  2. Register with MCC for 50% All India Quota, deemed, central university, AFMS and DNB seats, and with your state counselling authority for state-quota seats (state merit lists are prepared by the states).
  3. Fill and lock choices; after Round 1 or 2 allotment decide to Freeze (keep the seat) or Float (seek an upgrade).
  4. Upload documents on the MCC portal, then report/join within the schedule — Round 3 seats cannot be resigned.
