Symbiosis is a private group of academic institutions that was started way back in 1971 and now has under its banner university, colleges, centres and schools hosting more than 40,000 Indian and international on-campus students. The school (deemed university) provides international standard quality education and hence attracts many students from abroad. However, the students have to undergo various selection tests to get into this coveted institution. Symbiosis entrance test (SET) is one of them. SET is a national level entrance examination conducted for entrance to the 12 colleges of SIU (Symbiosis International University).

SET is actually a test for admission to undergraduate courses of various streams like Law, Engineering, Management, Mass Communication, Computer Studies, Liberal Arts, Economics.

 

Aspiring students willing to study undergraduate courses in any of these streams need to appear for SET. The eligibility criteria is 50% score in aggregate in class 12 or equivalent. Students belonging to reserved categories will get a 5% relaxation and thus they will need to score an aggregate of 45% in class 12 or equivalent.

 

So far as students from outside India are concerned, those who have completed 12th standard or equivalent exam from a foreign board will be required to obtain an equivalent certificate from the Association of Indian Universities (AIU).

 

So far as exam preparation for the SET exam is concerned, the students must be well acquainted with the syllabus. They need to practice enough of mock tests, solve plenty of sample papers and try to solve questions with a time limit set.
