I have 75000 rank in AP EAMCET under SC category. Is it advisable for me to apply for counseling, as I am a non-local?

Yes, you can participate in the VSAT counselling even though if you have passed the JEE/EAMCET exam.

To prepare for the TS EAMCET exam, candidates can refer to the NCERT books, however, they can also take help from supplementary books, but over burdening oneself with a lot of books is not recommended.

If candidates have focused well in their 10 and 10+2 classes, they can easily qualify in the exam. The question paper is similar to popular engineering entrance exams such as JEE Mains, but the difficulty level is of easy to moderate.

At the TS EAMCET exam centre, candidates need to follow the below guidelines - 

• Reach the exam centre atleast 40-60 minutes before the reporting time.
• Carry your government issued IDs.
• Carry a passport size photo,
• Although the exam is in CBT based online mode, carry black and blue ball point pen.
• Avoid wearing flashy things such as jewellery at the exam centre.
• Avoid taking your smartphone, smartwatch to the exam centre.

No, once being alloted the TS EAMCET exam centres, candidates will not be able to change it. The decision is final from the exam body.
