NEW FORMAT OF JEE 2013: REPEATERS TO APPEAR IN ALL EXAMS TO IMPROVE BOARD PERCENTAGE

The Central Board of Secondary Education on Thursday announced the revised scheme of entrance examination for admissions to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), National Institutes of Technology (NITs) and other Centrally-funded technical institutions.

After discussions with the stakeholders, the CBSE has decided to hold a Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) from 2013. Under the revised scheme, JEE will be held in two parts: JEE (Main) and JEE (Advanced). The All India Engineering Entrance Examination will now be called the JEE (Main) and the IIT-JEE will now be referred to as JEE (Advanced). The JEE (Advanced) will have an exclusive Joint Admission Board and Joint Implementation Committee. The first exam — JEE (Main) — will be held on April 7, 2013 for BE/ B Tech/ B Architecture.

While all candidates will take the JEE (Main) which will “be the gateway” for JEE (Advanced), only top 150,000 students who qualify the JEE (Main) will be eligible to take the JEE (Advanced). This will include all reserved categories as well.

However, there is a difference in policy regarding the IITs. Admission to IITs will be based on “category-wise all India rank in JEE (Advanced) subject to the condition that such candidates are in the top 20 pecentile of successful candidates in class XII or an equivalent examination conducted by the various boards.

Admission to NITs and other Centrally-funded technical institutions like the IIITs and participating institutions will be as per rank list that will be based on 40 per cent weightage on school board marks in class XII or equivalent examination and 60 per cent weightage on JEE (Main).

MOST IMPORTANT

For droppers you will have to appear in all exams to improve your percentage in XII.

THREE ATTEMPTS ALLOWED FOR JEE MAIN

Students appearing for the newly-announced Joint Entrance Exam (Main) 2013 will have three attempts to clear the exam, a new document has said. The JEE (Main) will determine entry to National Institutes of Technology and centrally-funded engineering colleges, and will be the first stage exam for entry into the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).


Last week, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), which will conduct the exam, had announced that the offline test would take place on April 7, 2013, while the online tests will be held between April 8 and April 30 next year. Students can choose to write the test in either mode.
“The number of attempts which a candidate can avail JEE (Main) shall be limited to three for all the candidates in consecutive years,” said the document.
Those who finished Class 12 in 2011 or 2012 will also be eligible to appear for next year’s exam, in addition to the 2013 batch. The document also clarifies that students will be able to improve their Class 12 board exam performance, since these marks will also carry weightage from next year.
According to the new document, the three-hour exam will have objective type questions and multiple-choice questions. For each wrong answer, one-fourth of a mark will be cut, but there will be no deductions for not attempting.
