AIEEE Examination- Your Gateway to Engineering

Conducted by the reputed CBSE board, Department of Secondary and Higher Education, Ministry of Human Resource Development, All India Engineering /Pharmacy/ Architecture Entrance Examination (AIEEE) is carried out with the combined efforts of CBSE and Govt. of India for direct admission of the most deserving candidates in engineering, pharmacy and architecture in Central Universities, National Institutes of Technology, Deemed Universities and Institutions in varied states/ Union Territories other than those covered by JEE or the state level entrance exams for paid or the unpaid seats on the basis of the score or rank of the aspirant.

AIEEE is definitely one of the most prestigious engineering entrances examinations in India and is the most prestigious engineering entrance examination of India and is also considered as the first step towards prominent central government funded institutes such as NITs, IIT Gwalior, Deemed Universities and many more. The entrance in not only about admission in various funded institutes of engineering, the entrance is also meant for admission in prestigious colleges of Architecture, Planning and Pharmacy held through AIEEE itself.

Those aspirants who have passed 10+2 or equivalent exam or are appearing for the qualifying examination are considered for the provision admission in the degree course. Those who are aspiring to appear in AIEEE, have to pass their 10+2 with a minimum of 50% marks in Physics and Mathematics. Additionally, those who are aspiring architects are required to pass their 10+2 with Mathematics with a minimum of 50% as a compulsory subject. Options are available as Chemistry, Computer Science, Bio-Technology or Biology.

After passing the entrance examination, students are enrolled into various degree courses offered by NITs, Deemed Universities and Institutions in the States/Union Territories, Central government Universities not including those coming under the JEE or the State Level Entrance Examination.

Technical Education in India

The history of inculcating formal technical education in India started in the 19th century although it got momentum in 20th century with the onset of Constitution of Technical Education Committee of Central Advisory Board of Education (CABE). After India achieved Independence in the year 1947, the head-start of technical education emerged as a major concern for the Indian Government in order to face upcoming challenges and bring the country ahead.

The established the Indian Institutes of Technology, Indian Institutes of Management and Indian Institutes of Science were a vital step in the development of technical education in the Indian subcontinent. The ability of these institutions to produce competent and hard core intelligent scientists and engineers had managed to change the outlook of Indian on the global front. India was earlier known for yoga, meditation and holy places, but now it is reckoned for computer engineers.

Therefore, in order to maintain the standard of technical education all across the country, a statutory authority namely- The All India Council for Technical Education was set up in 1945. AICTE is renowned for planning, formulating and sustaining similar standards through accreditation, funding in particular colleges, monitoring and evaluation and awards thereby ascertaining coordination in management of technical education in India.

The main objective of these authorities is to ensure that all the admission procedures, selection criteria, entrance examination and information regarding allied preparation material are carried out appropriately all across the country. Under the term ‘Technical’, there comes a number of courses which include degree and diploma courses in Engineering, Master degree Courses in Engineering, Master of Computer Application (MCA), Master of Business Administration (MBA), Pharmacy Courses, Courses in Architecture and Applied Arts and Hotel Management and Catering Technology Courses.

Indian Institute of Technology(IIT), Joint Entrance Examination(JEE)

The Indian Institute of Technology Joint Entrance Examination (popularly known as IIT-JEE or just JEE) is an annual college entrance examination in India. A total of nine colleges use JEE as a sole criterion for admission to their undergraduate programs. The nine colleges include the seven Indian Institutes of Technology, IT-BHU Varanasi, and ISM Dhanbad. This year onwards, newly established institutions such as Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISERs) at Kolkata, Pune & Mohali, Indian Institute of Space Technology (IIST)and Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology,raebarely[rgipt] are also admitting students through the JEE (Extended Merit List) It is conducted by the various IITs by a policy of rotation.

Eligibility:

  1. Only Students who secure first class (60%) or equivalent in the plus two examination will be eligible for admission to the IITs. However there will be a relaxation of 5% for SC/ST students.
  2. Unlike the present two tier examination (screening and mains), JEE will be a single objective type examination, which could include short write-ups on various topics followed by objective questions based on write-ups.
  3. The number of attempts has also been brought down to two. Students would be allowed to take the JEE in the year they pass the 12th standard examination and the following year only.

Programs:

* B.Tech. 4 Years

* B. Pharm. 4 Years

* B. Design 4 years

* B. Arch. 5 years

* M.Sc. Integrated 5 years

* M.Tech. Integrated 5 years

* M.Tech. Dual Degree 5 Years

Reservations:

SC/ST Candidates

For candidates belonging to the SC and ST categories, respectively 15% and 7.5% seats are reserved in each program. Candidates belonging to these categories are admitted on the basis of relaxed criteria (compared to the general (GE) category candidates). In case all the reserved seats are not filled, a limited number of candidates are admitted to a Preparatory Course of one-year duration on the basis of a further relaxation of the qualifying criteria. This course attempts to prepare the students in Physics, Mathematics, and Chemistry. On successful completion of the course, the students will be offered direct admission to the undergraduate programs in July 2009 against the unfilled reserved seats for JEE-2008.

