State entrance tests for three-year engineering diplomas taken straight after Class 10.
Conducted by State technical education boards
This is the only major entrance exam that happens after Class 10 rather than Class 12, so the decision window closes much earlier than families expect.
Open to students from any Class 12 stream.
