NEET vs AIPMT

NEET is a single national-level examination that encompasses a wider range of seats in medical colleges compared to the AIPMT, which required candidates to clear two stages - Prelims and the Main exam. Earlier, AIPMT was held to secure admission to 15% of the overall seats in medical and dental colleges in India that were operated by Central and State governments or local authorities, except in Andhra Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, and Telangana. In contrast, NEET covers 100% of the seats for admission in all medical colleges across India.
