Nearly 3.2 Lac student to apepar in IIT-JEE 2008!

Nearly 3.2 lakh students would appear in the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE), on April 13 for admission into IITs across the country, registering an increase of about 70,000 candidates over last year.

There will be no change in the question pattern this time, said the officials concerned with the entrance examinations. "The format of the examination remains the same as before. It will comprise two papers of 200 marks each," said the officials.
Seven zones will conduct the test. Students qualifying for the entrance will be eligible to take admission to the IITs at Kharagpur, Mumbai, Chennai, Delhi, Kanpur, Guwahati and Roorkee. There are nearly 4,000 seats in these elite institutions. The candidates include 53,000 students from Delhi zone alone, added the officials. The test will be held in 600 centres across the country, including 117 centres in Delhi zone.
The IIT-JEE last year decided to change the pattern, making provision for two papers. Each paper consists of questions from physics, chemistry and mathematics.
