IIITH UGEE News & Notifications

For the linguistics portion, the depth you go depends on the exam's design. Since most competitive entrance tests (like CUET, BBA/BCom entrances, or even nursing/B.Ed related papers) treat linguistics as a language proficiency + applied grammar section, here's a structured way to decide:

 How Deep to

No, it's basically not possible.

The 5-year dual degree through UGEE (like at IIIT Hyderabad) has a completely separate admission process. If you join through JEE Main (B.Tech), you can't later switch into the UGEE dual-degree program.

No, despite being a "Research Aptitude" test, the computer-based format only supports objective types (MCQs) and numerical entries. There are no descriptive based questions in the IIITH UGEE exam.

The SUPR section is comparable to JEE Main, but REAP section is considered challenging as it requires creative thinking and "out-of-box" problem solving. It can be compared to the Olympiad level questions.

No, physical or on-screen calculators are strictly prohibited in both sections. 

Yes, in REAP section there can be questions on linguistics puzzles testing pattern recognition in unfamiliar languages. These questions do not require prior knowledge of the language, only logical deduction skills.

Yes, but it is lower than Physics and Mathematics. In SUPR section, the distribution is roughly 40% Mathematics, 35% Physics, and 25% Chemistry/Reasoning.

The total marks of the IIITH UGEE is usually out of 150 marks (50 from SUPR and 100 from REAP). Candidate's performance in REAP is only evaluated if they clear qualifying cutoff in SUPR section.

The IIITH UGEE question paper consists of 100 questions in total out of which 50 are from SUPR and 50 in REAP.

The IIITH UGEE questions are in MCQ format, the REAP section often includes Fill-in-the-Blank or numerical-entry questions. In recent years, approximately 7-9 questions out of 50 in REAP have been non-MCQ.
