The confirmation is mandatory for all eligible NEET UG candidates in Kerala. Students who joined Round 1 and want an upgrade must re-enter. Candidates who did not get a Round 1 seat must also participate.
Failure to confirm options leads to automatic cancellation of higher preferences. Only the current Round 1 seat, if any, will stay valid.
