Delhi Delhi: Newton School of Technology has announced India's first UG entrance exam – coding Newton Scolastic Aptitude Test (coding NSAT) focused on coding and fundamental programming skills. Unlike traditional examinations, in which intensive knowledge is required in physics, chemistry and mathematics, coding NSAT evaluates practical coding capabilities, which provides a unique alternative passage for admission to Newton School of Technology. While solving the problems of the real world and focusing on programming efficiency, the coding entrance examination ensures evaluation based on skills and ability rather than traditional academic marks, giving students an opportunity to further enhance their skills.

Interested technologists and students can apply for admission to Newton School of Technology in complexes of Sonipat, Pune and Bangalore. The first entrance examination of its kind for UG entry provides an innovative passage for passionate students towards practical programming, emphasizing practical skills compared to rote concepts.
