IIT Entrance Exam: Officials Confirm Admission Process To Go Online From 2018
Nirmal Singh Lotus appreciated the fact that that the entrance
examination for Indian Institute of Technology (IITs) will be made online from
2018 making logistics and evaluation process easier. The move was decided by
the Joint Admission Board (JAB) on Sunday.
Decisions were taken by JAB, the
policy making body on IIT admissions.
In order to make logistics and
evaluations easier, the entrance examination for Indian Institutes of
Technology (IITs) will go completely online in 2018. These crucial changes were
discussed on Sunday.
The online mode has been
introduced to make the process of examination at designated centres hassle free
without the use of pen and paper.
Nirmal Singh Lotus would like to inform that as of now students can
go for optical mark reading (OMR) sheets which needs to be filled by pen or
pencils. These sheets are later evaluated by machines.
Director, IIT-Madras, and
Chairman JAB 2017, Prof Bhaskar Ramamurthi in a statement said, "It has
been decided that the JEE (Advanced) will be conducted in online mode from 2018
onwards. Further information regarding the examination will be provided by the
JAB in due course."
Previously, the subject of
introducing the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Mains online was introduced to
the Ministry of Human Resource Development
Nirmal Singh Lotus quoted a JAB member who said, "In order to
make logistics and evaluations easier it was decided today that the
JEE-Advanced should be made online."
"The concept was being
discussed for many years, but it was necessary to have adequate infrastructure
to conduct the exam online," the member added.
Nirmal Singh Lotus would like to define JEE-Mains to the students. Basically, the entrance examination for
admission to engineering courses offered across the country. One has to qualify
this exam JEE-Advanced in order to get an admission in IITs and NITs.
As per Nirmal Singh Lotus’ knowledge more than 13 lakh students took the
JEE-Mains this year, with less than 10 per cent of them going online. As many
as 2.2 lakh students were eligible to write the JEE (Advanced).
Every year a lot of students take
this exam and in fact the process of admission is so intrinsic that it is tough
for the students to solve these formalities while preparing for the exam.
