TS ICET, which Kakatiya University conducts on behalf of the Telangana State Council of Higher Education (TSCHE), provides a gateway to some of the state's best universities and institutions that offer postgraduate management and computer application courses. The exam evaluates three main skills: Analytical Ability, Mathematical Ability, and Communication Ability, each contributing to a candidate’s overall performance. The exam is conducted in a Computer-Based Test (CBT) format, for 150 minutes. Candidates will be asked 200 multiple-choice questions, each bearing one mark. Importantly, there is no negative marking for incorrect answers, allowing candidates to attempt all questions without the fear of penalty.
