MICAT Pattern

The MICAT exam has a time limit for each segment. A segment must be finished by candidates within the allotted time. MICAT contains three components according to MICA's design. The first portion, a psychometric test, has a 30-minute time limit in which to finish it. Additionally, a 25-minute time limit has been enforced for Section B's descriptive test. Within twenty-five minutes, candidates must respond to all four of the Section-B questions. There are four subsections in the last section, or Section C. You have 80 minutes to finish Part C in its entirety. Candidates were able to move between the subsections while responding to questions in part C.

MICAT Psychometric exam has a total of 150 questions. Candidates may or may not answer all the questions. Psychometric Test is a qualifier exam. Candidates who do not answer all questions in the Psychometric Test may not get the section evaluated. Performance in the Psychometric test is not included while merit preparation for final selection. However, candidates who do not pass the Psychometric test are not considered for evaluation in the subsequent section of the MICAT exam. MICA will evaluate the candidate's readiness for the programme based on his/her responses in the Psychometric Test. Therefore, passing the Psychometric Test is crucial to get admission based on MICAT. One must answer all the questions in the test.

The Psychometric Test is a preliminary test to assesses a candidate's behavioral and psychological traits before their aptitude is assessed in the MICAT exam. The goal of this section is to determine whether a candidate is good fit for the programme offered by the institute. The questions in this section may have two options among true or false. Alternatively, candidates may find questions that have four options. Answers marked by a candidate in each question will help analyse candidate's readibility to pursue the course from MICA.The psychometric section of MICAT is not a pass/fail test. However, candidates who do not perform well in this section will not be evaluated for further sections of the MICAT exam.

MICAT exam has three sections. All three sections have an indifferent marking scheme and pattern. All sections of MICAT does not have a negative marking. Section-A, Psychometric Test, is a qualifier test and does not have any negativbe marking. Similarly, Section-B, that is a Descriptive Test, does not have a negative marking. Negative marking of 0.25 marks prevail in the Section-C. Candidates marking an incorrect response in the thirkd section will lead to a deduction of 0.25 marks. Therefore, candidates are recommended to only choose an answer option in Section-C if they are sure of the answer. Guess work in Section-C may lead to decrease in the overall MICAT score.
