Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) to bring a new pattern for Joint Entrance Exam (JEE) in 2013

The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) are all set to bring a new change in the pattern for Joint Entrance Exam (JEE) which was conducted every year across the country. The changed exam pattern would be followed from the year 2013.

The new pattern of JEE might include an aptitude test for the exam aspirants. The students will have to crack this aptitude test consisting of questions based on reasoning and all other subjects that the students have studied in their school level. The aptitude test would also include questions related to subjects like physics, chemistry and maths.

This arrangement has been proposed with an aim to reduce the pressure on the students.

There are 42 state boards and because of this reason, some kind of uniformity has to be established to match the performance of the individual students (in their class XII) with each other. And when so many boards are there and each one of them has its importance, the percentile match is the only way out to calculate the student’s performance.

It is an extremely tough task to bring about uniformity in the percentages secured by the students in their class XII results as the percentage secured by a student in one state board varies from the percentage secured by some other student in other state board. To bringing this uniformity, the percentages of students would be converted into percentiles and this would be used for further comparisons among the students.

As different states have different boards and there are only two Central boards – CBSE and ICSE, it will be a difficult task to establish uniformity in the percentages achieved by an individual student when comparing his performance with the other individuals.

For this, the percentage of marks achieved by the students would be converted into a percentile. This would be done through virtual mapping by Indian Statistical Institute (ISI), Kolkata. 50% weightage would be given to this percentile performance and other 50% weightage would be given to the performance in the JEE.

    THIS PATTERN IS NOT SUITABLE FOR THOSE WHO PREFER TO COACHING BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE PRACTISE OF NUMERICALS AND THEY CAN NOT TO SCHOOL.

    based on the boards syllabi it would be difficult to crack jee..including board marks will rather increase our miseries..we will have to secure BEST marks in boards as well as study for the entrances(and not to forget the rattu tota..:P i mean crammers who just cram up ncert and wil secure eligibility for iit)..competition will increase burden more..and moreover boards syllabi is too diluted to increase logical aptitude of students..imediately after 10th students will be burdened with so much of things..cbse upto 10th is just nothing..icse is although better than cbse but then also it isnt enough for sharpening the logical apt..

    the new pattern seems to be really worthy.marks secured in entrance examination is not a single good reason to enter into iit.aptitude test and skills must be tested to improve the quality of students.

    why 12th std marks? we don’t have faith in any boards.where the credibility of boards like igcse is getting diluted,God knows about other boards.people with money and power can get things done in their favours. only the entrance exams are ray of hope for the studends who study honestly.

    This new pattern is really appreciable…reason..?? because if u r creating issues on this..just answer a simple question…how far it is fair for those students whose ranks are blocked by the those students attaining high ranks in other competitions..?? By this new pattern student will have one chance … one rank… one institute…one life time opportunity… it sounds like “all or nothing”.
    Another thing is that other subjects like social science and english will also be included.. through which their importance will also be enhanced.. i toh loved this pattern.

    THIS IS A VERY GOOD PATTERN BECAUSE THERE WILL BE A IQ TEST ALSO WHICH INCLUDES questions OF PHY,CHEM&MATHS.

    hey, friends tum log sayad samjhe nahi ki ye ko weightage diya ja raha usse koi phark nahi parne wala kyuki ek hi entrance exam hoga and the reputed institution like iit will choose their geniuses on the basis of that . look guys the directors of iit are not fool they are also the iitians .so they can understand what is good for this country .

    agar IIT 12th board based ho jata hai toh NCERT rat ne wale hoge IIT’S banege aur ye desh gadhe chalain ge.PLEASE OPPOSE THE NEW PATTERN OF IIT…

    Why to schooling percentages and calculating percentiles. If the student is capable enough to crack the IIT exam then he will do so. Instead of creating lot many issues to the student take single test and consider only Entrance Exam marks.
