Step 3: Filling and Locking of Choices

• The option to edit and submit the final choice will expire on the due date at 5:00 pm and the choices filled so far will be locked automatically. If a candidate fails to lock their choices within the pre-announced deadline, they will not be given any allotment in the current cycle but will be considered in the next cycle and will have the opportunity to submit choices in the next cycle(s).

Points to Remember during Choice Filling:

• Before filling the choices, make sure to check WBJEE cutoff to know your chances of entering the participating institutes.
• Once choices are locked, candidates will not be allowed to make any changes thereafter.
• Candidates must take a print out of the selected choices after confirming them for future reference.
