Examination Centers

Candidates will be asked to fill their choice for the examination center they wish to appear for the CWAT. As far as possible, the examination centers will be allotted to the candidates as per their first / second choice. However, in the event of minimum no of candidates not being available at a particular center, the organizers have a right to allot any other center to the candidate. In such a case, attempt will be made to allot the examination center closer to the candidate’s first / second choice.  However, the test center once allotted will be final and no request for its change will be entertained.

(a) Intelligence and Reasoning Test.
(b) General Awareness Test.
(c) English Language Competency & Comprehension Test.
(d) Education / Aptitude for Teaching Test.

Merit list

Merit lists for the three institutions will be prepared on the basis of the candidates’ performance in the CWAT as given below. In deciding about the inter-se-merit, the tie if any, will be resolved in the following order of priority:-

  (a) Candidates older in age will rank higher

(b) If after applying (a) above, there is yet a tie; then candidates securing higher marks in Language Competency and Comprehension Test Component in the CWAT will rank higher.

(c) If after applying (b) above, the tie persists; then the candidates securing higher marks in the qualifying examination will rank higher.

 Based on the candidates’ performance in CWAT separate merit lists will be drawn for the three institutions. Candidates will be considered for admission only to the institution(s) for which they have filled the prescribed application. Candidates applying for more than one institution will be considered for allotment to the respective institutions as per the priority of choice indicated by them in their application and as per their position in the merit list. For example, if as per his / her performance in CWAT, a common applicant gets the institution of his / her first choice then he / she will not be considered for a seat in the institution of his / her second or third choice. Similarly, if a common applicant gets his / her second choice then he / she will not be considered for a seat in the institution of his / her third choice. But a common candidate who gets his lower priority choice will be considered for a place in the waiting list in the institution of his / her higher priority choice as per his / her CWAT merit. 

 Priority of choice for the three institutions should be indicated carefully in the application form as the choice once indicated would neither be revised nor changed at a later stage.
