Student Readiness ?
“It was a great experience to give the exam online. I have never given an Online exam before and I could not practice even during the preparation. But as we entered the lab, the staff present gave
us instructions on how to approach the exam and what all needs to be taken into account”

Like most of the others, when I heard about GCET going online, I was a bit skeptical and apprehensive. But the apprehensiveness soon transformed to contentment as i took the test on 1st of July. The whole online system and the functioning of GCET '09 does claims a special mention. The entire system from registering at the test centre till we got the score cards was indeed commendable. The functioning was user-friendly and smooth. The online test system was devised in the most considerate way, with one question appearing on the screen at a time, facility for going back and forth and also an option to mark a particular question for review later, along with question numbers catalogued on a side panel whereby the candidate can jump to any question as required. A meticulously developed and a well maintained system for online aptitude examination. Kudos!
