The TS EAMCET exam will be conducted in computer-based (online mode) for 3 hours. It will have a total of 160 objective-type questions which are divided into three subjects: Mathematics (80 questions), Physics (40 questions), and Chemistry (40 questions).

The TS EAMCET 2025 (Telangana State Engineering, Agriculture & Medical Common Entrance Test) is conducted by JNTU Hyderabad on behalf of TSCHE in April April 29 and 30,2025 for the pharmacy and agriculture courses, and from May 2 to May 5, 2025 for engineering.

  • TS EAMCET 2025 Qualifying Marks: The minimum is 25% (i.e., 40 out of 160 marks), and there is nothing for candidates belonging to reserved categories.
  • Effect of IPE Marks: IPE marks won't be included in TS EAMCET 2025 scores like in previous years, i.e., 100% weightage on EAMCET performance.
  • Difficulty Level & Competition: Mathematics was the most challenging in TS EAMCET 2024, with 60% of students finding it lengthy. Physics was 50% numerical and 50% formula-based, while Chemistry was 65% theory-based, making it relatively simple.

“In TS EAMCET 2024, More than 3.4 lakh students appeared for the exam, with the top score being 158/160 and the top percentile of 99.99%. Top colleges' engineering cut-off ranged between 110-130 marks.”
