All India Engineering/Architecture Entrance Entrance Examinations (AIEEE) is an entrance examination for admission in engineering/architecture bachelor courses throughout most of the engineering/architecture institutes across the country. Admission in all the National Institute of Technology (NITs) as well as most of the state level institutes and private institutes happens through AIEEE. Therefore AIEEE is the most popular engineering Entrance examination for BE/BTech aspiring students across the country. Last time nearly 9 lakh students appeared for AIEEE.

AIEEE is considered to be highly competitive exam for those aspiring to get admission in NITs or other top colleges. Therefore students start preparing for it much before the actual entrance examination. AIEEE is conducted by Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) therefore the syllabus of AIEEE is from CBSE class 11th and 12th syllabus.

Application form
Application forms for AIEEE 2010 are expected to be available in first week of December till first week of January in designated branches of Syndicate bank, CBSE Regional Offices and certain institutions.

Those who want to appear for BE/BTech entrance should compulsory have Physics and Mathematics in class 12th and atleast one of the subjects among Chemistry, Biotechnology, Computer Science or Biology. Those appearing for architecture courses should have Mathematics in class 12th with atleast 50% marks aggregate. Besides a candidate’s date of birth should be on or after 1st October, 1985.

Courses offered
B.E./B.Tech
B.Arch/B.Planning

Pattern of examination
BE/BTech : Entrance examination is of 3 hours having objective questions from Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics with equal weightage from each subject. Each question will have four options. There is a negative marking of 1/4th marks also for incorrect answers.

B.Arch/B.Planning : Entrance examination will be of 3 hours having three parts: Mathematics, Aptitude test and Drawing test. While Mathematics and Aptitude test will have objective questions, drawing test will have questions to check the drawing aptitude of a student.
