Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Getting Your Children ready for Computer based NEET- JEE

 

 

Dear Parents / Principals :

Given the following News / Background , there is no time to lose

 

Time is NOW for your children to start :


Ø  Practicing Questions and Answers on their mobiles

 

Ø  Such practice using  >  www.My-Teacher.in ( No registration or login or fees )

 

News :

Ø  NEET-UG exam to be conducted online? Health Ministry, NMC on board to switch..  ET.. 13 July 2024

 

Extract :

The Union health ministry and National Medical Commission (NMC) are preparing to transition the NEET-Undergraduate (NEET-UG) exam

Ø  From a pen-and-paper Optical Mark Reader (OMR) format

Ø  To a computer-based test (CBT).

This shift is aimed at enhancing exam security and efficiency, following concerns over leaks and manipulations in previous exams.

 

The other major school exit exam – Joint Entrance Examination ( JEE ) – that determines admission to engineering colleges, however requires a student to attain a minimum of of 75 % in class 12 boards

The higher cut off in JEE serves two purposes:

Ø  Students cannot ignore school-level study

Ø  It helps to filter out overall student pool and ensure a certain base level of competence

 

 

Background :

 

There are only 1.10 lakh seats in all 710 medical colleges ( Government + Private ) combined. As against this, some 24 lakh students appeared in NEET held on 05 May 2024

The situation for engineering colleges is not much different.

For the JEE Main 2024, a total of 11.70 lakh students appeared for the B.Tech paper across both sessions (January and April)

In 2023, around 43,204 students were offered admission in IITs, NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs through JoSAA counselling

India has around 23 IITs, 31 NITs, 25 IIITs, and 28 GFTIs offering approximately 54,477 seats

The JEE (Joint Entrance Examination) is a computer-based test (CBT).

Both JEE Main and JEE Advanced are conducted online, except for the Drawing Test for B.Arch aspirants, which is a pen-and-paper-based test

JEE Main comprises multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and numerical value-based questions in subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics.

JEE Advanced follows a similar format but with more complex and challenging questions designed to test the deeper understanding and problem-solving abilities of the candidates.
