MET Exam Pattern 2020 – Significance

1. The exam officials formulates the exam pattern so as to best evaluate the skills they think are essential for the students to succeed in college.
2. As per the MET exam pattern, question type will be objective and the candidate has to attempt 200 questions in 150 minutes. This shows that the candidate must have all the formulas in their fingertips and assured in their understanding of various concepts to do well in the MET 2020 exam.
3. A unique feature of the MET 2020 question paper is it includes a section on English, which will have 30 questions. Now there are not many B.Tech entrance exams that ask questions on the English subject.
4. And among the PCM subjects, Maths carry the maximum weightage as it will contribute 70 questions; Physics and Chemistry each contribute 50 questions. 
5. All the questions carry the same marks or weightage.     
6. On a side note, before applying for MET 2020, don’t forget to check out the prescribed eligibility criteria for the exam.

English	The test of English Language for the entrance examination covers ‘General English’ of the 10 + 2 standard. It is not designed to evaluate students’ knowledge of English literature, but to test their ability to grasp the fundamental concepts in English grammar and usage. Proficiency in English language is tested through objective-type multiple-choice questions on grammar, vocabulary, sentence correction, synonyms, antonyms, homophones, homonyms, one word substitutions, idioms and phrases,phrasal verbs, and usage. Students are not required to learn the glossary of complicated grammatical jargon, but should have the basic knowledge of word usage, matching of subject and verbs, correct usage of tenses, and grammatically correct sentences acceptable in standard written communication. Tense – Use of proper tense and sequence of tense   Modals (have to/had to, must, should, need, ought to and their negative forms)   Subject – verb concord   Pronouns   Sentence structure   Usages in English: Commands and requests, Statements, Questions   Clauses: Noun clauses, Adverb clauses of condition and time, Relative clauses   Determiners/ Use of proper articles   Prepositions   Vocabulary: Synonyms, Antonyms, Spellings, One word substitutions
