    The Engineering Knowledge Test (EKT) is not required for all candidates taking the AFCAT. Applicants who are seeking in technical positions must take the Engineering Knowledge Test (EKT). In order to advance to the next round of the selection process, these aspirants must meet the EKT Cut Off scores.50 correct questions will fetch you 150 marks which is more than enough to crack afcat exam. Candidates who are applying for technical exams have to face EKT exam along with the afcat exam. If you fail in EKT exam though you have cleared the afcat exam,  you won't be eligible for technical branch in AFSB interview.
