MHRD’s official statement about JEE: JEE Advanced to be objective

Putting an end to the speculations about the new JEE pattern, MHRD finally issued an official notification on August 14^th.

Here are the highlights of the notice:

1. JEE 2013 would be in two parts – JEE Main and JEE Advanced.

2. JEE Mains: A board (called JEE Apex Board) has been constituted by MHRD. Ashok Mishra (former director, IIT Mumbai), would chair this board. Other members include Chairman of CBSE, representatives from MHRD, AICTE and different states (where IITs are located). This board would be responsible for conducting JEE Mains. Around 15 lakh students are expected to appear for this exam. It would be an objective exam (difficulty level comparable to AIEEE’s)

3. JEE Advanced: Expected to be conducted on June 2^nd, this exam would be objective (pattern and difficulty level same as IIT JEE 2012). 1.5 students would appear for it. This has come as a relief to students as they won’t have to change their preparation techniques.IIT Kharagpur would conduct JEE Advanced in 2013, with aid from the other IITs (according to a ‘Times of India’ report).

4. Advanced paper would have the same pattern as IIT JEE 2012, i.e. there would be two sessions (on the same day) testing students’ advanced PCM concepts.

5. Admission in IITs: For IITs, as decided earlier, the top 1.5 lakh scorers of Main exams (who are in the top 20 percentile bracket of their respective boards in terms of class 12 scores) would appear for the Advanced exam. After fulfilling the two criteria, the admission would totally depend on a student’s Advanced exam score.

6. State Engineering Colleges: If states wish to use the JEE scores to admit students in their regional colleges, then a separate merit list would be issued to them.

7. Paper can be in regional language on a state’s demand.

8. The 1.5 lakh students selected after the main exam would be from all categories, and not from open category. The percentage break-up for different categories is not known yet.

9. Board improvement exam: 2012 board candidates can appear for a board improvement exam in 2013, the arrangements for which would be made by their respective boards.

These are the most recent updates about JEE.

IIT Bombay wants 50,000 and not 1.5 lakh students to appear for JEE Advanced

IIT Bombay senate has approved the ‘compromise formula for JEE’ (a 2-tier exam and the 20 percentile board eligibility criteria). However,  it has objections on allowing 1.5 lakh students to appear for the final IIT entrance, i.e. advanced exam for JEE. The senate members, in a meeting on Wednesday recommended that the number of students appearing for JEE advanced be around 5 times the number of IIT seats, and not more.

Therefore, according to the suggestion,only the top 50,000 scorers of the main exam should be allowed to sit for the advanced paper, and not 1.5 lakh as suggested earlier by the IIT council.

According to sources, there might be two reasons behind this recommendation:

1. As NITs have decided to follow the 60% JEE Main + 40% board score formula, IITs don’t feel the need to screen so many students just for the 10000 odd IIT seats. Prof. Narasimhan, President of All India IIT Faculty Federation quoted, “There was a lot of debate on why 1.5 lakh students be screened for the advanced exam. Now that NITs are not part of the advanced exam, we suggested that the number should be less, essentially five times the number of seats, which comes around 50,000.”

2. Less number of examinees would allow flexibility to IITs for administering a subjective exam: According to sources, IITs are deliberating switching to a subjective pattern for JEE Advanced. In case of an objective exam, the evaluation of answer-sheets is computerized, which wouldn’t be possible in a subjective exam. It would be more convenient to evaluate 50000 subjective answer-sheets than 1.5 lakh as proposed earlier.

Highlights of the new JEE pattern proposal (the compromise formula) are:

1) Two exams, JEE Main and JEE Advanced.

2) 1.5 lakh top rank holders of JEE Main can appear for the advanced exam.

3) To be eligible for IITs, a student must be in the top 20 percentile bracket of his/her respective board (in terms of class XII scores).

