Designated Test Zones and Center Allocation
To facilitate a smooth testing experience and minimize travel distances for candidates, the exam conveners at Kakatiya University have strategically allocated 12 regional testing sectors across the state:
Hyderabad Zones (Capital City)
Hyderabad North: Centers concentrated around Medchal, Gandimaisamma, Old Alwal, and surrounding residential networks.
Hyderabad East: Covering center placements across Mallapur, Ghatkesar, and adjacent vicinities.
Hyderabad South: Serving students located near L.B. Nagar, Hayathnagar, and Karmanghat.
District & Specialized Rural Hubs
Specialized Hubs: To prevent long-distance travel for rural candidates, eight distinct district headquarters, including Adilabad, Karimnagar, Khammam, and Kodad, have been equipped with the necessary digital infrastructure to host the CBT.
Additional Zones: Dedicated examination centers have also been confirmed in Nalgonda, Mahabubnagar, Warangal, and Nizamabad. Local candidates are advised to plan their commute well in advance.
Exam Pattern Overview
Candidates should tailor their revision strategy according to the official exam format:
Format: Computer-Based Test (CBT) consisting entirely of Objective Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs).
Total Questions: 100 questions.
Marking Scheme: 1 mark is awarded for every correct answer.
Negative Marking: There is no negative marking for incorrect attempts.
Last-Minute Preparation Tip for M.Sc. Chemistry Candidates: Since Part-A carries a substantial weightage of 40 marks for multiple M.Sc. courses (including the BCESFSG&M group and Bio-Technology), ensure rapid revision of core graduation-level concepts like standard equations, periodic properties, and standard reactions.
