Yes, registering for KCET along with NEET is required for securing a medical seat in Karnataka under the state quota. While NEET is the only entrance exam for MBBS admissions, KCET registration is necessary for participating in the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) counseling process. KEA manages the allotment of government and private medical college seats under the state quota, and only candidates registered through KCET can apply for these seats. However, if you only aim for AIQ (All India Quota) seats, KCET registration is not needed. Ensure you complete all KEA formalities to be eligible for Karnataka medical colleges

Yes for Karnataka medical colleges you need to register for KCET through your NEET marks .To get a seat in a Karnataka medical college, you need to:


1. Appear for NEET

2. Register for KCET (even if you're not writing the exam)

3. Meet the eligibility criteria


After NEET results, participate in Karnataka medical counseling, where your seat will be allotted based on your NEET rank and preferences.

GOOD LUCK!!

I have registered for both KCET and NEET but plan to appear only for NEET. I was informed that registering for KCET is necessary to secure a medical seat in Karnataka. Is this information accurate? Can I still be eligible for admission to Karnataka medical colleges solely based on my NEET score, or is KCET registration mandatory for state quota seats? Kindly clarify the admission process and requirements for medical seats in Karnataka.