IIT Bombay had met on Wednesday, July 25th, 2012 to discuss this compromise formula, where the suggestion to screen only 50000 students for the advanced exam was made. A similar meeting of IIT Kanpur senates is scheduled on July 28th. Also, even though IIT Bombay has accepted the pattern, the faculty and students are still against the idea, as was evident from the results of a poll.

A final decision would be taken by the Joint Admission Board in August.

IIT Kanpur accepts the JEE ‘compromise formula’, but has a few recommendations

IIT Kanpur has finally Okayed the 20 percentile formula for JEE 2013, but only as an interim measure. The approval has been given because IIT Kanpur does not want students to be in uncertainty any more.

In the words of an official, “The Senate recommended the IIT Council’s decision keeping in mind the urgent need to remove uncertainties from the minds of students. There is less time gap to put forth any objections.”

IIT Kanpur has been very verbal about its opposition to the common entrance test pattern, and even its acceptance of the 20 percentile formula is not without a list of recommendations. Here are the suggestions made by IIT Kanpur:

1. The eligibility criteria for the JEE 2013 aspirants who appeared for boards in 2012 must remain the same as before, i.e. 60% in boards. According to IIT Kanpur senate, the new eligibility criteria (top 20 percentile formula) would be unfair to the 2012 batch students, as there was no clarity about the importance of board marks during their exams.

Though the 2012 board candidates can reappear for boards in 2013, most students are of the opinion that it would be too stressful to appear for both the exams (JEE and boards) again.

2. IIT Kanpur also said that the number of shortlisted candidates must depend on the pattern of JEE advanced. If, for instance, JEE advanced is subjective, it would not be practical to shortlist 1.5 lakh toppers of JEE Main. 50000, suggested by IIT Bombay would be a more practical number in such case.

The Joint Admission Board (JAB) will meet shortly to discuss the pattern of the JEE advanced test.

3. The Kanpur senate has suggested that for JEE 2014 and beyond a senate committee should be formulated. This committee would analyse all the aspects of the admission process and make the recommendations for JEE 2014 and beyond accordingly.

After considering these recommendations, a final decision would be taken in August.

A compromise formula was agreed upon by IITs and MHRD on June 27th 2012 for new JEE pattern. Here are the key points of the compromise formula for those of you who are still not clear about the new pattern:

1) There would be a 2-tier exam: Mains and Advanced.

2) JEE Main would be an objective PCM exam, and all the aspirants can appear for it.

3) Initially it was decided that 1.5 lakh top rank holders of the main exam would be eligible to appear for JEE Advanced. IIT Bombay, in its senate meet has suggested that this number be reduced to 50000. As discussed earlier, more recently IIT Kanpur has suggested that this number must depend on the pattern of the JEE Advanced exam.

4) Advanced exam might be subjective (decision is pending regarding its pattern), and is the entrance exam for IITs.

5) Only the students in the top 20 percentile bracket of their respective boards would be eligible for admission in IITs, irrespective of their JEE Advanced scores.

6) The students who fulfil the board percentile criteria would then be judged solely on their JEE Advanced scores for admission in IITs.

Maharashtra to adopt New JEE in 2014-15

Maharashtra State Government is in favor of new Joint Entrance Exam ( JEE ) proposed by the HRDminister for engineering admissions.It will accept the new JEE format from2014-15 instead of 2013.

The decision to adopt the new JEE entrance exam format from 2014  is to benefit the students . The Maharashtra Government wants to ensure that the students get enough time to prepare themselves for it.Bringing into effect, the new IIT JEE entrance exam pattern from the year 2013 would not give them much time to prepare who are currently in class XII.

Maharashtra Government has ensured that the market already has the revised curriculum textbooks for students to start their preparations. The Government will propose 50 : 50 relative weightage to performance in the higher secondary certificate (HSC,Std XII) board exam and in the national JEE in admission to unaided engineering colleges in the state .But the Government has not taken a formal decision on it.The ministry prefers a 60:40 weightage ratio for the JEE and Board exam scores, but has left it to the State Government to take a call on the matter for admissions for unaided engineering colleges.

