The HRD ministry and IIT Council arrived at a consensus over the entrance exam pattern for admission to the prestigious engineering institutes with an agreement on a new entrance test formula proposed by the IITs.
The agreement was reached at a meeting of the IIT Council convened in the capital to discuss the proposed common entrance test after oppositionf rom some of the IITs. The meeting was attended by directors of all IITs.
According to reports, all IITs have agreed to the new formula that has ended the row. In the new formula, two exams, main and advanced tests will be held.
The IITs would conduct an advance test in which top 1.5 lakh students from the CET would sit. This advance test would be held on a date different from the CET.
As per the new formula, IIT will take top 20 percent scorers of all boards and then conduct the final exam.
The new procedure will be implemented from 2013 session, if accepted by the ministry.
New selection process will be based on merit.
In an unexpected move, HRD Minister Kapil Sibal skipped today’s meeting with IIT Directors. Official sources saidthat he wanted to show that there is no political interference of the government in the decision.
After the crucial meeting ended, official from IIT Delhi said, “Now, no separate test is needed.”
"We have taken a unanimous decision to follow the formula suggested in Saturday's meeting. IIT will get control of advance test," said M. Anandkrishnan, chairman, board of governors, IIT-Kanpur.
Earlier, IIT-Delhi and IIT-Kanpur had rejected the proposed format on the ground that the test was"academically unsound and procedurally untenable".
The government had on May 28 announced the new test from 2013, under which aspiring candidates for IITs and other central institutes such as NITs and IIITs will have to take tests under a new format of common entrance test which will also take the plus two board results into consideration.
As per the news in the new Pattern IIT Exam the 70% weightage will be given to apptitute test and Class XII marks as well as other subjective test will be held for rest of 30% weightage. IIT Council Meeting the members Discussed about the weightage marks to calculate the Final IIT Result. the Final Ranks will be calculated based on 50% weightage based on Percentile Performance and 50 % weightage Based on the IIT JEE Score.
A common aptitude-cum-advanced knowledge test will replace the IIT Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) in 2013. Test scores will have 60 percent weight for admissions; school board marks will have 40 percent. Test and board scores will determine admissions to all centrally funded engineering institutions.
IIT JEE 2013 exam date is still not announced so I cant give you exact date of exam but every year this exam is conduct in month of April so it may possible that in 2013 this exam conduct will conduct in month of April.
