1. INTRODUCTION
Soon after the formation of the Majlisu Ta’aleemil Islami, Kerala, a programme to identify
and nurture the talents of students took up the shape of a scheme called Majlis Talent Search
Examination (MTS Examination). The objective of this programme is to identify talented students
and award them with scholarships. During the first few years of the implementation of this
examination, it was confined to a few Majlis affiliated schools. But now it has encompassed
a wide range of schools both Majlis affiliated and others. The increase in enrolment of
students every year testifies the espousal and popularity the MTS has received in a short span
of time.
MTS Examination is held on the first Saturday of January every year for students of Classes I
to X.
