COMEDK or Consortium of Medical, Engineering, and Dental Colleges of Karnataka is the soul exam for getting students of the country admitted to the state colleges of Karnataka. There are more than 100 colleges that come under this category.
Most of the colleges that cognate to the Karnataka engineering test have an easy access to the IT sector, thus, students have a greater probability of easy job offers. In a nutshell, students have a better industrial exposure.
But, it should be noted that the engineering colleges in Karnataka demand big chunks of yearly tuition fees.
Also any student should opt for this examination if and only if he doesn’t intend to spend another year for preparation to get into still better colleges or in other words it should kept amongst the last of the choices. Although these colleges are good but certainly not as good as the IIT’s or NIT’s. So, COMEDK this should just be treated as an option and not goal.

Type of questions
         The type of questions in this exam are not the tricky ones and can be solved without putting much effort. For scoring high in this paper you should be thorough with the NCERT text.
         Especially for the Chemistry and Physics section you get some direct equations or formulae. For e.g. Direct equation of esterification or the formula for the range of the projectile can be asked.
        Also, the Mathematics paper doesn’t require steady calculations but with some mental calculations you can certainly get to the answers.
        Format of the Question Paper
        The examination is conducted in two seatings.The Physics and the Chemistry papers will be combined and Mathematics as a separate paper. There are 50 questions each for the physics, Chemistry and Mathematics section. You are roughly allotted a minute and 20 seconds for each question. So questions that demand a bit of calculations should be dealt by the process of elimination
   Selection and Counselling
         Selection of students in the examination will be completely merit based. The students will be called for counselling depending on their rank secured in the entrance test.
         Scoring about 80% of the maximum marks will secure you a decent rank of 500 or below.
        To secure a seat in top 5 colleges of Karnataka you should rank within 2000.
         There are three rounds of counselling for the admission of students and you will be given your date of counselling on the basis of your rank.
