The difference in Symbiosis entrance exams

Symbiosis University offers multiple entrance exams that open the gateway to even more knowledge paths. SET as they are known, have four major categories which provide access to Symbiosis undergraduate courses. These exams or tests have been categorised according to the field that they generally represent.

 

SET or Symbiosis Entrance Test has 4 major divisions; SET (General), SET Law (SLAT), SET Engineering (SIT EEE) and NON-SET. The last one as you might have guessed is categorised to list out institutes and courses that don't require the entrance examination.

 

SET General is the gateway for non-technical fields of education. There are 4 sections to prepare for under SET General, General English (20 marks), Quantitative Aptitude (20 marks), General Awareness (20 marks) and Analytical & Logical Reasoning (15 marks) for a total of 75 marks. There's an additional Written Ability Test (WAT) that you must prepare for.

 

SET Law or SLAT entrance exam is for acquiring admission in any of Symbiosis Law Schools. The exam consists of 5 topics, Logical Reasoning, Legal Reasoning, Analytical Reasoning, Reading Comprehension and General Knowledge, each worth 15 marks. You will also have to prepare for the Written Ability Test or WAT.

 

SET Engineering or SIT EEE will be for 140 marks with three subjects that you will have to prepare for; Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Physics and Chemistry will have 17 questions each while Mathematics has a total of 36 questions.

 

NON-SET category is for the institutes and the education fields like B Sc Nursing, Bachelor of Arts (Visual Arts and Photography) and Bachelor of Design (B.Des.). These courses and institutes provide direct admission to students with eligible education level and competitive marks obtained in them.

 

All of the exams will be timed for 105 minutes with no negative marking. The most important thing to remember is that the final date for registration is the 4th of July 2021. You should mark that date on your calendars.

 

All of the exams are conducted by Symbiosis International (Deemed University), an accredited and recognized institute by the University Grants Commission, India. Students appearing and clearing the entrance exams will be eligible for courses and institutes that fall under the SIU thus setting the tone for their future.

 

SET exams are generally for technical and commercial fields. There will be no design entrance exam that would encourage passionate art students to find a career in that field. For the rest, the exam is as necessary as the admission opportunity in Symbiosis. So, prepare well and good luck!
