Hi there.

Yes, admissions committees for medical schools consider your MCAT score, as well as your academic record and supporting materials, to assess your foundation for a successful medical career.

While your MCAT score is a crucial application component, it does not determine your prospects of acceptance. This is why, if you apply wisely, you may get into medical school with a low MCAT score.

Hello Student

M CAT examination is taken for pursuing the degree of allopathic, osteopathic, paediatric and veterinary degrees. Foreign nationals are also eligible for appearing the examination to pursue the above mention courses. But for a foreign national exam they have two complete MBBS degree. Eligibility for appearing EAMCET exam Candidate should be graduate of biology related and chemistry combination BSc degree with at least 50% marks. On the other hand they have to qualify in the NEET UG exam also

Hope this will help.

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.

Hello,

The Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) is a computer-based standardized examination

Students from U.S. and Canada must have a Undergraduate degree to be eligible for the exam. International candidates must be pursuing or have completed MBBS to sit for MCAT. Students taking MCAT for purposes other than pursuing a career in medicine are required to get special permission from AAMC authorities.

Thank you.

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!!!

Dear Student ,

No, you can't apply for MCAT as the eligibility criteria for MCAT is as follows :

• For the nationalities except US , Canada:  Should pursuing or completed a MBBS degree
• For US , CANADA: a undergraduate degree

and to obtain MBBS degree , you need to appear for NEET exam .

So, as are you a chemistry 2nd year student  and not a citizen of US or CANADA, so .. you can't apply for MCAT .
