A mock test software will also be uploaded on CBSE Website in Dec 2011 for the purpose of practice by the examinees. As indicated in the second paragraph, from this year, Kota will also be eligible as an examination centre for the online examination. 

In order to provide wider availability of application forms, this year CBSE has decided to accept applications for examination through online mode only and no physical form will be sold. This has been done to ensure availability of forms through CBSE/AIEEE Website at all places and without any time restriction i.e. available through out the day on 24x7 basis. 

The fee of the examination will be accepted through CREDIT/DEBIT Cards or Demand Drafts. To facilitate the students for filling online applications, a facilitation centre will be opened in each and every city from where physical forms were being sold in past. (PIB)
