There will be two parts to this exam. First you will need to attempt questions in mathematics and then a general ability test. In the maths section questions in areas like trigonometry, vector algebra, matrices, probability etc will be asked. There will be two sections in the general ability test. The first section will be in English and the other will cover areas like Physics, Chemistry, Geography, History, General Science etc. You will get the syllabus in the notification.
