The focus of this blog post is to help you prepare for the NTPC exam by telling you what the NTPC test pattern is and by giving you the sources to download NTPC model/sample/past years papers. Further, it would also give you the list of available books for preparation of NTPC exam.
At first let us begin this by knowing NTPC written test pattern.
Pattern of NTPC written test: NTPC written test consists of two papers: Aptitude & Technical. While the questions of Aptitude test is common, questions of the Technical test would depend on which among the six disciplines (Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, Control & Instrumentation, Human Resources & Finance) you belong to.
There are 55 questions in Technical test & 35 in Aptitude – so a total of 90 multiple-choice questions, which needs to be answered in 2 hours. Thus you have 1 min. 20 seconds aprox. to answer each question – the questions as such are not difficult and therefore your main focus would be to answer the questions correctly. Notes of caution: There is negative marking: 1/4th mark will be deducted for each wrong answer. So if you make a guess, make it wisely!
For Aptitude test the questions asked are of type: Synonyms, Antonyms, Comprehension passages, Word analogies, Fill in the sentences with the most suitable word, Aptitude problem solving skills (train probs, loss profit sums, ratios, etc.).

COMEDK UGET 2010: Notification, Eligibility & Forms
|
|
March 09, 2010
|
|
|
|
 COMEDK UGET-2010 exam notification just came out yesterday and this blog post is being made as COMEDK UGET is a very important entrance exam (which enables you to get admissions in close to 180 Medical, Engineering and Dental institutes in Karnataka).
What is COMEDK UGET? COMEDK (Consortium of Medical Engineering and Dental Colleges of Karnataka) is a forum of unaided private Medical, Dental, Engineering & Architecture institutes in Karnataka, which organizes entrance exams for these institutes every year for its undergraduate programs (called UGET: Under-Graduate Entrance Test) and postgraduate programs (called PGET: Post-Graduate Entrance Test).
While UGET is held in the month of May, PGET is held in the month of January end/ February beginning. At the last count (in 2009), 177 COMEDK institutes (15 Medical, 28 Dental, 125 Engineering, 9 Architecture) participated in UGET-2009 while 29 COMEDK institutes (9 Medical, 20 Dental) participated in PGET-2009.
In size and scale, COMEDK UGET is just next to another entrance exam in Karnataka called CET (Common Entrance Test), Karnataka – where close to 300 institutes participates (in CET-2009: 33 Medical, 39 Dental, 154 Engineering, 57 Ayurvedic, 10 Homeopathy, 4 Unani and, 4 Naturopathy/Yoga participated).
The difference is while COMEDK UGET is purely for unaided private institutes, CET, Karnataka is mainly for Govt-run institutes, where private (aided/unaided) institutes also participates. But if you have not studied in Karnataka or if either of your parent's mother tongue is not Kannada, you can not appear in CET, Karnataka.
On the other hand admission through COMEDK UGET is open to all the students across the country. SC/ST/OBC candidates of Karnataka however get relaxations in minimum qualifying %ages as the UGET eligibilities below would show.
COMEDK UGET Eligibilities: UGET Eligibilities for Engineering (BE): Minimum 45% aggregate in PCM (Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics) in Class-XII exam or equivalent (like 2nd PUC) with English as language of study is compulsory.
For SC, ST and OBC candidates of Karnataka minimum aggregate in PCM is relaxed to 40%. Similarly in the Common Entrance Test, you must secured minimum 40% marks in PCB
UGET Eligibilities for Medical (MBBS) & Dental (BDS): Minimum 50% aggregate in PCB (Physics, Chemistry and Biology) in Class-XII exam or equivalent (like 2nd PUC) with English as language of study is compulsory. Also in the Common Entrance Test, you must secured minimum 50% marks in PCB.
For SC, ST and OBC candidates of Karnataka minimum aggregate in PCM is relaxed to 40%.
UGET Eligibilities for Architecture (B. Arch): Minimum 50% marks in aggregate (45% marks for SC/ST/OBC Candidates of Karnataka) in Class-XII exam or equivalent (like 2nd PUC) with Maths as one of the subject or a 10+3 Diploma recognized by Central / State Government. In addition to above you need to score minimum 80 out of 200 in NATA (National Aptitude Test in Architecture) conducted by Council of Architecture.
UGET Age Eligibilities: Minimum 17 years as on 31/12/2010.
COMEDK UGET Test Pattern: COMEDK UGET exam pattern consist of three tests: 1.0 Physics and Chemistry paper ( Compulsory for both Medical & Engineering): It has 120 questions (60 questions each in Physics and Chemistry) of 120 marks to be answered in 120 minutes.
2.0 Biology paper (for Medical): It has 60 questions of 60 marks to be answered in 60 minutes. 3.0 Maths paper (for Engineering): It has 60 questions of 60 marks to be answered in 60 minutes. Questions are of objective type, to be answered in OMR sheet. And there is no negative marking.
COMEDK UGET Test centres: COMEDK UGET is held in the state of Karnataka only in following 12 COMDEK test centres (as per UGET-2009): Bangalore,Davangere, Mysore, Belgaum, Dharwad, Shimoga, Bellary, Gulbarga, Tumkur, Bijapur, Mangalore, Udupi.
COMEDK UGET Course Fee: Each COMEDK member institution specifies its own annual course-fee structure. However, the maximum annual fee any institute can charge is Rs.3.25 lakhs for Medical, Rs. 2.30 Lakhs for Dental and Rs.1.25 lakhs for Engineering courses.
How to apply for COMEDK UGET: If you have the above COMDEK UGET eligibilities, naturally you would like to know how to apply for COMDEK UGET entrance exam. You can apply to COMDEK UGET only online. But before you apply online for COMDEK UGET, you must procure the DD (Demand Draft) for the COMDEK UGET application fee as below: 1.0 If you wish to appear in either of PCM (for BE) or PCB (for MBBS): Rs. 700/= 2.0 If you wish to appear in PCMB (i.e. for both BE & MBBS): Rs. 900/= The above COMDEK UGET application fee should be paid in the form of a DD drawn in favour of "COMEDK", payable at “Bangalore”.
After filling the COMEDK UGET online form, you need to take its print-out and send with enclosures (DD, Photograph, Date of Birth Certificate/Identity Proof) to the following address so as to reach within last date of completed form receipt: The Executive Secretary - COMEDK, # 37, First Floor, Ramanashree Chambers, Lady Curzon Road, Bangalore 560001, Karnataka.
Hope with above information, you would be able to plan and prepare for your COMEDK UGET-2010 exam. I would be on the lookout for COMEDK UGET study materials: sample papers & books and as and when I spot them, I would post the same here. So keep visiting this blog. Labels: COMDEK UGET Exam |
