Whither
thou goeth ? ( In Shakespearean )
Where are
you headed ? ( In Queen’s English )
That about
sums up the findings of AMCAT [ Aspiring Minds Computer Adaptive Test ],
conducted by the Mumbai University , for 5,000 final year undergraduate
students of 20 colleges in Maharashtra , between Nov 2011 and Feb 2012 ( Source
: DNA / 04, May 2012 )
Of these
5,000 students who appeared for the employability test , only 50 could be
placed !
Mumbai’s Thakur College
participated in the exercise in Dec 2011 , but none of its 930 students could
be placed !
The
Employability Testing project is expected to cover all 150,000 final year
students , studying at 400 colleges
Now , given
the several recent cases of “ leakage “ of examination papers of the University
, who can guarantee that even AMCAT Test may not get “ compromised “ !
After all,
jobs are at stake and companies , all over India , are cutting back on
recruitment of fresh graduates
