GUJCET 2018 to be conducted on April 23

Ahmedabad: Admission Committee for Professional Courses (ACPC) for admissions to engineering and pharmacy programmes will conduct Gujarat Common Entrance Test (GujCET) foe year 2018 on April 23.

Since 2017, GujCET has been made compulsory for admissions in engineering, pharmacy and diploma courses in Gujarat.

The Gujarat government had opted out of Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) on the ground that Gujarati-medium students were not able to do well in JEE.

GUJCET 2018 will have four papers for Physics, Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics of 40 marks each in OMR pattern.

GUJCET 2018 will be conducted at district headquarters.

The papers will be based on class XII (science) syllabus and will be conducted in Gujarati, English and Hindi.

Dates for online application are to be announced soon.

The students are likely to get about 20 days’ time after the board exams to prepare for GUJCET 2018.

Last year, 1.32 lakh students had appeared in GUJCET out of which 66,473 had taken the test in A Group and 65,542 in B Group.
