SET is conducted in a computer-based test (CBT) mode and assesses candidates on four key sections: General English, Quantitative Aptitude, General Awareness, and Analytical & Logical Reasoning.

Candidates with a valid Class 12 pass certificate (50% marks for General, 45% for SC/ST) are eligible to apply. The selection process includes the Personal Interaction (PI) and Written Ability Test (WAT) rounds conducted by individual Symbiosis institutes.
