- Keep the standard document checklist ready - NEET UG admit card and scorecard, Class 10 and 12 marksheets, domicile/residence certificate, category certificate (if applicable), passport-size photos, and valid ID proof - keep both originals and photocopies ready for verification.
❓ FAQs
Is KEAM the same as Kerala MBBS counselling?
No - KEAM is Kerala's engineering/pharmacy/architecture entrance. MBBS/BDS admission in Kerala runs entirely on the NEET UG rank via CEE Kerala.
