AIAPGET Siddha

NTA conducts it. The agency describes itself as an autonomous, self-sustained testing organisation running entrance examinations for admission and fellowship in higher educational institutions. The test is computer based, so practise on screen rather than only on paper, and use NTA's test practice material to get used to the interface before exam day.

The official notices for the 2026 cycle run in this order: inviting online applications, correction in application particulars, advance intimation of examination city, release of admit cards, display of provisional answer keys with question papers and recorded responses for challenges, display of final answer keys, and declaration of results as NTA Scores. Track each stage on the NTA site.

The NTA homepage does not state the question count, duration, marking scheme or subject-wise weight for AIAPGET. Those details sit in the information bulletin and admit card instructions, so read the current bulletin for your cycle instead of relying on figures quoted by coaching sources or older batches.

Yes. NTA published provisional answer keys along with question papers showing recorded responses specifically for inviting challenges, and later displayed final answer keys. The challenge window is short and usually fee-based per question, so note down disputed question numbers immediately after the exam while your reasoning is still fresh.

NTA has shown it re-conducts the examination for affected candidates rather than compensating them. For AIAPGET 2026, admit cards were released for re-examination of 49 affected candidates at Jaipur. If a disruption occurs, follow centre staff instructions, get the incident recorded, and watch the NTA site for a re-examination notice.

Yes. NTA issued a notice extending the internship completion cut-off date for eligibility to appear in AIAPGET 2026, in English and Hindi. The revised cut-off date itself is not given in that notice text, so open the actual notice and confirm the date against your own internship completion certificate before applying.

Difficulty is set by the depth expected at postgraduate entry, but most losses come from recall gaps in classical Siddha texts and careless reading of negatively worded stems. Build a revision cycle that forces retrieval rather than re-reading, and log every wrong answer with the reason so repeated error patterns become visible.

Start with the foundational subjects and pharmacology, then move to clinical papers, because clinical questions assume the basic science vocabulary. Keep one running notebook of formulas, drug details and classical references, and revise that notebook weekly. Finish with full-length timed simulations so pacing is settled well before the exam.

NTA issues an advance intimation of the examination city before the admit card, so plan travel as soon as the city appears. On the admit card, verify name, photograph, registration number, centre address and reporting time. Carry the identification document the instructions require, and re-download the admit card if any correction notice is issued.

NTA declares results as NTA Scores. Keep your scorecard safe and download it from the official site; NTA has a separate procedure for issuing duplicate score cards if you lose it. Admission to postgraduate Siddha seats is handled subsequently by the counselling authority, not by NTA, so watch for separate counselling notices.
