COMEDK UGET
Consortium of Medical, Engineering and Dental Colleges of Karnataka — UGET
About this exam — pattern, marking, syllabus and where it leadsShowHide
COMEDK UGET is the entrance test for the private engineering colleges of Karnataka — RV, BMS, Ramaiah, PES and around 150 others. Since NEET took over medical admissions it tests for engineering only. There is no negative marking, which changes the strategy completely: there is never a reason to leave a question blank. Multiple sessions are normalised to percentiles, and the rank is on the percentile.
- Duration
- One paper. The 2026 brochure does not state a duration; three hours is the widely reported figure.
- Papers
- One paper: Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, with free movement between sections.
- Mode
- Computer-based test, conducted jointly with Uni-GAUGE E on one application.
Question formats
- Physics — 60 four-option MCQs, single correct
- Chemistry — 60 four-option MCQs, single correct
- Mathematics — 60 four-option MCQs, single correct
Marking
| Question type | Correct | Partial | Incorrect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Every question | +1 | — | No negative marking — stated twice in the official brochure. Never leave a question blank. |

Eligibility and admissions
These change from year to year. Always confirm against the current information brochure before acting on anything here.
- Conducted by:
- The Consortium of Medical, Engineering and Dental Colleges of Karnataka, for KUPECA.
- Scoring:
- Percentile normalisation across sessions, in line with NTA and IIT practice. Ranks are on the percentile, not the raw mark.
- Tie-break:
- Percentile in Physics and Mathematics together, then Mathematics, then Chemistry, then the elder candidate. The older 'fewest wrong answers' rule cannot apply — there are no negatives to count.
- Eligibility:
- Class 12 with Physics, Mathematics and English compulsory plus one of Chemistry, Biotechnology, Biology, Computer Science or Electronics; about 45% in PCM, all from a single board. Diploma holders are not eligible and there is no lateral entry.
Where this exam leads
All private — there is no government route through this exam
About 150 KUPECA member colleges and roughly 20,000 seats.
RV College of Engineering · BMS College of Engineering · MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology · PES University · Bangalore Institute of Technology · Dayananda Sagar · BNMIT · Siddaganga Institute of Technology · JSS · KLE · SDM · New Horizon · Reva · Presidency · CMR · Acharya · Global Academy of Technology · Sahyadri
Grouped by band rather than ranked one by one, because the ordering changes yearly and a branch at one institute is often worth more than a seat at a higher-ranked one. Check NIRF and the official counselling data before setting your preferences.
We do not publish closing ranks for this exam. Its counselling data is not released in a form we can verify institute by institute, and a plausible-looking invented number is worse than none — take the cut-offs from the conducting body's own counselling reports.
Courses offered
- • B.Tech / B.E. — Computer Science and its variants, which take the highest cut-offs almost everywhere
- • B.Tech / B.E. — Electronics, Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, Chemical
- • Interdisciplinary programmes: Data Science, AI, Mathematics and Computing, Engineering Physics
- • Dual-degree and five-year integrated B.Tech–M.Tech programmes at several institutes
