English & Timed Mocks
Practise timed passage-comprehension sets (10 questions in about 8–10 minutes) and complete full-length 100-minute mock tests, including UET's official mock test.
Can You Take the ECAT Exam?
Check if you meet the basic eligibility requirements
- •A minimum merit aggregate of 50% is required for UET undergraduate admission.
- •Foreign qualifications, including A-Levels, need an IBCC equivalence certificate; Pre-Medical candidates with additional Mathematics are assessed using first-year biology marks.
- •Bring the admit card and an accepted photo ID: CNIC/NICOP, NADRA juvenile card, Matric/Intermediate certificate with photograph, computerised domicile with photograph, passport, or A-Level Statement of Entry.
