AIEEE - All India Engineering Entrance Exam

AIEEE  2012 All India Engineering Entrance Examination is one of the most sort after  Engineering Entrance Exams held in India. It is conducted for admission to Engineering, Architecture, Planning and Pharmacy degree courses in various engineering colleges and institutes spread all over India.

AIEEE is conducted by Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), and Department of Secondary & Higher Education, Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) in compliance with the directives of the Government of India (GOI). A centralized counseling system is provided for filling up the available seats all over India.

AIEEE Eligibility

The minimum academic qualification for admission through AIEEE Entrance Exam is a pass in the final examination of 10+2 (Class XII) or its equivalent.

Those appearing in 10+2 (Class XII) final or equivalent examination may also appear in AIEEE.

For B.E. and B.Tech courses through AIEEE one needs to have physics and Mathematics and any one of Chemistry, Biotechnology, Computer Science and Biology.

For B.Arch. or B. Planning one needs to have mathematics as compulsory subject with at least 50 % marks in aggregate at 10+2 level.
