class-12 marks and aptitude-test for iit entrance. what are your thoughts??
None

Guys, yesterday Mr. Kapil Sibbal announced that class XII board marks & an Aptitude test will be criteria to entrance into IITs very soon! Of-course JEE 2011 aspirants need to worry yet, because for them nothing changes, but it's only a matter of time when the new system kicks in. JEE 2010 might be a strong candidate for the new format!

What are your thoughts on the same. Share with us!

Oh the timeline for the new one is not set yet. its going to take atleast 2 yrs to implement (unless the HRD shows some serious action). post corrected to avoid ay confusion for 2011 aspirants. As stated, the timeline is not set yet, but the change is definite now. earlier it was primarily speculation. check this out for confirmation: http://ibnlive.in.com/news/class-12-marks-aptitude-test-for-iit-entrance/130725-3.html

this should be opted if the level of all the state boards exams is same,in some boards (to be frank my state board) u can get 80 percent easily by just reading 1 week before the exam,and some students who r really gud at studies cant ace boards! i htink this is not a good thought

actually a discussion on unifying the boards across the country is also majorly on, in the education circles. this will be a great practice since the numptiple boards have set some really serious discrimination on effort to result ratio (as rightly added by 'flash'). lets keep our fingers crossed. cheers

If this change is made from JEE 2011 then this the most worst nightmare that an IIT aspirant can think about after not clearing JEE.This change should be done from 2012 onwards as the students how are presently in XII may work hard in boards.But for 2011,the present pattern should be inculcated,as the New Pattern can blow away the opportunity of the aspirants of JEE 2011.It worst as compared to reservation.HRD & the IIT Council is unpredictable.Not many of the toppers go qualify IITs,ask many of them a question of Pure Knowledge,they are blown away like a leaf & many with 60 to 75% marks do wonders.I have seen my friend who got just 62% in boards but got an AIR around 3000.One more point of view,rather of an aptitude test,Screening is a better option.There should be a screening exam,on which each one would be provided AIR & those who qualify the exam would be allowed for the mains.If a candidate fails to qualify the mains,rather wasting his or her talent they should admit them to NITs or other big institutes.The same should be followed by the ranks of those who by bad luck of few marks didn't qualify the screening.This would be a great thing & any one depending on the rank obtained should allowed to take admission in any of the college,in any part of the Country.Around 60% should be a criterion in boards.If one tops his respective boards then there should be allowance for him to get into the IITs but mind it they should also check him as the guy may be like Chatur Ramalingam & not like Rancho.The pattern should change from 2012 as many in XI & XII can ponder on it.If this happens from 2011 itself then many of the droppers would be in no man's land.This is my point of view.

it is a good idea bcoz it can ,through its aptitude test, eliminate the cramers and muggers of  IITs and AIEEE competitive exam... it can also get the concept of text books clear to all rather than running to coaching institutes wasting time and money .

i am from kerala state.my state board is considered to be one of the best in india having a great standard.scoring more than 80 % is a challenging one.i have scored 82%in total and 72% in MPC.i am dropping this year to compete in jee,keam etc.if the government is changing the current pattern it will be the most worst thing to the droppers.we have no money to join other private colleges.the government is arguing that the change is implemnting in order to discourage the coaching institutes. but the government has to remeber one thing,THE IIT'S MUST GET THE INTELLIGENT STUDENTS,NO CAST,NO RESERVATION,NO STANDARD OF FAMILY (MONEY) DOESNOT DETERMINE THE MERIT,HARD WORK OF THE POOR STUDENTS MUST BE CONSIDERED.

 its quite impractical due to the regional differences coz  each state board has its level of toghness we cant unite the boards also coz then the common exam and the syllabus on the whole would have to be tough (other wise its pointless) this would lead t o drastic decrease in the pass percentage  in states like bihar where illetaracy is rampant well this is what i think
