https://www.shiksha.com/university/vit-university-vellore-29714/admission#admission
Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT) University conducts Vellore Institute of Technology Engineering Entrance Exam (VITEEE) to offer admissions to aspirants in B.Tech programmes available at its Vellore and Chennai campuses.
VITEEE is a computer based test (CBT) and its language of instruction is English only. The duration of this entrance exam is two and a half hours.
Apart from exam centres in India, VITEEE is also held at two international test centres which are Dubai and Kuwait.

The crux of all the major engineering entrance exam that a student prepared or is essentially the same. They all focus on concepts of physics, chemistry and maths. The difference is only in the level of difficulty.
JEE is definitely the highest and the toughest when it comes to the level of difficulty and it tests you on applying multiple concepts in a single question. In addition to that, it also tests your endurance as an engineering aspirant. If one prepared for an exam like JEE, one can be rest assured that all the parameters of your preparation are being covered as JEE is the most exhaustive among the entrance tests.
So, one does not need to prepare separately for VITEEE as your fundamental preparation is already done. What one can do additionally is:
1. Go through past year papers of VITEEE to see the level of difficulty.
2. Take times mock sets for VITEEE. This is important because, in easier entrance exams, time management becomes a matter of paramount importance as the cut-off is higher. So, you need to answer more questions with higher accuracy.
Apart from this, no additional or separate preparation is needed.

Syllabus of engineering in India is comparable to the best universities of the world. Pedagogy at top international universities and conventional Indian engineering colleges differs quite a lot. Conventional engineering colleges' teachers do not have the flexibility to modify syllabus and use modern teaching technologies. They focus on covering syllabus and more on the remembrance of facts and examinations are subjective. Whereas teaching at international universities is focused on developing a sound theoretical base and its application using logical and creative thinking by students. Students are encouraged to be innovative. International university facility has a lot of freedom in setting course curriculum and grading. International universities have the best of facilities with a sharper student population. They thrive on intellectual discussions among students and students and teacher. Overall development and learning opportunities are far more in comparison to conventional engineering college.

No, you don't need to prepare for MUOET separately if you are preparing for JEE exam. MUOET paper is quite easy as compared to JEE paper. You just have to solve mock papers of MUOET to get an idea of paper pattern and quality as well as the quantity of questions asked.
Syllabus of both the exams is almost similar. Physics, chemistry and mathematics are common in both the exams. But MUOET asks few questions of English and aptitude.
Again, the level of aptitude and English is not too high, you can easily prepare for it in one or two months before the examination. You can take a lot of mock papers to boost your confidence.
NCERT is enough for chemistry and for physics part, you may prefer HC Verma. You may refer RD Sharma MCQ for maths.
MUOET is not that hard nut to crack, so even if you have prepared/finished 50% syllabus of JEE then you can easily crack it. So don't worry about MUOET and prepare for JEE with full confidence and determination.
Hope it helped.
