Dear Kevin, NEET is the mandatory exam you need to qualify for studying Medicine in India and foreign countries. IMAT is conducted by the Italian Ministry of Education to study specifically in their country. But NEET is the first entrance examination that you need to qualify even to send your application to the Embassy for a student visa. So if you want to study in Italy, NEET and IMAT are mandatory. NEET is the primary requisite for you to be able to apply for Medical Colleges abroad and IMAT for you to be able to apply for their Universities.

NO, you're wrong. I contacted the Uni-Italia office. NEET is not required to study medicine in Italy. Only the IMAT is
required. And IMAT is used for international students as well as Italian students.

Please also contact the India Embassy and they will educate you with the complete process. If you want to visit an International University from India, you need to get approval from the Indian Embassy first. NEET is not required to study Medicine not just in Italy but any foreign University. Qualifying in NEET is mandatory to study MBBS abroad. Both of them are 2 different things.
