MP PPT (Pre Polytechnic Test) is the state-level entrance exam for admission to 3-year diploma engineering programs in Madhya Pradesh. It is conducted by MP Vyapam and scores are accepted by all government polytechnic colleges and most private polytechnic institutes affiliated with the Board of Technical Education & Training, MP. The exam grants admission to over 100 polytechnic colleges across the state. Candidates can choose from branches like Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, and Computer Science. There is also a separate lateral entry test for candidates seeking admission to the second year of diploma programs.

MP PPT is one of the few polytechnic entrance exams that includes a Hindi language section, reflecting the state's emphasis on regional language proficiency. The Science section covers both Physics and Chemistry from Class 10, and the Mathematics section tests algebraic, geometric, and arithmetic skills. The exam is conducted in offline OMR mode across multiple centers in MP. MP Vyapam ensures strict invigilation and transparent results through its online portal. The Hindi section typically covers grammar, comprehension, and vocabulary at the Class 10 level.

After MP PPT results are declared, MP Vyapam publishes a merit list based on marks scored in the exam. Counseling is conducted online where candidates choose their preferred polytechnic institute and branch. Seats are allotted based on merit, category, and availability. Government polytechnic institutes have lower fee structures and are highly sought after. Multiple rounds of counseling ensure that vacant seats are filled. Final admission requires document verification including marksheets, category certificate, and domicile proof.

Diploma holders from MP polytechnics can apply for Junior Engineer posts in Madhya Pradesh government departments like MP Electricity Board, PWD, PHE, and Water Resources. PSUs like BHEL, NTPC, and Coal India also recruit diploma holders for apprenticeship and permanent positions. Private sector employment is available in manufacturing, construction, and infrastructure companies. Many graduates pursue lateral entry to B.Tech programs from universities like RGPV Bhopal. MPESB (now MP Vyapam) conducts separate Junior Engineer recruitment exams where diploma holders are eligible.
