The joint entrance examination (JEE) for admission to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) is likely to become history from 2013 as the central government Tuesday decided to work on a common entrance test for all government engineering colleges.
'By 2013, we should have in place a common system for common admission into professional institutions in the country,' Human Resource Development Minister Kapil Sibal said Tuesday after meeting at least 20 school education boards from across the country.
Explaining the situation, HRD ministry joint secretary S.C. Khuntia said: 'We will work for a common entrance test for every stream. One examination for all engineering institutions, which means IITs will also follow it.'
'In that parameter, there should not be any separate IIT entrance,' Khuntia told IANS. 'Lets see, we have to work in that direction.'
'As per the score of the entrance, selection will be made. Let's say, the top rankers may go to IITs, the second bests will go to institutions which are a step below the IITs...so on,' Khuntia elaborated. 'The system will benefit the students most.'
After the meeting with school boards, Sibal said: 'We will be working towards a single entrance examination in 2013. We are setting up a task force for that.'
Explaining the situation, the minister said there will be single entrance for each stream. For example, admission to all medical courses may take place through one entrance examination and all engineering admissions through another common entrance.
Sibal said the task force would decide how to go about it and look into issues like the weightage the Class 12 board examination result will have in the admission procedure.

basically jee is created to bridge a gap between memorizing and understanding concepts.Usually people who understand won't know to memorize.They suck at memorizing.India is expected to produce the most number of quality engineers in a year.But for this to happen china is in the way.Jee plays a crucial part in this.If this is undertaken then india is also going to lose this opportunity
this system would suck it would losen the quality of iitians for which they were known for and for which they were known world wide
kapil sibal has gone crook at least jee should not be the victim of this dicesion
kapil sibal has gone bonkers ,, he thinks that changing every aspect of indian educational system he will be able to get more votes ,,,, such a mofo this will totally degrade the quality of engineers in india ........ i just hope some courageous iitian stands up and slaps him across his face
why only IIT JEE coaching Mr Sibal.. what about the coaching for other entrance exams like AIPMT, CPT, IAS, CAT and many others...and most importantly the tution centre at the school level... there is no quality education in schools because of which the coaching is developed... moreover schools are not more than a business centres now... courtsey India Govt. ...
Also who allowed you to ruin the strong education system of India..
How will you make quality engineers and scientists by aptitude tests and no knowledge of physics, chemistry and Math? Either you have gone out of your mind coz of all the corruption charges on UPA government or bribed by someone to destroy education system.. This is for sure targeted and not at all with intentions for the upliftment of the education...
Please let someone else, who have some knowledge and experience to run the ministry, take over. You are simply of no use
