University admission tests

Twenty-eight vice chancellors of universities were supposed to meet to decide on probable dates for admission tests for the 2017-18 academic session. The public universities have recently declared their test dates. The admission test of KUET will be on October 20 and the test of CUET will be held the next day on October 21. Both the tests for Rajshahi University and Chittagong University are scheduled for October 22 to 26, and 30, respectively.

We can't possibly travel from one end of the country to another in the space of one or two days to take these tests. It'll also be a huge financial burden for some of us. I would like to request authorities to arrange a single admission test – one for BUET, CUET, KUET and RUET, and another one for DU, JU, RU, CU, KU, etc.
