Overview

Upon qualifying this preliminary test the candidates are eligible for becoming our students. For information on NTS and admission application forms one can contact the various NTS offices at under mentioned addresses.

What is NTS?
NTS stands for National Testing Service. Within the essential premise of raising the quality of education, an important objective of NTS is to establish a credible, technically appropriate and accurate system of performance evaluation for students of various educational institutions at various levels. It thus assists in carrying out an estimated ranking of students for admissions in various educational institutions.

The National Aptitude Test program (NAT) aims to assess the verbal, quantitative and analytical abilities that have been attained over a period of time and that are not necessarily related to any specific field of study.

The Verbal section measures the ability: to analyze and evaluate written material and synthesize information obtained from it; to analyze relationships among component parts of sentences and recognize relationships between words and concepts. There is a balance of different subject matters: humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences.

The Quantitative section measures your basic mathematical skills, understanding of elementary mathematical concepts, and the ability to reason quantitatively and solve problems in a quantitative setting. There is a balance of questions requiring basic knowledge of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data analysis. These are essential content areas usually studied at the high school level.

The Analytical Reasoning tests your critical thinking and analytical writing skills. It assesses your ability to articulate and support complex ideas, analyze an argument, and sustain a focused and coherent discussion. It does not assess any specific content knowledge.
