Fast is to far, choose a uni near to you, have peace of mind. I am from SZABIST, be good at what you want to do, and you will get a job anywhere.

Looks like we are gonna face some tough competition for admission in FAST this year
Oh don't you worry. You're getting in even if you get a 50 percent in your admission test. Surviving the first semester that's the tough part.

I didn't mean surviving like that, I just meant that a lot of people get into fast but then a lot of them flunk a few courses right in the first semester.
You need to have 50 percent in your intermediate or equivalence.

Right. There isn't a particular value for that. Its set according to the overall performance of the people applying that year. I guess you will get in for sure if you score more than 50 percent on the admission test.

Just get about 60 in the test and you're good to go. Getting into FAST is easy. 60 is a safe limit. Chances in the 50-59 ranges are good as well but 60 is a good number and easy to get.

Yeah. BTW I mean 60 after all the negative marking. The number is this low because everybody takes about a 4-5 mark hit from negative marking. But yeah, FAST is easy to get in, but still don't underestimate. :) Paper is a bit easy, but it's the time you have to worry about. The time pressurizes you. And once the time is up for a subject, you can NOT go back.

Okay so basically from where to prepare it?? Don't ask to goto coaching (sm1).. However Maths is good enough.. Can solve differentials under 1-2 min

You don't really need academies/coaching for FAST. Also, the questions aren't that long either. They won't ask you to solve whole questions, just basic stuff.

lol, the aptitude thing was weird. The reason for the 'number' being 60 is because of the aptitude probably. You can't really tell the right answer, they were just weird shapes as much as I remember. Bunch of boxes and squiggly lines and a riddle or two. :p

I didn't (or probably couldn't) prepare for this secion, that's why it's called an 'aptitude' :p

Basic maths isn't that bad. It's really 'basic'. The problem with it (at least in my case) was that it was the first subject on the test and I was still a bit confused about their timing rules and stuff, and the timer suddenly started why I was trying to think. So yeah, I got a bit confused. But the questions were definitely easy.
