Some universities accept different exams depending on the program. For engineering, JEE Main is the standard entrance exam that most government and private colleges accept. For other fields like medicine you'd take NEET, for commerce you might look at CUET or state exams, and for law there's CLAT. It really depends on which stream interests you.

CLAT is run by a consortium of national law universities and gets you into multiple NLUs across India, giving you broader options. AILET is conducted by Delhi's National Law University specifically for admission there. CLAT is the larger national exam with more colleges to choose from, while AILET is your dedicated path to NLU Delhi if that's your top choice. Both happen in December, so you can take both.

For engineering, JEE Main opens doors to the most colleges across India, including NITs, IITs, and hundreds of private colleges. If you're exploring other fields like medicine, law, or commerce, those exams like NEET, CLAT, and CAT have their own broad reach too.
