NTA is also establishing a countrywide network of Test Practice Centers (TPCs) for students in rural areas so that everyone will have an opportunity to practice before the exam. 2697 schools/ engineering colleges with computer centers are being made available on every Saturday/ Sunday starting from 1st September 2018 and any student can use the facility free of charge. An App is being developed which will enable the students to choose the nearest TPC.

The TPCs will have downloaded Computer Based Test (CBT) which will be similar to the actual test to be conducted on the exam day.
