Expert Tips from Radical Education
- Don’t Rush, But Don’t Delay Either
Many students panic and make hasty choices, especially while filling out preferences. Take time to research colleges, but don’t wait till the last minute — the portal often slows down or crashes. - Private Colleges: Be Realistic with Your Budget
If you’re considering private medical colleges, be sure you’re financially prepared. Have a discussion with your parents, and also be aware of hidden charges. - Double-Check Your Documents
Mismatch in documents like your Domicile Certificate or NEET Scorecard can delay verification. Radical’s advice? “Scan, upload, and re-check all documents before submission.” - Make a Smart College Preference List
Don’t just copy others’ preference lists, Your rank, category, and future plans should drive your order.
