No DM Gastroenterology admission in India requires candidates to qualify for National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for Super Specialty (NEET-SS).
NEET-SS is an important exam for DM and other super-specialty medical courses. Without clearing this exam, candidates cannot get admission to top medical colleges.
