First NIMCET was conducted in 2005 and since from than, it is being held every year.

There may be many among you, who may want to appear in NIMCET again in the future and therefore would like to know what would be these important dates for NIMCET-2012/2013. Therefore I am making the following forecasts, based on the exam dates of NIMCET-2007 to NIMCET 2010: NIMCET-2012/NIMCET-2013 important dates:NIMCET notification comes out in the last week of January to 2nd/3rd week of February. So for NIMCET-2012/NIMCET-2013 notifications check the following NIT websites from the the last week of January: www.nitagartala.in| www.mnnit.ac.in| www.manit.ac.in| www.nitc.ac.in| www.nitdgp.ac.in| www.nitkkr.ac.in| www.nitjsr.ac.in| www.nitrr.ac.in| www.nitk.ac.in| www.nitt.edu| www.nitw.ac.in. Each year one of the NITs coordinates the NIMCET exam on behalf of all NITs (NIMCET 2010 was coordinated by NIT Allahabad while NIMCET 2011 is being coordinated by NIT, Bhopal).
