Tips by IIT professors to crack new JEE to get admission into IITs
In 2013 for admission to the undergraduate programmes of
the IITs students have to give a two stage exam, JEE Main and JEE
Advanced. JEE Main offline will be held on 7th April. CBSE
will conduct JEE Main in both online and offline mode. JEE Advanced will
be conducted on June 2, 2013, in offline mode.
JEE Advanced will be taken just by the top 1.5 lakh students (from all categories) of JEE (Main). So IIT aspirants will face a two-tier test – JEE (Main) and JEE (Advanced). JEE (Advanced) 2013 will have two objective type papers, each of three-hour duration. Each paper will consist of questions from physics, chemistry and math. Question papers will be in both English and Hindi. Till 2012, an aspirant got the coveted IIT seat based on his All India Rank (AIR). But in 2013, apart from his AIR rank, a candidate needs to be in the top 20 percentile or scoring 75% whichever is minimum of the qualifying candidates of his Class 12 (other equivalent) boards to secure a seat in the IITs.
According to few IIT professors it’s right time for students to start their preparation. “It’s a two-stage exam. Students should not treat this as any other exam. Till now, students are used to writing the AIEEE. Paper I of JEE (Main) broadly seems to be on the AIEEE pattern. It’s very essential for candidates to get their basics right because only the top 1.5 lakh students will be allowed to write the JEE (Advanced),” says Tarun Kant, head, department of civil engineering, IIT Bombay.
According to Siddhartha Das, professor, department of metallurgical and materials engineering, IIT Kharagpur, “The best way to crack the new format is by preparing for the Class 12 exams seriously. If your fundamentals are in place and if you have studied for your board exams well, you will find it easier to crack it. Preparing for multiple choice questions also helps.”
