Chirag: Hello, my name is Chirag and I reside in Faridabad, I am appearing for my first JET exam which was conducted on February 15, 2020. I appeared for the Producing for Film and Television paper. The questions asked were from the syllabus and as taught in the bachelor’s as well. Section A was simple. Section B was a bit tough I would say. Also answering the 30 mark question was time-consuming as well. The overall level of the entrance exam I feel is difficult.

Raj: Hello, my name is Raj and I have come from Nagpur to give the test in Pune and hope to get admission in FTII. I appeared for the paper in cinematography and I felt that I aced the paper. I am confident and I did not have much trouble in answering the entrance test. I have been preparing for JET for the last three months. Section B took a bit of time to complete but I completed the test on time. Nothing was out of the box or out of the syllabus. I would rate the difficulty level of the exam as moderate.

Shruti: Hello, my name is Shruti and I am from Lucknow and giving the JET paper in Delhi on February 16 and I appeared for the Editing exam. I felt the paper on editing was focused on the grammer part which I felt was simple. Section B took a bit of time but I managed to finish the paper on time. Section A which was MCQs was simple to answer. I will say that the overall difficulty of the paper was okay, I did not find the paper that much difficult.

Seher: Hello my name is Seher and I appeared for the Direction and Screenplay writing exam which was conducted on February 16 in the morning session. I felt the paper was moderate. Wouldn’t say it’s too simple or difficult. Section A of the paper was simple to answer which was based on general awareness and current affairs. But I would say that finishing Section B on time was a challenge, especially writing for the 30 mark question. Since I have done my Bachelor’s in Mass Media I could understand the exam well enough. I will say the overall difficulty level of the entrance exam is moderate.

Parul: Hello, my name is Parul and I appeared for the exam in Animation Cinema. I gave the paper in Pune on February 15. The paper was okay. It was a bit tough, especially Section B. The long descriptive questions was a bit tough to answer, plus writing according to the marks is time-consuming. But I managed to complete the paper on time and I am happy with what I wrote in the exam.
