A majority of aspirants from Indore for the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) for admission in the country's centrally funded engineering institutes have opted for conventional pen and paper type offline examination.
This year the JEE (mains) will be held in two phases- offline and online.
Over 36,000 students from different parts of Madhya Pradesh will be in Indore to appear in the JEE offline examination next week.
The offline examination is scheduled on April 7 which will have a majority of students appearing in the entrance test in the 57 examination centers in Indore alone.
Sahodaya Indore cluster chairperson Sriniwas Rao said, "Students in Indore are less tech savvy. That is one of the reasons why maximum students have opted for the offline mode of examination".
The online JEE examination will be held for over two weeks in urban centers like Bhopal, Delhi between April 8 and 25.
Educationists believe that the trend of appearing in the online mode of entrance examination is yet to pick up pace. However, it will gain momentum in coming years.
JEE Indore coordinator and DPS principal Ashok Sachdeva said, "The online entrance examination is not very popular this year. A majority of students will write the exam in offline mode. But the choice is changing and in coming years, the online trend may come at par with offline ".
As per the revised norm of the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), students will have just one opportunity to get admission in IITs, NITs and other central institutes through the combined JEE (mains) examination.
There are only three offline city centers in Madhya Pradesh including Indore, Gwalior and Jabalpur.
