Hi, I'm from Karnataka,I have applied for KCET but I'm not writing KCET, I'm writing Only NEET,is there any problem during NEET counseling

NEET is the entrance examination for admission to MBBS,BDS, Ayush and Veterinary courses across India. It is a National level Entrance examination if you want to study MBBS, BDS, Ayush or Veterinary courses across India. But KCET is a State Level Entrance examination for admission to Engineering, Agricultural and Pharmaceutical courses. So both the exams have different out reaches. If you want to study MBBS/BDS/Ayush/Veterinary courses, NEET is the exam that you have to attempt. And you not appearing for KCET doesn't hold any importance during NEET Counselling.

And because you have 2 more months to prepare for NEET, you may as well use this opportunity
