What is ETEA

The Education Testing and Evaluation Agency (ETEA) is an organization engaged in the education sector provided by the Government of Kyber Pakhtunkhwa. This educational entity was established in November 1988. Supervised by a Board of Governors, ETEA aims to carry out tests in the medical and engineering fields.

Initially, ETEA was established to carry out administration of the Entrance Test for admission to educational institutions in the field of Medical and Engineering at the provincial level in lieu of external testing agencies. However, the scope of activities and objectives of ETEA has been expanded beyond mere Entrance Tests. In short, ETEA has begun to reform the testing and examination system that uses its electronic facilities to bring efficiency, objectivity and transparency to each test carried out.

How to Apply ETEA Test

There are two paths that can be taken by candidates who aspire to apply for admission to register for the ETEA test. These two procedures are distinguished based on the scientific domain to be addressed, whether it’s medical or engineering.

For applicants who wish to continue their education to medical school, students need to fill out an application form available online on the official website of Khyber Medical University (KMU) at www.kmu.edu.pk. Students will be able to receive a scratch card for a medical entrance test of Rs. 1600 from the respective bank after completing the previous procedure.

You can check for announcements about the periodic opening of admissions both in leading newspapers and the official KMU website. Admission is held once a year. The availability dates of the admission and prospectus forms, the dates of submission, interview to the admission test schedule are all listed in detail on the admission announcement board at KMU. You can find the schedule printed on advertisements or uploaded online on the KMU official site. All information regarding the ETEA test for KMU is available on the official KMU website which you can access at any time.

Meanwhile, for candidates who wish to enroll in Engineering programs, students will be recommended to attend admission at the University of Engineering & Technology Peshawar (UET). To get admission at the Bachelor level, participants must attend the ETEA test before registering for admission. If candidates are declared selected for the Merit Register, they are required to attend the admission interview to complete the entire registration process. For candidates at Master degree, they must be declared legally qualified on the ETEA test with a score of at least 50%. If they succeed in getting these results, participants immediately register themselves online for admission. Then, participants will participate in the Pass Departmental Subject selection. Once they are subjected to pass at this stage, the names of the participants will be recorded in the Merit Register and subsequently are welcome to register in the available courses.
