2. How JEE-Main came in to Picture?

4. “Alternative to IIT-JEE, AIEEE and State JEEs” Acharya Committee’s Report September 1,2010

5. Issues with current JEE (in 2010) JEE changes focus of students from 10+2 science education in School to Coaching for the JEE. JEE is urban centric and rural students without access to coaching fail to qualify. JEE is failed to produce a merit list that can correlate with good performance in engineering admission. The country has large number of Institutions with widely varying capabilities, focus and standards. Ref.: An interim Report submitted by the Acharya Committee to MHRD, Sep 1, 2010

6. Recommended Alternative National Aptitude Test (NAT) 1.NAT should be used to capture parameters such as raw intelligence, aptitude, general awareness, comprehension and written communication skills. 2.To change the existing system of multiple exams that has encouraged proliferation of coaching. 3.To consider school board result into IITs, NITs and CFTIs for improving scholastic education rather than coaching education.

7. To implement Acharya Committee’s suggestions and to analyse what would be its effect…

8. MHRD forms “Ramasami Committee” to assess the examination and admission system in engineering programs at present and to suggest new alternative

9. Developing Alternative Admission System Issues with considering board performance in IITs, NITs & CFTIs admissions: ▫ 40+ School Boards in the countries ▫Seat Matrix based on Pro-Rata is not possible ▫Decided to prepare Common Merit List (CML) ▫How to equate 40+ School Boards? ▫Committee went to ISI (Indian Statistical Institute, Calcutta) for their recommendation.

10. Recommendation by ISI September 2011 Treating percentile scores of students in their respective boards at equivalence would be the only logical and fair way to normalize different board scores. Normalize Board score (using percentile rank) should be done w.r.t. Common Entrance Exam taken by all board students. School Board must give Percentile Rank (PR) Ref.: An interim Report submitted by the Ramasami Committee to MHRD, Sep 2011

11. Ramasami Committee’ Report The committee makes the following recommendations for the consideration of the IIT council ▫Normalized Board Scores should be used for the admission to IITs, NITs, Other CFTIs ▫One National Screening Test (NST) with two sections namely Aptitude and Advanced could be designed and developed. Ref.: An interim Report submitted by the Ramasami Committee to MHRD, Sep 2011

12. 44 th Meeting of the Council of IITs 12 May 2012

13. Procedure for implementation of JEE JEE would be conducted in two parts: ▫JEE-Main ▫JEE-Advanced Both test will be objective and multiple choice type There will be same PCM syllabus for both the exams JEE-Main: Foundational understanding type questions JEE-Advanced: Problem-solving abilities type questions Ref.: MHRD, F.No.42-3/2012-TS.I Aptitude

15. 45 th Meeting of the Council of IITs 27 June 2012 Due Weightage to Board

16. Invitation to State Gov. for JEE-Main Ref.: MHRD, F.No.42-3/2012-TS.I

17. Summary – Why Common Entrance Test? 1.To avoid multiple entrance examination 2.To encourage scholastic education rather than coaching education 3.To gauge raw intelligence instead of PCM as it is already tested at board level 4.To give due weightage to board and CET for the admission of IITs, NITS & Other CFTIs

20. Basic Issues We can’t sum two quantities with different units ▫I walked 100 meter then I walked 50 meter so total I walked 150 meter ▫But I walked 100 meter then I walked for 5 minute so it is not 105 meter or 105 minute Board Exam’s Result is around 95% & JEE- Main’s Result is around 5% so there is no way to mix them smoothly.

27. JEE-Main is a screening test for IITs and it cannot be used to prepare merit list of state admissions because it doesn’t distribute all students in uniform pattern

30. 3. To encourage scholastic education rather than coaching education Every year 2.50 Lakh students go to Kota from across the India for JEE Preparation. ▫Avg. Classroom Coaching Fees is 2,00,000 Rs. ▫Avg. Corresponds Course Fees is 20,000 Rs. Moreover coaching institutes from Kota have opened their branches in all major cities of India. Local Players also have started JEE coaching. Enormous & misleading Advertising of JEE & IIT creates pressure on students & parents to join coaching classes.

36. Pro-Rata Method Separate merit list for GB, CBSE, ISCE, IB, etc … Seat Matrix is prepared based on proportionately of number of eligible students from each board. Seat Reservation is based on 1)Board wise 2)Category wise

37. Limitations of Pro-Rata Method

44. Absolute Method based on Percentage Merit list is prepared directly from Percentage But different boards have different mark distribution pattern

45. Awarding Higher Marks If board marks would be used directly for admission, it is likely that there would be pressure on boards to award higher marks. Compared to 2012, there had been a 36% jump in students scoring over 90% marks and 62% jump in students scoring over 95% marks in 2013 CBSE result.
