CEETA college predictor
We cannot estimate admission chances from a CEETA result yet, because we do not hold enough data for it. Find Colleges can still match you to colleges using your marks, course and budget.
CEETA previous year question papers
We are adding previous year papers for CEETA. Until then, the exam body's official site is the best source for authentic papers.
| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Mode | Offline (-based) |
| Duration | 2 hours |
| Total questions | 115 questions (Part I: 20, Part II: 20, Part III: 60 -- but each part's marking table lists 20 questions with 4 alternative answers each toward a maximum of 100 marks per part in a separate table, which appears inconsistent with the 115-question overview figure; both are reported as given on the source). |
| Total marks | 100 marks |
| CONFLICTING INFORMATION ON SOURCE: the Highlights table states multiple shading is treated as a wrong answer with 1/3 mark deducted (for all three parts), while the separate detailed ' and Distribution of Questions' table states 1 mark for a correct answer and 1/4 mark deducted for each incorrect response (for Part I, II and III alike); Reporting both figures as they appear on the source; Marks are not deducted for unanswered questions in either version | |
| Sections | 3 parts -- Part I: Engineering Mathematics (common for all candidates, compulsory), Part II: Basic Engineering and Sciences (common for all candidates, compulsory), Part III: Branch-specific/Subject-specific (candidates answer only the section they registered for; answering a different section's questions results in those marks not being evaluated). |
CEETA mock tests
We are adding practice tests for CEETA. Meanwhile, look for an official practice portal on the exam's website.
CEETA books
Recommended books for CEETA are being added. Ask Mimi or a counsellor for a suggested reading list.
