Taking JEE (M) and NEET Twice Will Increase Opportunities But May Favour Luck Over Merit
Deepak Kumar, a science student of class 11 preparing for JEE (mains), appeared happy and relaxed as he walked into his weekend classes in Delhi's Kalu Sarai, a veritable hub of engineering and medical entrance coaching centres.
According to his friends, his countenance displayed a marked change since the HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar's surprise announcement on Sunday informing students that they can now appear for the crucial National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) and Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main twice a year.
As part of reforms introduced to the structure of the crucial, state-supervised examinations, Javadekar further announced that instead of the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) that was so far responsible for the tests, the newly formed National Testing Agency will now be conducting the examinations.
Aspirants can now appear twice for the same seat and the best of the two scores shall be considered for the admission.
NTA will also take over conducting the UGC-NET examinations which were earlier conducted by the CBSE.
Another major announcement Javadekar made was that from now all examinations will be held online and students only have the option to appear for the tests online.
Opportunity doubled
Abhinandan, a school pass-out and currently preparing for JEE(M) from Fitjee in Kalu Sarai said that making the tests online would help students save precious time during exams.
"The OMR sheets that earlier had to be manually filled in were tedious and required a lot of time and unnecessary effort. Students also had to answer correctly at one go or the answer would stand cancelled. Online OMR sheets will allow students to review their answers and change the response if they need to," said Abhinandan.
Other students also felt that the two exams will give an opportunity to those who have weaknesses to polish their flaws before the next sitting.
