SNAP

Registration process of SNAP 2026 will be online. Application form will be available at SNAP TEST website from first week of August 2026 onwards.

They will also have to select SIU colleges and courses for admission in the form. 

Yes, you can appear for SNAP 2026. There is no cap on number of attempts in SNAP. One can appear for the exam, any number of times until they get their desired score. However, it is very important to prepare well for SNAP. Only then one can improve score in the subsequent attempt. One should note down their shortcomings in the first attempt and work on them so that they can make up in the second attempt. 

SNAP question paper has 60 questions in all the sessions, English has 15 questions, QA, DI-DS has 20 questions and A-LR has 25 question. Candidates are not supposed to attempt all the questions. But they must attempt about 2/3rd of the total questions with maximum accuracy to be able to get a good score. SNAP sectional cut offs are important for selection to SIU, so don't ignore one section for another. 

There is no negative marking for skipping questions in SNAP. If a candidate skips a question, he will marked 0 on that.

No. Candidates cannot use the same SNAP admit card for all sessions. For every SNAP session, a separate admit card is issued having date, time, slot and test centre mentioned on it. Any candidate who has applied for more than one SNAP session will be issued admit cards for those sessions. They are supposed to carry the session specific SNAP admit card to the exam centre on the exam day.

Candidates should download SNAP admit card before exam day as the window to download it is closed after that. Moreover, only the admit card stamped and signed by invigilator is considered valid post the exam day, so even if it is available for download after exam, it will not be considered valid.
