Im writing comedk exam is it ok for medical career

Subhalaxmi Biswal 26th May, 2022

Hello Aspirant,

COMEDK UGET is a state-level exam administered by the Consortium of Medical, Engineering, and Dental Colleges of Karnataka (COMEDK) for access to undergraduate courses.

The COMEDK UGET exam is available to all candidates of Indian nationality.

COMEDK exam cannot earn you admission to Medical Colleges.

It was legislated by the HRD Ministry in 2015–2016 noting that only NEET will be evaluated as a reliable examination for admission to any medical college in the country.

Hence, no medical colleges are under COMEDK.

Hence, you have to appear for the NEET exam for your medical career.

I hope it helps.

Thank you.

Yogita 25th Apr, 2022

Hello aspirant,

Hope you are doing well..!!!


Indeed, you are qualified to show up for MCAT Examination in US or Canada.


The Eligibility standards says that : Any competitors keen on chasing after vocation in Allopathic, Osteopathic, Podiatric and Veterinary can show up for the MCAT test. Understudies from U.S. what's more, Canada should have an UG degree to be qualified for the test . Worldwide applicants should be seeking after or have finished MBBS to sit for MCAT.


An up-and-comer is qualified for taking the MCAT if he/she intends to go to a wellbeing proficient school, which incorporates Allopathic, Osteopathic, Podiatric and Veterinary Medicine . In the event that you've finished (or seeking after) a MBBS degree program, you needn't bother with an exceptional authorization to sit for the test.


Hope this information helps you!!!

All the best!!!
