Projected Schedule Timeline for JEE Entrance

From next year, the present IIT-JEE and All India Engineering Entrance Examination will be replaced by the two-tier Joint Entrance Examination (JEE).


The JEE-Main will be an objective-type test conducted by the CBSE with support from the CFTIs.(Centrally funded Technical Institutes).JEE Advanced will be taken by IITs

  1. 1. To ease pressure on students preparing hard for Engineering as their career, State Boards should be asked provide percentile for all "PASSED" students based on only P-C-M score and not all subjects.
    2. Both Mains and Advanced should be conducted twice (in a gap of 1-2 weeks) and best of 2 tests to be considered for ranking. This will help easing pressure on single "D-day" and if a student is unable to attend exam for one day for medical reason, he/she stands a chance by attending the test on 2nd day.
    3. IITs should be given freedom to decide (and stick to) cuff-off percentile from Board Exam and weightage they want to give for Mains and Advanced. Like currently agreed proposal 150k students from Mains and Top-20% students of boards are also fine if IITs have decided it. That decision should be with IITs. However, it should be fixed at least 2 years in advance, so that students preparing for JEE, know rule of the game upfront.
    4. Similarly, Individual States should have the freedom to decide cut-off and weightage of scores in Main and/or Advanced tests' score for admission to institutes under their control. Additionally States should have the freedom to provide some special quota-within-quota (with a max. limit fixed for the country) for students from that state (domicile in that state but from any board). However, rules of the game must be fixed 2 years in advance.
    5. Same applies to CBSE who have the freedom to fix the rule of the game for all central assisted institutes.
    6. All Private institutes (recognized by AICTE) MUST also adopt these 3 tests (in any combination) as basis of their admission. They are free to decide cut-off and weightage for either or both Main and Advanced tests. However, this should be fixed 2 years in advance. If the institute is new, criteria should be published before results for Mains and Board Exams are published for that year.
    7. A joint counseling of all above (IIT, Central/State Engineering colleges, Private institutes) should be done online in a single system. Technically, this is not impossible even-if different board/institute can have different ranks for a single student (admission to one institute will be governed by rank relevant to it only). This will be one-time exercise for admission.
    8. (WISH-LIST) In fact, it is not impossible to have a joint counseling for both Engineering and Medical admissions for all institutes in the country. After all, a student is finally going to study at one place only. For medicals, instead of PCM, PCB (Ph-Chem-Biology) score to be taken for percentile calculation in board exam. In Mains, Math and Biology papers can be kept separate for student to pick one or both.
    9. This model can also be extended (may be under a different system) to all admissions for all other degree colleges in a State as well to check malpractices and political interference in admission to degree courses.