SC and ST candidates will be required to produce the original caste/tribe certificate issued by a competent authority in the prescribed format (given in Appendix–II). These documents must be produced at the time of counselling, failing which they will not be considered for admission. Seats remaining vacant in these categories shall not be filled by candidates belonging to any other category.

Persons with Disability (PD)

For PD (including leprosy-cured) candidates, who are otherwise fit to pursue the course, and qualify JEE with relaxed norms relevant to this category, 3% seats are reserved as specified by the Government of India. For any category of disability (viz., locomotor, visual, speech, and/or hearing), benefit would be given to those candidates who have at least 40% permanent physical impairment in relation to a body part / system / extremity / extremities / whole body, etc.
The candidates in this category will be required to be certified by a Medical Board. The Medical Board will decide the following:

  • whether the candidate qualifies for the benefits under this category, and
  • if the disability is likely to interfere in his/her studies.

The Medical Board duly constituted for this purpose shall meet at the time of counselling at IIT Delhi on June 17, 2008. Candidates, who are not certified by the Medical Board as belonging to the PD category, will not be counselled under this category. The decision of the Medical Board shall be final.

Note: Reservation for OBC candidates, if any, would be communicated as and when the Government order for the same is issued.

Engineering in India

Admission to the Engineering course in India demands 10+2 qualification. One is supposed to write entrance examination conducted at all India level to get entry to the premier institutes of India.

There are seven Indian Institute of Technologies (IITs) viz, Bombay, Delhi, Guwahati, Kanpur, Kharagpur,

Madras and Roorkee, 20 National Institute of Technologies (NITs), couple of IIITs and several private institutes are engaged in the task of grooming engineers.The institutions in India which have created istinguished niche among world academia are.

IITs in India

Development of IITs

* The foundation for the IITs in India was laid in 1946 by the Executive Council of Viceroy, Sir Jogendra Singh.

* The main aim was to develop a technical structure to aid the industrial development in the country.

* On May 1950, the first Indian Institute of Technology was set up in Kharagpur.

* By 1961 four more such institutes were established in Mumbai, Kanpur, Chennai and Delhi.

* IIT Guwahati was established in 1994.

* In 2001, University of Roorkee was granted IIT status. This formed the seventh campus of the IITs in India.

IIT Entrance Test

(A) Undergraduate Courses:

While IIT JEE is the entrance examination for getting admitted to any of the bachelor degree courses, for B.Des and B Arch separate aptitude tests have to be given along with IIT-JEE.

(B)Postgraduate Courses: For studying Postgraduate courses in IITs, one needs to appear in the appropriate entrance exam.

These entrance exams are -

* GATE (M. Tech)

* CEED (M.Des)

* JAM (Msc)

Present Scenario in Indian engineering education

About 2.3 lakh students graduated in engineering in 2006, while only 20,000 master degrees and 1,000 Ph.Ds were awarded that year, according to the study 'Engineering Education in India', conducted by two professors of IIT Bombay.

Doctorate degrees in engineering are less than one per cent of graduate engineering degrees. The percentage of is much higher for most of the other countries like the United States (9 per cent), Britain (10 per cent) and Germany (8 per cent).

Utilization Of Natural Laws Through Engineering Technology

Engineering is the utilization of natural laws, application of scientific and mathematical principles which results in practical ends like machines, processes, design and manufacturing.

With the rapid advancement of technology, this vertical of science is also getting comprised of various divisions and subdivisions. There are many fields of engineering which are gaining prominence and are developing with a non-ceasing point, like:

Aerospace Engineering

Chemical Engineering

Civil Engineering

Electrical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering

Computer Engineering

Software Engineering

Nanotechnology

Molecular engineering

With increased number of branches of engineering, companies where job prospects are high are also increasing. There is need of engineers in each industry. In case of Computer Engineering, numbers of IT companies as well as their verticals is spreading constantly and are working as a stair for the engineers to reach the destiny of success quickly.

To meet the required demand of increased number of companies, numbers of engineering colleges are also increasing, like affiliation of more than 4 or 5 colleges a common University so that admissions to high number of students should be carried easily. This is all because of increase in technology, technological requirements etc.

IIT-JEE Examination Pattern

IIT-JEE Test Pattern Analysis, Key and Solutions


Paper 1 of IIT-JEE 2008 consisted of 69 questions with total marks of 246.


The difficulty level of the three subjects in the decreasing order was Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry.


