Engineering College Admission Test (ECAT) is essential to get admissions in Engineering Colleges and universities in Pakistan .ECAT is the best testing tool for engineering students in Pakistan. Test for undergraduate is mandatory which is held by UET Lahore for all public sector institutions of the Punjab.
All the candidates who are planning to get admission in Engineering colleges are required to pass an Entry Test (ECAT- Engineering College Admission Test). The syllabus of ECAT is comprised of four Subjects i.e., Physics, Chemistry, Math and English of F.Sc, Pre-Engineering or equivalent level. The pattern of test is based on the criteria set by the respective Universities & Colleges.
The sections of Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and English are in a standard ECAT format. However, English contents may vary from university to university. For example the ECAT format for UET Lahore is different than that of NUST ECAT format.

E-CAT SAMPLE PAPERS
E-CAT TEST SCORES AND MERIT
Assessment of the performance of the candidates is not only dependent on the ECAT score rather it is a combination of applicant's previous academic performance and ECAT score. Maximum score of ECAT varies considerably institution to institution, ranging from 100 to 400 points.
Merit ListsA few weeks after ECAT, a combined merit list is displayed for selected candidates. However, some private institutions send acceptance letters to the selected candidates.
Required Score Although every engineering college vary with respects to the score they require, a standard score of 320 (with FSc first year score of at least 480) or greater will be preferably considered. The test is an objective measure and high scores will help an individual with average grades. Average or slightly lower ECAT scores probably do not significantly affect a superior college record.
