Single Entrance Exam for IITs to be held in two parts

With a view to reducing the burden, in terms of time, finances and the stress caused in scheduling and preparing for multiple entranceexaminations, on both, the students and parents, the Council of Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) had, in its meeting on 14.09.2011, endorsed 'in-principle' the proposal of a Common Entrance Examination for admission to undergraduate programmes in Engineering.
Based on the discussions held amongst the various stakeholders, including those from the IIT system, it has been decided to hold a Joint Entrance Examination from the year 2013 for admission to the undergraduate programmes in engineering in two parts, JEE-MAIN and JEE-ADVANCED. 
Only the top 1,50,000 candidates (including all categories) based on the performance in JEE-MAIN will qualify to appear in the JEE Advanced examination. Admission to IITs will be based only on category-wise All Indian Rank (AIR) in JEE-ADVANCED, subject to condition that such candidates are in the top 20 percentile of successfulcandidates in Class XII examination conducted by their Boards in applicable categories. 
Admission to NITs will be based on 40% weightage for performance in Class XII Board marks normalized on percentile basis and the remainder 60% weightage would be given for performance in JEE-MAIN and a combined AIR would be decided accordingly.

  1. To explicate the temporal sequence between downside gambling, gambling codecs, and gambling involvement, longitudinal information is required. Without longitudinal information, we're unable discover out} whether participating in a gambling format increases the chance of experiencing a gambling downside or if those that already have a gambling downside 코인카지노 are interested in particular gambling codecs. In addition, longitudinal information is needed to understand whether high involvement is a precursor to or simply a symptom of downside gambling. This information also doesn't distinguish gambling codecs based mostly on whether such participation was done at a brick and mortar venue or on-line. These completely different types of entry might mediate the relationship between gambling format and downside gambling. In addition, regardless of using two large datasets, some categorization groupings were fairly small leading to estimates that include large confidence intervals.
