Hyderabad: The Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University (JNTU) Hyderabad has decided to remove the English-only question paper for the Telangana State Engineering, Agriculture, and Medical Common Entrance Test (TS EAMCET) 2023.
The questions for the exam which is scheduled to be held from May 7 to 11 will be either in English-Telugu or English-Urdu versions. Earlier it used to be in exclusive English too.
As TS EAMCET is conducted in various sessions, there is a possibility that question papers can be of various difficulty levels. In order to ensure that no student should be at disadvantage, the scores of the students are normalized.
While normalizing the scores, marks scored by candidates are checked session-wise and the marks of candidates are either slightly reduced or increased based on the difficulty level of the question paper.