For the year 2013-2014, the exam pattern will remain the same.The Maharashtra Government will conduct MH-CET as the entrance examination. Higher Education Minister, Rajesh Tope , said that the department will look into redesigning and reforming the Class XII state board syllabus to cover topics that will appear in 

IIT-JEE 2013 Registered a New Record

This year, the Joint Engineering Entrance Exam(JEE), also known as the All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE), has registered a record of 14 lakh candidates enrolling for 2013 exams. This has been the highest numberever registered. The exam will be conducted in April 2013.

Experts say that the reason behind the rise in numbers is that many states are doing away with their state-level engineering exams. An increase in 2.8 lakh has been witnessed when compared to the previous years’ IIT applications. With the increase in number of IIT aspirants enrolling for the exam, competitions are also amplifying simultaneously. Indian students would face the toughest situation to get into the top universities. Qualifying the IIT-JEE Exam and getting admission into IITs would be more difficult, as there are some thousand seats available and  number of candidates range in millions.

IIT-JEE Examination 2013:

The exam will be conducted in two parts : JEE Main and JEE Advanced. While JEE Main will be administered by the Central Board of Secondary Education, JEE Advanced will be conducted by IITs.  Admission to National Institutes of Technology (NIT’s) and Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIT’s)would be based on JEE Main scores. The merit list for admission will be prepared by giving 40% weightage to class XII or other qualifying examination marks and 60% to the performance in JEE (main) examination.

The Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) has allowed a second attempt at board exams in 2013 to the students who have already appeared in 2012. This would give them a fair chance to make it to the top 20 percentile, eligible to write theAdvanced IIT-JEE 2013 test.

Earlier students concentrated on coaching for the IIT JEE Entrance Exam and preparedfor the class XII boards in a way that they scored the minimum marks. Giving weightage to Board results will encourage many students who are not exposed to intensive coaching. Now they too stand agood chance to be on the merit list by performing well in the CBSE Boards.

An Important News regarding class 12 board exams has been recently updated on a national news portal. The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has decided to design a common curriculum for Math and Science papers for class 12 board exam which would be effective from 2014 onwards. This would offer a level playing field to class 12 students from different boards while taking centralized entrance exams like the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE).

IIT-JEE Mock Test, Coming Forth.

It’s time for the candidates to gear up for the IIT-JEE 2013 Mock Test, which is to be held in the 2nd week of January. This test will be conducted for 3 months with the aim to make students aware of theNew JEE Pattern. More than 1.2 million students are expected to appear for this IIT JEE Mock Test. It will be conducted in both Written and Online formats. Candidates should prepare by practicing last year’s All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) mock test papers. 

They will also be allowed to make final changes in their IIT-JEE application forms in January 2013. Practice papers are available Online , and previous years’ question banks, sample papers and quiz’s can help students get familiar to the Question Paper Pattern.

Exams will be conducted in two parts, namely JEE Main and JEE Advanced. JEE (advanced) will replace IIT-JEE and will be conducted by the IITs and only the top 1.5% of candidates of JEE (main) merit list will be eligible to sit for the JEE (advanced). Board Exam marks will also be one of the Eligibility Criterion as students will have to be within the 20 percentile of successful candidates in their class 12 board. The merit list for admission  will be prepared by giving 40% weightage to class XII (or equivalent examination) or other qualifying examination marks and 60% to the performance in JEE (main) examination.

The Ministry of Human Resource Development has allowed a second attempt at board exams in 2013 to the students who have already appeared in 2012, to enable them to make it to the 20 percentile eligible to write the Advanced IIT-JEE 2013 test. Earlier, most students concentrated on coaching for the entrance exam and prepared for class XII boards in a way that they scored just minimum eligibility marks. But giving weightage to Board results has encouraged many students who are not exposed to intensive coaching. Now they too stand for agood chance to be on the merit list if they perform well in the Boards.

