PUNE: Nearly 47,000 students from Pune district will appear for the 11th all India engineering entrance exam (AIEEE) 2012 offline papers, which are to be held on April 29.
"There are total 78 examination centres in and around Pune where the offline exam will be held," Jayashree Venkatraman, AIEEE coordinator for the city and principal of the DAV Public School, Aundh, told TOI on Friday. "Total 47,000 students from the district have enrolled for the exam," she said.
Country-wide, close to 11 lakh aspirants are expected to appear for the exam that is regarded as the gateway to 30 national institutes of technology (NITs) besides five Indian institutes of information technology (IITs), central- and state-funded institutions and self-financed deemed universities and other institutions.
In Maharashtra, 15% seats at engineering colleges are reserved for the AIEEE qualified students. Pune is one of the five cities in the state and total 63 cities in the country where the offline exam will be conducted simultaneously by the Central Board of Secondary Education ( CBSE).
The AIEEE online paper window will open from May 7 till May 26 at 22 select cities, including Mumbai and Nagpur in Maharashtra. Pune does not figures among the cities for the online exam. The results are to be declared on or before June 15.
Last year, over 10.53 lakh students had appeared for the AIEEE that was held at 1,685 centres located in 86 cities. A total of 18,411 seats for BE/B.Tech & 930 seats for B.Arch/B.Planning at the NITs; IIITs and centrally-funded institutions besides 15,900 seats of BE/B.Tech & 140 Seats for B.Arch/B.Planning at self-financed institutions and universities were available for admission.
A centralized online counselling had been organized for filling up the all India seats by the Central Counselling Board (CCB). Apart from the NITs and IIITs, 13 central- and state-funded institutions and 23 self-financed institutions/universities had participated in the CCB seat allotment process.
This year many other institutions are expected to admit students through AIEEE. A decision in this regard will be taken by the CCB, which will be constituted by HRD ministry, and a list of tentative institutions joining the CCB will be placed on the website: www.ccb.nic.in.
The entrance examination features two papers - Paper-I consisting of three parts of physics, chemistry and mathematics of equal weightage with objective type questions for B.E/B.Tech courses and Paper-II consisting of mathematics, aptitude test and drawing for B.Arch and B.Planning. The aptitude test is designed to evaluate candidate's perception, imagination, observation, creativity and architectural awareness.
There will be objective type questions with four options having single correct answer. For each incorrect response, one fourth (1/4) of the total marks allotted to the question would be deducted. No deduction from the total score will, however, be made if no response is indicated for an item in the answer sheet. More than one answer indicated against a question will be deemed as incorrect response and will be negatively marked.
