The online Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) went off without any glitches on Tuesday with almost all students logging in at 9 am in all the 206 centres in Hyderabad, Visakhapatnam and Vijayawada.
Like in the offline examination, which was held last Sunday, physics paper found to be tough when compared to last year, while chemistry and mathematics papers were proved to be relatively easy, students said. Four of the 30 questions in the physics section were lengthy with students saying they had to spend over 10 minutes solving them. "Such lengthy questions are, however, common in JEE," said a coaching centre expert.
There were no technical glitches reported in the examination. "Students were asked to report at the centre at 8.15 am and the login time was sharp 9 am. The examination went off smoothly without any automatic shutdowns this year," said Kondal Rao, coordinator for JEE, Narayana Group of Institutions.
Experts said the cut-off marks could be somewhere around 100 this year. "Those who score above 100 marks could get through to the JEE advanced examination which will be held on June 2," said Uma Shankar, coordinator of JEE, Sri Chaitanya Group of Institutions.
Students who wrote the online examination, a system introduced last year by CBSE, said they encountered no trouble while attempting the same. "In the online examination, only one question is given to students at a time. The best thing is not to waste time trying to solve questions which are too difficult and ambiguous," said M Ramakrishna, a student who wrote the examination in Vignan Jyothi Institute of Technology, Bachupally.