Cracking IIT-JEE: The Winning Mantra

In India, if you are a school student aspiring for a career in engineering or the parent of such student then the natural first choice is to aim for an IIT admission, as in some ways it is the guarantee of a successful professional career. The hopes to get an admission in IITs are so high that anything less is considered just a compromise. A good rank is required in IIT entrance exam to secure an admission in IITs. Securing a good rank in IIT-JEE is a cherished dream of not just the lakhs of aspirants who appear for the exam each year, rather a familial affair for every single one of them. Results of IIT-JEE are one the most awaited entrance exam results in India.

With these facts established, one must wonder where really am I getting at. The question of concern here is: are you actually prepared in the real sense to take head-on this competition? The intention here is not to intimidate or imply that a near-impossible task lies ahead, but rather that it can be done. The first and foremost is to tell oneself that you can do it, so have the winning attitude. Follow up the winning attitude with hard work and dedication. To achieve a good rank in the result of IIT-JEE you must plan your preparation for IIT-JEE at least one year in advance, most students start the preparation after class 10th to cover the syllabus and to leverage their chances of scoring high in IIT-JEE results, a few even join foundation programs of IIT coaching institutes.  You must realize that IIT entrance exam tests the students’ understanding of the fundamental concepts and application of those concepts to problems, unlike most other entrance exams.  Guidance from teachers or students who were successful in IIT-JEE in the past will be very helpful, but you must understand that each student has different aptitude and strengths, so what works for others may not necessarily work for you.

Everything in the perfect proportion and voila, success is what you have!

Getting selected for an IIT, the most sought after institute in our country for engineering studies is certainly not a cake-walk, and please remember that joining IIT classes in a coaching center does not guarantee success. As much as the students want to get a good rank in the result of IIT-JEE, IITs also want to let only the most refined and bright ones in. This explains the high standard of the entrance exam, and the herculean task for the students to get through.

IIT coaching institutes are the ones cashing in on this craze.

•Cracking IIT entrance exam means getting a good rank in results of IIT-JEE and it undoubtedly requires understanding of the complete depth and breadth of the concepts of each topic included in the course, so cramming the formulas and the methods and procedures to a few problems will never do the bit. A detailed and planned approach is needed for good IIT-JEE result. One needs to have solid fundamental knowledge or understanding of the concepts or “fundas” as the IIT-aspirants like to call it.

•To achieve a good position in IIT-JEE results, speed and accuracy both are required. With just speed, you are bound to make silly mistakes. However with just accuracy and no speed, you would never be able to finish the exam on time. So it is important to realize that one must balance speed with accuracy.

•Take IIT-JEE mock tests regularly. If you are enrolled in any IIT coaching institute then you will get mock tests from them as well. This will give you the opportunity to grade yourself periodically and allow you to understand your areas of strength and weakness from the results of IIT-JEE mock tests. You can prepare your own mock tests, but remember to create a complete simulation of the process (which means no distractions like phone calls etc.) otherwise the self-devised tests would be a waste of time and energy. You should take the mock tests from every topic of the syllabus.

•It is important to learn from the mistakes made in mock tests and tailor the future preparation based on the learning from the tests. This will ensure that you are well-prepared for the final entrance exam.

•Selective study is not an option for entrance exams like IIT-JEE. Each topic of study must be thoroughly studied to get a commendable IIT-JEE score. One seemingly unimportant topic might be the foundation of the most important one, and as stated previously, conceptual knowledge is the key. However smartly analyze the amount of time that should be devoted to each chapter. Don’t waste a lot of time on a less important topic. Follow the trends for questions from previous years’ entrance exams and find out the level of importance each chapter holds. Devote time to the concepts accordingly.

•Some other strategies might also be devised. A few concepts are such that not much variety in framing the questions is possible. However the problems for some other topics can be framed in numerous ways. If there is a lot of time in hand, then one must devote more time to understand the methods of solving the different problems of such topics compared to practicing similar problems of a topic one is confident about.

