    Dear Sakshi,
    To get admission in BTech in CSE at LPU you should have a minimum of 60% marks in the 12th class. Moreover, you should have either qualified for the LPUNEST exam or you should have a minimum of 85 percentile in the JEE Mains exam.
    I did my MBA from LPU and one of my friend's younger brothers is studying over there in B.Tech CSE.

    You must take and pass the LPUNEST if it is required for entrance to the programme you choose. You can only be admitted to LPU after that. The LPUNEST test has two chances. If for some reason you are unable to pass the exam on your first attempt, you will have a second chance to do so, but only during the admissions process.
    Even though some programmes require the LPUNEST, students can still be admitted directly to those programmes based on their achievement in National Level Exams. In this scenario, students will not be required to take the LPUNEST.
    I would like to recommend that you take the LPUNEST even if it is not required for the p

    Hi,
    Due to the current situation i.e. COVID-19, the eligibility criteria is a bit relaxed and the admissions are being done online. LPU offers more than 250 programmes and the eligibility criteria is different for different courses. If LPUNEST is mandatory for eligibility then you have to qualify it. LPUNEST is also considered for scholarship purposes.
    Thanks
  • Yash, you have not specified the program you want to take admission in. In some programs it is mandatory to clear LPUNEST test for admission and in as some programs it is to be cleared to avail better scholarship benefits. You can give LPUNEST twice.

LPU's Physical Efficiency Test (LPUPET/PET) is in fact not an hour-long session with a fixed time allotment; rather, it is a combination of physical tasks conducted in succession sprinting for 50m, broad jump, overhead medicine ball throw (3 kg for men and 2 kg for women), and finally 1000m of run/walk. The time taken in doing the complete tasks varies with the fitness of the candidate, commonly taking from 20 to 45 minutes for a session. The candidates are allowed a maximum of two attempts.
