The education system in India is divided into different levels: primary education (grades 1-5), secondary education (grades 6-10), higher secondary education (grades 11-12), and tertiary education (undergraduate and postgraduate programs).

The duration of undergraduate programs is typically three to four years, depending on the field of study. Postgraduate programs, such as master's degrees, usually last for two years. However, the duration may vary depending on the university and the specific program.

Many universities in India require students to take entrance exams for admission to undergraduate and postgraduate programs. Some popular entrance exams include JEE Main and JEE Advanced for engineering, NEET for medical sciences, CAT for management programs, and GATE for postgraduate engineering and technology courses.
