Important Notes:
- MCC clearly mentions: No holidays will be observed during counselling. That means even weekends are considered working days.
- Choice filling and locking are separate steps. Lock your choices carefully, or they’ll be auto-locked.
- If you miss a round, you’ll have to wait for the next — no exceptions.
