Plan the prep and the money for this exam
Weeks available is prefilled from the catalog's next exam date (2027-01-24): 11 weeks from today. Everything else is yours to type.
Prefilled from what is on this device; a currency or catalog figure may show in the page address, your own entries never do. Change anything before you calculate; nothing you type is saved or sent.

- Class 11–12 students ready to align school study with entrance prep

Common mistakes
- Registering late and missing the application window — check the key dates above first
- Preparing from random material instead of the official syllabus and sample papers
- Applying without reading the eligibility fine print (subjects, attempts, category rules)
- Keeping no backup — pair this with at least one more exam from the same stream
Students also consider
Same stream, different route — a strong plan usually pairs two or three of these.
