Planning to get admission into top universities but cut off lists of competitive exams such as Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) or Delhi University (DU) playing spoilsport? Of course, everyone wants to be in top-tier schools. But not getting one doesn’t mean the end of your dreams. You can still crack the Indraprastha University Common Entrance Test or IPU CET 2021 to begin your college life. Remember, most top business leaders that we adore aren’t from the IITs or MIT.

For instance, the likes of Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, Adobe’s CEO Shantanu Narayen, and Mastercard’s Ajay Banga are non-IIT graduates and are currently at the helm of their organizations. So, what actually matters the most is your determination to achieve the dream. And for those who dream, cracking even the IPU CET Exam can help them achieve their destination.
