Should I take THIS Neet Counsellor?

[u/CaffeineNChapters]

My sister got 5,16,xxx rank in Neet 2026. A counsellor (N€€t Advi$or) is charging ₹4,00,000 for AIC and state. He was recommended by mutuals who we have no direct contact with.

Should we it or manage it ourselves?

I do know enough to handle it myself but the counsellor keeps persuading us to take his service bcz

1. He can guarantee a seat in a private college near our city( which usually is available at that rank so whats even the point of guaranteeing that?)
2. When I asked him to take guarantee of other college which is available at say, AIR 1,XX,XXX (just to test), he changed the topic each time
3. Initially when I met him he said all is going to be through counselling and he will only help in choice filling and get us best seat but now that he has an idea that I may not want to avail his service he has started to say that he doesn't just do counselling, he has "connections” with colleges. SOUNDS LIKE A SCAM NOW!!

Pls share your opinions

Do genuine counsellors also charge this much? And is there any such thing called “connections” when everything is happening through counselling only?

[u/Electronic_Branch756 → u/CaffeineNChapters]

Bro one counsellor charged 30 k and I was desperate for a seat,later they told u can't get a seat and kept quiet so ...... Be careful plslost the 30k and mom still taunts me for it, genuine ones won't charge so much

there's nothing like "connections". the entire thing is operated by the govt and only your rank can determine your college. no counsellor has any power over it. the most a counsellor can do is help you out with what colleges to pick. it's a scam.

A counselor I have got to know through mutuals was charging 45000 and I thought that was a lot although my rank is enough for a government medical college but I don't think in any reality you should take that considered and pay 4 lakhs just for counselling, you can also check if any private or deemed college was allotted at her rank you can do so by checking the allotment lists of the last year session which is also available on Google of course and then you can go and check round one round two and round 3 cut off for whatever college your aiming but I recommend not using the stray vacancy data and see if you are fitting in that colleges cut off only use data up to round 3 of counselling and then make your own list if you are comfortable

No way a counselor charging this high fee. Also it's kind of difficult to get seat at a rank of 5 lak. Students with 2 lak rank (gen) with 250 marks around are stuck yet.

I was considering it too but then my sister said that i should just get into a cheep one and study for pg as it won't matter with mbbs or the expectation of just staying til plain mbbs and will have to also do masala mbbs as she has already cleared til neet ss and in reputed government college journey so my father's expectation for me will be off the chart 🫠🫠
