•    Selection process
The selection process consists of a All India Examination and a counseling process for the qualified students. This year examination would be conducted in single sittings. The paper consists of equal no of questions from Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. CEE has changed its considerably in last 5 years. Thus, the students should be mentally prepared to get a different pattern.

•    SPEED AND ACCURACY
The questions asked in DCE are comparatively easier than the IIT . In this context speed and accuracy hold the key for success.  For example the tangents at points (t1)  and (t2) to the parabola y2 = 4ax meet at the point (a t1t2,a( t1+t2)) . You could easily calculate these points by solving the equations of the tangents, but it’s nothing wrong if you remember the results .
I guess most of u must be engaged in revising.
Happy Revising
