The test will be conducted in 135 centres for the Agriculture and Pharmacy(AP) stream and 166 centres for Engineering, whereas in Hyderabad 63 centres for AP stream and 82 centres for the Engineering stream have been set up.
Explaining about the server issues that were reported last year, a senior officer said, “During the exam, if a candidate faces any hardware or software problems with the computer system provided, they should immediately inform the same to the invigilator. In case the problem is not rectified within a reasonable time, the candidate will be provided with another computer system. The time lost for changing the system (if any) will be compensated.”
