EduNews: IITJEE Main 2018 cut-off score is lowest ever

- No comments

The cut-off score used for this year's IIT JEE Main to determine general category candidate's eligibility for JEE Advanced is the lowest ever and caps a four-year downward trend.
Professors at the IIT, which admit students on the basis of their JEE Advanced scores, suggested two possible reasons. One: an increase in available IIT seats; Two: top students' growing preference for non-engineering courses such as medicine. All those who scored more than 74 in the IIT JEE Main, out of a total marks of 360,will be allowed to take the JEE Advanced 2018.
Year
Cut-off score (out of 360) for JEE Advanced
2018
74
2017
81
2016
100
2015
105
2014
115
2013
113
When JEE Main and JEE Advanced were started in 2013, the cut-off used was 113. This increased to 115 the following year but has been falling every year since then.
Dr.Panigrahi of IIT Kharagpur and former JEE Advanced chairperson, said that in 2013, the IITs wanted the 1.5 lakh best IIT JEE Main candidates to take the JEE Advanced. In 2018, they want 2.2 lakh to do so. This could be because the institutes along with their seats have increased from about 9500 in 2013 to almost 12000 now.
Also, the number of students taking IITJEE Main has been declining from 13 lakh in 2013 to about 11 lakh in 2018. "Demand for engineering courses is falling. Large numbers of seats remain vacant in engineering colleges," Rajeev Kumar former professor of IIT Kharagpur now in JNU, said.
This fact is also supported by the data since number of students taking the NEET (National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test), which determines admission to undergraduate medical and dental courses, has grown from 8 lakh in 2016 to 13 lakh in 2018.

NEET and JEE Main to be conducted twice a year by NTA instead of CBSE

- No comments
The Center is considering to conduct the Entrance tests (NEET, JEE Main) for admissions to undergraduate courses in medical and engineering twice a year from 2019.

The government is in the process of setting up a National Testing Agency (NTA) which may start its operations from 2019. The agency will take over all the entrance tests now conducted by CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education). These entrance tests are NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) for MBBS admission, the JEE Main (Joint Entrance Examination Main) for B.Tech courses and the NET (National Eligibility Test) for selecting teachers eligible to be appointed in colleges and universities.

"The NTA (National Testing Agency) will initially conduct those entrance examinations which are currently being conducted by the CBSE ... Other examinations, tests will be taken up gradually after the NTA is fully geared up ... The entrance examinations will be conducted in online mode at least twice a year, giving adequate opportunity to candidates to bring out their best," HRD Minister of State Upendra Kushwaha said in a written answer in the Lok Sabha.

At present all these entrance tests NEET, JEE Main, NET etc. are held once in a year. If the proposal is passed, then from 2019 National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) and Joint entrance Examination Main (JEE Main) will be conducted twice a year by NTA instead of Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). NTA will also locate the examination centers at sub-district and district levels.
