Hello there,
If you missed the TANCET exam this year, here’s what you can do for MCA admission:

If you missed TANCET this year, you cannot apply through regular counseling without the exam score.
Alternative options:
Check if the college offers direct admission or management quota seats without TANCET.
Look for private universities or institutes that admit MCA students based on your graduation marks without TANCET.
Prepare and appear for TANCET next year.
You can also explore MCA admission in other states or universities where entrance exams may not be mandatory.
In short, TANCET is generally compulsory , but some private colleges might allow admission without it under certain quotas. Contact the colleges directly to confirm.
