IIT-JEE easier than expected, say students
he IIT-JEE 2012 was conducted on Sunday in 1,067 centres across the country. More than five lakh candidates, including around 9,000 in Tamil Nadu, took the test to qualify for nearly 10,000 seats in 15 Indian Institutes of Technology, Institutes of Technology, Banaras Hindu University and the Indian School of Mines in Dhanbad. The exam was conducted in six cities in Tamil Nadu.
There were 10 versions of the IIT-JEE 2012 and students had to answer two papers. Both papers had 20 questions each in physics, chemistry and mathematics. "The first paper was fairly similar to last year's. However, some of the questions in the second paper were lengthier than the ones in the 2011 test," said Ajay Antony, course director at TIME, an institute that trains students for the exam.
The pattern of the papers was also slightly different from previous years, and students had to answer for fewer marks. "Usually the two papers are of 240 marks each. This time, the first paper was for 210 marks and the second for 198," a student said. "The 'matrix match' types of questions were also absent this time," he said. For the first time, students had to mark their answers with pen and could take a copy of the answer sheet home.
Students who took the IIT-JEE this year are likely to be the last batch to do so in this format as the human resource development ministry is likely to introduce the Indian Science Engineering Eligibility Test from the next academic year.
