What you need

Steps

  1. Decide your licence category first. B1 Mechanical leans on airframes, engines, structures and propellers (Modules 11, 15, 16 and 17). B2 Avionics leans on electrical systems, digital techniques, electronics and instrumentation (Modules 4, 5 and 13).

  2. Download the official CAR-66 module guidelines from the DGCA India portal. Check the current question numbers and sub-topic weightage for each module before you buy or download any study material.

  3. Set up four digital folders or bookmark tags: DGCA CAR-66 syllabus, online CBT prep, e-learning resources, and Pariksha and CEO updates. Sort every file you collect into one of them.

  4. Fill the e-learning folder with reference books such as EA-66 or EASA textbooks, video lectures and links to regulatory circulars. Keep official documents separate from notes so you can find them fast.

  5. Study for understanding rather than memorising question banks. DGCA rewords questions to test technical understanding, so a memorised answer often fails when the wording changes.

  6. Sit timed mock tests that copy the real computer-based test interface. Track your scores and timing per module, and aim comfortably above the 75% pass mark before you book.

  7. Create or update your candidate profile on the DGCA Pariksha Portal and confirm your computer number is allotted. Your exam booking depends on this profile being complete.

  8. Digitise your Class 10 and 12 certificates, photo and signature to the size limits the portal states. Store them in one folder so nothing slows you down when an exam window opens.

  9. Book your paper (QPREF) and pay the fee through Bharatkosh the moment the window opens. One session allows more than one paper, so plan the order of your modules in advance.

Tips and common mistakes

Check the current per-paper fee on Bharatkosh before booking, since the amount listed in the source material may change.

Keep mock test history in one place so you can see which modules are still below 75%.

Upload documents well before the booking window, as last-minute uploads cause timeouts.

Book early in the window to avoid portal slowdowns on the day slots open.

Questions

What is the pass mark for the DGCA CAR-66 module exams?

You need 75% in each module. The exams are multiple-choice computer-based tests, so timing practice matters as much as knowledge.

Do I need a computer number before I can book an exam?

Yes. Your computer number is allotted through the DGCA Pariksha Portal, managed by the Central Examination Organization, so complete your profile first.

Can I book more than one module at a time?

A single exam session lets you sit for more than one paper (QPREF). Plan your module order so the heavier subjects do not land in the same session.
