IIT-JEE
entrance test pattern is going to changed by
this year. JEE has changed its eligibility
criteria also. Eligibility criteria for
candidates appearing in qualifying examination
in 2006 is as follows: (i) The candidates
belonging to the general category must secure a
minimum of 60% marks in aggregate in their
Qualifying Examination. Candidates belonging to
SC, ST and PD categories must secure a minimum
of 55% in aggregate in the Qualifying
Examination. (ii) With effect from 2006, a
candidate is allowed only two attempts to write
JEE. Furthermore, he/she is allowed to write JEE
only in the year in which he/she passes the
qualifying examination and/or in the following
year.
I personally feel
that 60% marks criteria should not be there, it's
going to stop the way to IIT for several brilliant
student especially from Bihar. Major group of
students in Bihar are doing their 10+2 through
B.I.E.C. Patna and getting 60% marks is very
difficult for these students. It doesn't mean that
students are not meritorious. There were several
cases when a student was able to crack IIT-JEE in
first attempt and he failed in 10+2, that too in
Math, unbelievable... And in such cases don't
think about rechecking and reevaluation; these
words are only in dictionary for B.I.E.C. not in
practice. In general also B.I.E.C. syllabus is
tougher than other board syllabus, like in C.B.S.E,
one has to write exams only for 12th syllabus but
here in our case you have to go through both 11th
and 12th syllabus. So it's not fair to ask 60% in
general for all boards. There should be some
standard method for calculating equivalents marks
for different boards. One can calculate standard
deviation and mean for all the boards marks and
then make it rational, for example it may come
come like 60% of C.B.S.E = 55% of B.I.E.C. and
doing all these work doesn't require much effort,
since all the boards are computerized these days.
As far 2nd new criteria concern I welcome this.
It's good that student will appear for 2 years, if
they are getting OK otherwise move on for further
studies. It's good that now students will not
waste their several year for preparing the JEE
exam.

Yes
but Arjun Singh is busy in AMU,
reservation of 5% in IITs, also busy
writing his own history, funding
more anti-national institution so it
is least to expect anything from
him. Yes IIT in Kerala, Bengal also.
One will see IITs in future in
Pakistan and Bangladesh if Arjun
Singh hangs in that ministry for a
long while. - Satyadhar Joshi -

It
sounds ridiculous when you say that
someone cracks the IIT-JEE and fails
in 12th. Either there is some
problem with the IIT-JEE system or
in Bihar system. Knowing Bihar, the
latter is most likely. All of you
should rise and protest against such
a system. It is difficult but not
impossible. - Sudip Deb - Mar.
