GITAM MSC

I have completed B.SC Chemistry Degree from GITAM University. Now I am thinking to do M.Sc Degree from GITAM University. So tell me is there any Entrance Exam conducted by GITAM University? Give syllabus of Entrance Exam for admission in M.Sc Chemistry Course?

The GITAM University conducts Entrance Exam for admission in M.Sc Course.

As you need syllabus of Entrance Exam conducted by GITAM University for M.SC Chemistry, so here I am providing syllabus:
