The PESSAT (PES Scholastic Aptitude Test) is a university entrance test held at PES University, Bangalore, using the PESSAT test as the means to admissions into different undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. The test is designed to evaluate candidates on elements of the skills that include the mathematical ability, the capacity to think and the command of the English language. PESSAT is the two-hour-long computer-based multi-choice exam that consists of physics, chemistry, mathematics, English comprehension, verbal ability, and logical reasoning as its components.
The PESSAT results are generally available within 15 days of the completion of the exam. The report, among other things, details the candidate's score on the combined entrance test, the proficiency levels in different sections, percentile rankings, and shortlisting for counselling and admission. High scores in PESSAT will certainly heighten the whats of applicants for the admission into the popular programs like engineering, law, design, management and hospitality programs offered by PES University.
