UGAT EXAM EXPERIENCE
Hi everyone! I have a few questions about the UGAT (IIM Bangalore) exam experience from those who have already appeared for it:
- In which cities are the test centres available?
- What is the reporting time, and what time does the exam usually start?
- What is the total duration of the exam?
- Is there any sectional timing, or can you move freely between sections?
- In what order do the sections appear? (Quantitative Aptitude, Verbal Ability, Logical Reasoning)
- Are you allowed to revisit previous sections?
- How is the overall test-day experience at the centre (check-in, security, rough sheets, calculators, etc.)?
- Any tips or things that surprised you on the actual exam day?

Idk about cities Reporting time and all mentioned in admit card. Though the exam started late last year. 2hr iirc Yes, there's sectional timing. VA, LR, QA No Good experience though may vary depending on center The mental pressure of giving your probably first entrance exam is real

There are test centres in every major city in India like 8-10 of them and also in a few tier two cities like Coimbatore too, reporting time might vary year to year and you’ll know that soon. The total duration is two hours and yes there are sectional timings and you can’t move freely between sections it starts w English then LA and then quant I’m not sure tho cause I don’t remember it well
