Hi Aspirant!

Economical Weeker Section (EWS category) falls under the General Category, so it is written as Gen - EWS. Also, the PESSAT does not provide any reservation criteria for students of any category.

The admission is purely based on merit on the basis of score/rank achieved.

So, in the form you can fill out the Gen-EWS (if option is available), otherwise simply fill out General category.
