R. RAVIKANTH REDDY:
Students who have passed out Intermediate and
12th class in 2012 and aim to appear for the IIT-JEE next year will be
allowed to take exams again to improve their marks enabling them to figure
in the top 20 percentile of the respective boards, which is mandatory for
the IIT test from next year.
As per the new norms students have to be in the top 20 percentile
of the respective boards to gain eligibility for the IIT-JEE next year,
irrespective of the scores they get in the test, which will be held in two
layers – IIT-Main and IIT-Advanced. The HRD Ministry’s meeting held recently to
constitute the JEE Apex Board (JAB) for the smooth conduct of the test discussed
the issue at length and provided this opportunity for the repeaters.
The notification issued said that the respective State Boards
would make appropriate arrangements for helping out these students through a
special dispensation. Students from Andhra Pradesh would immensely benefit with
this as majority of them tend to ignore the board exams to allocate more time
for the IIT-JEE preparation. Since the ‘top 20 percentile’ condition is a recent
one, the IIT-JEE repeaters in the State were in a dilemma whether they would get
a chance to improve their scores.
