As per our current arrangements, the schedule of Entry Test Examinations for each subject combination is given as under:

• 03-June-2024 All three sessions of Pre-Engineering subject combination.
• 04-June-2024 All three sessions of Computer Science subject combinations.
• 05-June-2024 Two morning sessions of Computer Science and one evening sessions of Pre-Engineering subject combinations.
• 06-June-2024 All three sessions of Pre-Engineering subject combinations.
• 07-June-2024 One morning sessions of Pre-Medical subject combinations.

The Entry Test will be of four combinations:

1. English, Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry
2. English, Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science
3. English, Physics, Mathematics, Statistics
4. English, Physics, Biology, Chemistry

Information about each subject being examined in the Entry Test is given as under:

1. English: 10 questions. It will be comprehension type. A paragraph would be given and candidates would be required to answer multiple choice questions related to the paragraph.
2. Physics: 30 questions. All questions would be on topics covered in Intermediate / "A" Level/ DAE. Questions would require the candidate to solve problems by using the skills and concepts learnt during the intermediate level studies. For example, candidates would certainly be asked questions on Mechanics, Electricity & Magnetism, Work and Energy, etc.
3. Mathematics: 30 questions. All questions would be on topics covered in Intermediate / "A" Level/ DAE. Questions would require the candidate to solve problems by using the skills and concepts learnt during the intermediate level studies. For example, candidates would certainly be asked questions requiring knowledge of Differentiation, Integration, Linear Algebra, Trigonometry, etc.
4. Chemistry/ Computer Science/ Statistics: 30 questions. All questions would be on topics covered in Intermediate/ "A" Level/ DAE. Questions would require the candidate to solve problems by using the skills and concepts learnt during the intermediate level studies.
5. Biology (in lieu of Mathematics for Pre-medical candidates): 30 questions. All questions would be on topics covered in Intermediate / "A" Level/ DAE. Questions would require the candidate to solve problems by using the skills and concepts learnt during the intermediate level studies.

Marking of Entry Test Answer Sheet:

• Correct Answer: 4 marks
• Wrong Answer: -1 mark
• No answer: 0 marks.

This means that if a candidate has 40 correct answers, 40 wrong answers and 20 blanks (no answers), he/she would earn the following marks: 40 x 4 + 40 x (-1) + 20 x (0) = 160 – 40 + 0= 120 marks out of maximum 400.
