Conducted by Anna University, Chennai (for the Government of Tamil Nadu)
TANCET is the state-level entrance test conducted by Anna University on behalf of the Government of Tamil Nadu for admission to MBA, MCA and M.E./M.Tech programmes at Anna University departments, its affiliated colleges and other participating institutions across Tamil Nadu. The MBA paper carries 100 multiple-choice questions to be answered in 120 minutes across five equally weighted parts, with a quarter of a mark deducted for each wrong answer. Unlike most MBA entrances it is written offline on an OMR sheet, and it places unusual weight on business-situation judgement and data sufficiency.

TANCET (Tamil Nadu Common Entrance Test (MBA)) follows this pattern:
- Questions: 100
- Total marks: 100
- Duration: 2 hours
- Difficulty: Medium
Crackto mock tests mirror this exactly, so your practice reflects real timing pressure rather than an approximation.
Crackto provides comprehensive analytics for every TANCET attempt:
- Score trend across attempts, so improvement is visible rather than assumed
- Section-wise breakdown pinpointing which areas cost you marks
- Accuracy versus speed, separating knowledge gaps from time-management gaps
- Percentile and rank against every other TANCET aspirant on the same paper
- Question-level time tracking to expose the questions that quietly drain your clock
Yes, absolutely. Retake any TANCET mock test as often as you like — retakes are not limited or charged separately.
Each attempt is stored on its own, so your analytics show the trend across attempts instead of overwriting your earlier score. Retaking a paper after reviewing its solutions is one of the most reliable ways to convert a weak section into a strong one.
TANCET, formally Tamil Nadu Common Entrance Test (MBA), is conducted by Anna University, Chennai (for the Government of Tamil Nadu).
Official notifications, application dates and results are published on the conducting body's own website: https://tancet.annauniv.edu. Always confirm dates and eligibility there — Crackto is a preparation platform, not the conducting authority.
The eligibility requirements recorded for TANCET are:
- Qualification: A bachelor's degree of minimum three years' duration (10+2+3 pattern) from a recognised university. Anna University does not prescribe a minimum aggregate for the MBA paper, though individual participating institutions may set their own. Final-year students may apply provisionally. There is no upper age limit.
Age relaxations commonly apply to reserved categories. Check the official notification for the exact relaxation that applies to you before applying.
TANCET is available in English.
Where a Crackto mock test is offered in more than one language, you can pick your language before starting the paper — practising in the language you will actually sit the exam in matters more than most candidates expect.
Crackto mirrors the official marking scheme of TANCET rather than applying a single blanket rule, so if the real paper penalises wrong answers, the mock does too.
The exact scheme for any given paper — marks per correct answer and the penalty for a wrong one — is displayed on that test's page before you begin, and again in your results breakdown afterwards.
The TANCET syllabus is defined by the conducting body and published with each notification.
Crackto mock tests are mapped to it section by section, so after a few attempts your analytics show which areas you have genuinely covered and which need work.
