My Experience

As I got the OMR sheet and questions, I felt nervous. This exam was my chance to get into MCA colleges, so I just wanted to pass. I focused on solving the math problems and filling the OMR carefully. Time flew by, and I finished on time, but I still had doubts about some questions. Even though I completed the exam within the time limit, I didn’t feel completely satisfied. But I stayed hopeful that the counselling process would help me get into my dream college. And now, I’m happily studying MCA there.

In summary, my JECA exam journey was filled with nerves, determination, and hope. Despite facing doubts during the test, I stayed focused on my goal of getting into an MCA program. Other students typically prepare by studying hard, practising with mock exams, and managing stress. Each finds their way, but dedication and perseverance are key.
