I am interested in pursuing PhD biotechnology from VTU. I have a query regarding Technical Aptitude Test. In the notification for registration to Ph. D in engineering / science/ business administration/computer applications and m.sc.(engg.) by research programmes, its given:
Candidates who are qualified in Technical Aptitude Test conducted by VTU after
2008 and rejected after scrutiny need not appear for Technical Aptitude Test.
However they are required to send fresh application for registration with proof for
having appeared and qualified Technical Aptitude Test during past two years.
But in VTU regulations it’s given as: (i) A Candidate shall have obtained minimum of 60% or equivalent Grade marks in either at Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree examinations as considered for the declaration of Class/Grade by the concerned University.
(ii) In addition to the above, the candidate shall have qualified in GATE or equivalent national level test within the immediately preceding 5 years, or in the University level Research Aptitude test, the results of which shall be valid for a period of three years.
As I have qualified GATE in 2007 am I exempted from taking up Technical Aptitude Test-2010? Kindly let me know.
