But as we entered the lab, the staff present gave us instructions on how to approach the exam and what all needs to be taken into account” Ishan Dave, a businessman who is aspiring to take up management studies Times of India July 3,2009 Like most of the others, when I heard about GCET going online, I was a bit skeptical and apprehensive. But the apprehensiveness soon transformed to contentment as i took the test on 1st of July. The whole online system and the functioning of GCET '09 does claims a special mention. The entire system from registering at the test centre till we got the score cards was indeed commendable. The functioning was user-friendly and smooth. The online test system was devised in the most considerate way, with one question appearing on the screen at a time, facility for going back and forth and also an option to mark a particular question for review later, along with question numbers catalogued on a side panel whereby the candidate can jump to any question as required. A meticulously developed and a well maintained system for online aptitude examination. Kudos!
