can anyone mail me EKT sample paper any for computer science

[yatendra]

i am going to give EKT exam in oct.so can you just mail me the sample papers and books which i can prefer.please help me out.

[punshi]

i m pursuing my degree in computer science engineering(4th year) can i give the exam

[Job-finder]

There selection criteria is bit different here. There are two courses provided in this. The first one is Electronics engineering and the other is Mechanical engineering. You must be of 18 years minimum. Mostly upto 25 years of unmarried candidates are expected. There must aggregate 55% of marks i the Engineering degree. You must be Bsc (PCM) and AMIE.

[nor.dhinesh16]

send me computer engg paper questions plsssss

[Masters]

I found some sample paper and hope that might help you out for studies. There are many sites which offers you the same support. It is also better recommended that you must have good study material for the same. That will help you to prepare the same in a much better way. Download the same from the below post and check it.

[jeevitha123]

its really very helpfull .......i came to know about AIF exam yesterday..can i prepare for exam which is on 25th sep 2010...im from computer science dept 2010 passed out..working in an company

[Educated]

It is completely dependent on how good learner you are. If you are having nice learning ability then you can get yourself for exam. If you are having enough study material and ability to complete the same the you can give the exam. But one more important thing "Did you filled the form for same?" If i am not wrong then forms are already submitted for the exam. So if you did filled the form then you won't be allow to sit for exam.
