MANGALORE: The Government will conduct a Common Entrance Test (CET) in 11 subjects for admission to post-graduation courses in universities in the State for the academic year 2007-08, according to sources in Mangalore University.
The subjects to be covered are microbiology, biotechnology, biochemistry, physics, chemistry, commerce, history, political science, economics, social work (for Master of Social Work course) and education (for Master of Education course).
Mysore and Karnatak universities would jointly conduct the CET. Mangalagangotri campus of Mangalore University would be one of the test centres, the sources said. The dates for CET are yet to be announced.
Students who had appeared for the final year degree examinations in the academic year 2006-07 could appear for the CET, they said. While preparing the question papers for each subject, the syllabi of all universities in that particular subject would be taken into consideration, they said.
The Government had fixed minimum qualifying marks for each subject covered by the CET as eligibility for admission to post-graduation courses.
A candidate had to obtain the minimum qualifying marks in a particular subject in the degree course.
If a candidate failed to obtain the minimum qualifying marks in a particular subject and scored top marks in the CET in the same subject, then the candidate would not be eligible to seek admission for post-graduation course in that subject in any university, the sources said.
Hence, only scoring top marks in a particular subject in the CET would not be enough to seek admission to a post-graduation course.
The candidate had to obtain the minimum qualifying marks in a particular subject in the degree course to pursue post-graduation in that particular subject, the sources said.
