Jharkhand NEET UG Round 3 Merit List 2026 Revised: Check MBBS & BDS Details

Why Was the Jharkhand NEET Merit List Revised?
JCECEB has issued multiple notices during September regarding correction in the State Merit List based on NEET UG 2026 results. The counselling notice page lists correction-related notices dated September 1, September 4, September 12, September 17 and September 21.
The revised Round 3 merit list was subsequently published on September 28. Therefore, candidates should use the latest revised list when checking their eligibility for Round 3 rather than an earlier version. The revision does not mean that every candidate's rank has changed. Candidates should verify their own entry in the latest PDF and follow the current counselling schedule.

Can Your NEET Rank Get You a Jharkhand MBBS or BDS Seat?
The merit list establishes the candidate's position for the state counselling process, but merit position alone does not guarantee a particular college or course. Actual allotment depends on factors such as the candidate's merit position, category, applicable quota, choices submitted and seats available during the round. Candidates should therefore compare their NEET rank and category with the available Round 3 choices, rather than relying only on a general marks-based estimate.
Talk to a Senior Before Finalising Your Medical College Choices
A merit list can tell you where you stand, but it cannot explain what daily life is like inside a medical college. Candidates can speak with verified medical seniors through OGcollege Talk to Seniors to ask about academics, clinical exposure, hostel life, patient load, internships and campus environment. This can be especially useful for students who have multiple MBBS or BDS options available during Round 3 and want practical student-level information before finalising their choices.

The Jharkhand NEET UG Round 3 Revised State Merit List 2026 has been released by JCECEB on September 28, 2026 for state quota admissions to MBBS, BDS and BHMS courses. Candidates should check this revised version before proceeding with their Round 3 choices.
