COMEDK UGET 2014 Rank Predictor: How to calculate ranks & scores

Consortium of Medical, Engineering and Dental Colleges of Karnataka (COMEDK) conducts the under-graduate entrance test (UGET) to offer admissions to eligible candidates in member institutions of the Karnataka Professional Colleges Foundation Trust (KPCF). Through COMEDK UGET 2014, candidates will be offered admissions into 14 medical, 25 dental and more than 150 engineering colleges in the state of Karnataka. There are around 20,000 seats available for admission through COMEDK UGET.

The Karnataka Professional Educational Institutions Act, 2006 is being implemented from the year 2014. As per this Act, there will be only two entrance exams in Karnataka through which candidates can get admitted into professional courses of medicine and engineering. These entrance exams are Karnataka CET (KCET) and the COMEDK UGET.

How to calculate COMEDK UGET 2014 scores

The COMEDK UGET question paper for B.E. consists of 60 questions each from physics, chemistry and mathematics, making the total number of questions to be attempted to be 180. For candidates appearing for both B.E. and MBBS/BDS, 60 questions each will be asked from subjects such as physics, chemistry, mathematics, biology and English.

Candidates seeking admission for Medical / Dental courses will have to satisfy the eligibility norms prescribed by MCI/DCI, besides clearing their eligibility in English. Herein, general merit candidates need to score 50% and SC, ST and OBC candidates of Karnataka need to score 40%, which is mandatory for allocation of rank. However, ranks in COMEDK UGET 2014 will be allotted only on the basis of a candidate’s score in physics, chemistry and biology in the entrance test.

In COMED UGET 2014 there is no negative marking but for every correct answer the candidate will be awarded one mark. However, no marks will be awarded if a candidate ticks multiple answers for a question.

The test scores will be published on the official website of COMEDK UGET 2014 on May 30, 2014.

• Mathematics marks: The candidate who has scored higher marks in mathematics in the entrance test would be considered to have a higher rank.
• Age: The candidate who is older will be ranked higher than a younger candidate with the same score.
