    How to prepare for SNUCEE? and where to refer for aptitude questions?. How to prepare for maths Qs. Is the exam level is of VITEEE or JEE?. If we prepare for VIT, can we able to crack the exam?? Dear seniors who cracked or wrote SNUCEE, please help your juniors by giving some tips.

    Hi Monish,
    SNUCEE mainly tests aptitude, logical reasoning, and basic Class 11–12 maths. Prepare using aptitude books (RS Aggarwal), NCERT Maths, and practice mock questions similar to the VITEEE level. The exam is easier than JEE Main, so VITEEE preparation is usually enough to crack it.
