We
continue to guide you on the various colleges that admit students on the basis of
their performance in the EAMCET. One of the most common queries that students
have is the likely cutoff for selection to various colleges. Which are the
different colleges that I may get selected to? What is the minimum score needed
for selection to a highly reputed branch at a top college? These questions
trouble every single student (and their parents). Accordingly, we bring to you
this series of articles on colleges that select students on the basis of their
performance in the Andhra Pradesh EAMCET (Engineering and Medical Common
Entrance Test). In these articles, we take a look at the opening and closing
ranks for admissions to these colleges in 2013-14. These articles would give
you a brief idea of the expected opening and closing ranks in 2015-16.
The
EAMCET is conducted for entry to various professional degree courses in the
state of Andhra Pradesh. Various universities of Andhra Pradesh give admission
to students in courses related to medical, engineering and agriculture on the
basis of their performance in this exam. The Andhra Pradesh State Council of
Higher Education (APSCHE) organizes the EAMCET in affiliation with Jawaharlal
Nehru Technological University (JNTU). This year, the exam is scheduled on the
8th of May.
Engineering
aspirants taking the EAMCET need to answer a total of 160 questions on Physics,
Chemistry and Mathematics. The test involves no negative marking. The question
paper is available in English and Urdu. However, only candidates from the
Hyderabad centre can avail the question paper in Urdu.
This particular article covers AU
