The Common Entrance Test (CET) not only holds the key to professional courses but will also cover agriculture and other related subjects. Students who want to pursue courses on agriculture, food science and veterinary science will have to appear for the test, to be held on May 1, 2 and 3 this year.
Courses that'll need CET rank for admission include BSc agriculture, BSc forestry, BSc sericulture, BSc agri-biotechnology, BSc horticulture, Bachelor of home science (BHSc), Bachelor of veterinary science and animal husbandry (BVSAH), Btech food technology, Btech dairy technology, Bachelor of food Science (BFSc), Btech (food science and technology) & BSc agricultural marketing and Btech agriculture engineering.
"In the past, there were separate examinations for these courses that were conducted by respective universities. We decided to include them under CET as eligibility criteria for them are similar to professional courses like medical and engineering. This will ensure that students aren't hassled. They can sit for CET and take up various courses under agricultural universities after counselling," said a Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) official.
CET 2013 medical entrance is subject to the Supreme Court's decision, which is expected on February 28, 2013.
