical colleges and specific courses. This selection will be based on their rank in the merit list and the availability of seats.
CEE Kerala will soon announce the detailed schedule and guidelines for the counselling rounds. Students are strongly advised to regularly visit the official CEE Kerala website, cee.kerala.gov.in , for all the latest updates and announcements regarding the counselling schedule and further admission procedures. Staying updated is key to not missing any important deadlines or steps.
