DILR stands for Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning. The DILR section is the main section of the CAT exam and is designed to assess applicants’ abilities to solve logic-based questions and comprehend data sets. 

The DILR section is the most the most unexpected and challenging part of the CAT exam. So, candidates need to choose the correct strategy for this section. 

You need to start your preparations by solving questions relating to simple concepts such as ranking, seating arrangements, mathematical reasoning, Venn diagrams, etc. 

I have listed the strategies that I followed to prepare the DILR section:

• Time management
• Understanding the question pattern
• Practicing via mock tests
• Solving previous year question papers

The exact number of seats will depend on the MBA specialization you are looking for. Since you have not mentioned any specialization, I will talk about the general MBA program.

LPU offers MBA in 21 specializations. The total seats for general MBA program at LPU is 480.

If you have qualified for the final interview round for the PhD program and have been selected for the PhD program in the August or January session, you are eligible to be admitted to the PhD program at LPU. 

If you fail to take admission in the August or January session, then your candidature will be canceled.

LPU does not offer direct MBA admission based on graduation scores. MBA admission at LPU is based on LPUNEST or CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, or NMAT scores. If you score the minimum marks in either of these exams, you are selected for GD/PI rounds. 

The LPU MBA eligibility criteria is to have a bachelor’s degree (in any discipline) or equivalent with 55% aggregate marks. 

If your JEE Mains percentile in the January attempt is 72.85 percentile, then you cannot get admission to CS at LPU. Candidates need to gain a minimum 80 percentile to get admission based on JEE Mains. 

I have mentioned the LPU CSE cut-off below:

1. Category I cut-off: The tentative cut-off is 300 marks out of 400.
2. Category II cut-off: The tentative cut-off is 212 marks out of 400.
3. The tentative category III cut-off is 150 marks out of 400.

I applied for the BTech ECE course at Parul University last year. The eligibility criteria for admission is as follows:

• You need to pass 12th with mandatory subjects - Physics, Chemistry, Maths/Biology. 
• You need to score at least 45% of marks in theory and practical in these subjects. 
• There is a 5% relaxation of marks for reserved category students (SC/ST/OBC).

• The minimum eligibility criteria for the undergraduate courses at Parul University is qualifying class 12, with at least 50% of marks. 
• There are no specific entrance exams for admission, but for the BTech courses, you’ll need a valid JEE-Main score.
• For postgraduate courses, like an MBA, you will need a graduation degree with at least 50% of marks. Relaxation of marks is applicable for the reserved categories (SC/ST/OBC). 

No, the questions in the LPUNEST exam are different for each course. They are designed to suit the specific course type and its level. The questions are based on your previous education. It comprises of subjects and topics related to your chosen course or field of study. You will be assessed based on your aptitude and knowledge of your discipline/field. 

This approach helps the university in evaluating the candidate’s skills for the desired course. The university also offers integrated and dual-degree courses. For such degrees, the LPUNEST exam pattern remains the same as that of a regular course.

To get admission to the BTech course at LPU, you need to appear in the LPUNEST exam. The expected tentative cut-off for Category II B.Tech. admission is 212 marks out of 400, and the expected tentative cut-off for Category III B.Tech. admission is 150 marks out of 400.

You can take admission to law courses by qualifying for the CLAT exam. To appear in the exam, you must meet the valid criteria established by the Consortium of NLUs. The minimum eligibility criteria for this CLAT exam is that candidates need to qualify for the 12th exam or equivalent exam with at least 45% marks from a recognized board or institution. SC/ST category students need 40% marks in class 12th.
