Test
Comparison:
When compared to KEAM and JEE, CUSAT is a simple entrance
test to pass. The CUSAT consists of 250 multiple-choice questions that must be
completed in three hours. As a result, completing all 250 questions within the
time limit is challenging. Simply pay to the easy questions first, and if time
remains after you have completed the easy ones, you may devote it to the tough
ones.