•However, during the last days of exam, devote more time to the topics that you know well instead of trying to understand completely new concepts and try to revise from every topic of the entrance exam syllabus. This will boost your confidence of the topics you understand well and you can score good marks from them. Please don’t indulge in revising from material given by IIT coaching institutes as majority of them are not even worth the paper they are printed on.

•Try to divide the problems depending on their difficulty level, assign different amount of allowed time for each level, and while practicing try to solve the problems in stipulated time.

•Don’t be lured by the fancy advertisements of different IIT coaching institutes. Majority of the IIT-JEE coaching institutes are involved in buying “topper ranks” to display in advertisements to attract new students. Parents and students must avoid such traps. Past years success of a particular institute is no guarantee for future success either.

•Concentrate on your school curriculum as well, because the topics required for engineering entrance exams are the same as covered in senior secondary boards. If the fundamentals are clear from school lectures itself, the effort required for IIT-JEE can be greatly reduced.

•Never let failure discourage you in any way. Learn from your mistakes rather than sitting and brooding over it. A few setbacks are normal; time won’t stop for you to get back on track, so don’t let failure stop you either. Keep moving forward towards your goal.

•Study to gain real knowledge, not just for the sake of finishing the chapter. Finishing a topic just as a formality would get you nowhere while preparing for the entrance exams as it would provide no value addition.

•There is a popular myth that if one has to excel at an engineering entrance exam, they must study at least 8-12 hours per day. Due to this belief, students are under an enormous amount of pressure from their parents, their schools and their IIT coaching centers. Everything in their lives other than studies comes to a standstill. This is not the right approach. One must take time out for other activities as well. Today smart-work more than hard-work bears the fruit. The results of IIT-JEE in past years reflect that the students who really excel are the ones who did not engross themselves completely into studies and their IIT classes, rather took time out for their hobbies as well.

•A well-planned schedule and a determination to stick to it are the real factors for success. Consistency is the virtue that will guarantee success.

•Take it for granted that the questions appearing in IIT-JEE entrance exam would have an element of surprise in it. The concepts behind the question may be the simplest ones, but never expect a straight-forward question. Sometimes in IIT entrance a single question may be prepared involving multiple topics of the syllabus and to solve them one must have fundamental understanding of the underlying topics. The trick to excel is training your-self to read between the lines. The solution part is generally very easy if the question is understood properly. Practice question papers from previous years’ IIT entrance exams as they would give you a proper idea about IIT-JEE pattern. IIT coaching institutes generally teach various tips and tricks for questions.

•While trying to solve a problem during practice, make sure that you have tried to the best of your capability to solve it your-self before referring to the solution.

1. Re-read the question again and again if that is what it takes to understand it.
2. Try conventional methods for a solution before resorting to the short-cut tips and tricks. It would help you understand the concept better.
3. Refer to the chapter’s concepts again and again to figure out all the possible ways in which they can be applied to reach a solution.
4. If you had to refer to the solution, then make sure to practice similar problems till you master the concept.
5. Think of the problem as an algorithm with which you need to proceed step by step without worrying about the next step. Once you have mastered the algorithm by continuous practice, you can skip the unnecessary steps to be quick.

•Any entrance exam paper is divided into difficulty levels. Some questions are easy, most are average and some are very tough. The students who excel are the ones who can do well in all the easy and average ones and a few very difficult ones to differentiate themselves from the majority. Divide your preparation into a similar process.

•Most top rank holders of the IIT-JEE are known to devise their own short-cuts for specific kinds of problems apart from the ones they may have learnt from IIT coaching centers. This can be achieved only with a detailed understanding of the “fundas”. Because the short-cuts are one’s own derivations, it is known to the person exactly where and how they can be applied.

The above stated are a few factors that would ensure if nothing else, a head-start to success in IIT-JEE and other engineering entrance examinations.
