The test, scored out of 1,000 points, measures practical IT competencies required in real industry settings, beyond theoretical knowledge. Students can prepare for TOPCIT by consulting official study guides on the TOPCIT website. Consistent hands-on practice and project experience are crucial for high scores.
Exclusive Support for HBNU Students
