Re: TANCET MCA Blueprint

The MCA (Master in Computer Application) Tamil Nadu Common Entrance Test – TANCET is a multiple-choice based entrance exam, with negative marking for wrong answers.

The two hours paper comprises of 100 questions of one mark each comprising of the following given topics:-

• Quantitative Ability
• Analytical ability
• Logical Reasoning
• Computer Awareness

Each question shall carry 1marks for correct answer.
For every incorrect answer one-fourth mark shall be deducted.
If a question has not been attempted no credit will be given.


TANCET Exam Syllabus