The questions in Mathematics required long steps to finally arrive at the answer. The difficulty was compounded because of the larger than usual share of questions (28%) in Coordinate Geometry that required – again – larger than usual steps to solve. The Comprehension Type questions were based on the application side of Complex Numbers, Integral Calculus and Coordinate Geometry. System of Equations commanded three Assertion Reasoning Type Questions.



In Physics, questions were almost uniformly distributed among all areas other than Electrostatics, EMI and AC. The easiest type of questions in Paper 1 were the Assertion-Reasoning type as none of them involved calculations by only clarity of the concepts being discussed. 12 Marks could be easily scored in this area. From the Straight Answer type questions, three were easily solvable. The Linked Comprehension type questions posed maximum difficulty because of the lengthy expressions and interconnectivity. The representation of Modern Physics was relatively higher in Paper 1 when compared to the importance given to the topic in the previous years.



The questions in Physical Chemistry – the ones students usually pick up first to solve – were tougher than usual. Some of the questions in the numericals were presented with a twist with the obvious intention of confusing the students. Instead of moles if the student were to take equivalents, the answer would be wrong, but was present among the choices.

But relatively Chemistry was the consolation part among the three Papers. States of Matter, Dilute Solutions, Kinetics, and Nuclear Chemistry were adequately represented. Atomic Structure, Electrochemistry, Solid State were not among the questions here. So the students would look forward to these in Paper 2 as these are important areas.

Test Pattern Analysis, Key and Solutions

Pa
per 2 of IIT-JEE 2008 consisted of 66 questions with total marks of 243

The difficulty level of the three subjects in Paper 2 in the decreasing order was Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry

The concepts of EMI and AC were expected to appear in Paper 2, but did not show up in any question. In Paper 2 also Assertion Reasoning type questions followed by the Straight Objective type questions were the ones to go after for faster scoring.

12 and 15 marks respectively were definitely scorable from these two sections. The Linked Comprehension questions posed good challenge for the students as it involved more than one concept. Among the three questions in matrix-match type, one was definitely solvable completely under exam conditions and another was definitely a huge task to solve. The general level of difficulty of both the papers was at par. The strong focus is again on the strong grip on the concepts rather than on numerical problem solving

Mathematics part of Paper 2 gave equal importance to Algebra, Vectors, 3D and Matrices, Coordinate Geometry, Differential Calculus and Integral Calculus. The share of Trigonometry was very less. Questions involving System of Equations were linked with 3 D Geometry. One Matrix-Match type question involved concepts from more than one area. Extremum, Symmetricity of Matrices, Logarithm and Trigonometric Equations all found presence in one question worth 6 marks. A lot of importance has been given to geometrical interpretations. Integral Calculus had more representation this year compared to IIT-JEE 2007.

F Block elements that were not represented in Paper 1 were again conspicuous by its absence in Paper 2 as well. In Chemistry, all the important areas of Physical Chemistry that were left out in Paper 1 found mention in Paper 2 except some basic concepts of Physical Chemistry. In one of the questions relating to Dilute solutions a condition was given as "mixture of two liquids where one non-volatile" but this condition is unrealistic but had to be considered while considering the Linked Comprehension type. Here again, if a student were to go without taking care of the condition the answer arrived was mentioned among the choices - a very clear attempt at confusing the student.

Here, we present the distribution of marks among various topics within the subject. The following tables and pie-charts will help you to understand the relative importance of the various subject areas in this years’ IIT-JEE.



Also we are presenting an overall EMD Analysis – Easy, Medium, Difficult Analysis. The definitions of Easy, Medium and Difficult are given below. You will find that even if you were not able to solve some of Difficult Questions, it would still leave you enough scope to score a net score to get a very good All India Rank.



EASY:- Easy Questions are defined as those questions that can be answered by a student who knows the concept under question. It is a direct application of the concept. A student is expected to have attempted all the EASY Category Questions.



MEDIUM:- Medium Difficulty Questions are those questions that may involve more than one concept. A well-prepared student should be able to identify at least 75% of these and solve them correctly



DIFFICULT:- Difficult Questions are those Questions are those will definitely involve multiple concepts and are tricky. The students may be led to think away from the ideal method of problem solving. It will require good effort even from the well-prepared student to identify the difficult ones and categorize them accordingly.

Experience of an JEE aspirant

Well people i gave JEE-2008 on 13th April 2008.

I will now describe my experience to u all so that it can help you tackel JEE better.

I will now rewind the clock to April 2006 when i joined Naryana IIT Academy for preparing for the D-Day in 2008.

I began taking classes at Narayana quite seriously in the process neglecting my school studies,but i was not able to do well anywhere niether at narayana nor at my school that was untill a major test took place at narayana and that was the time i started believing in myself that i can really crack JEE.But soon self beliefe turned into overconfidence and for nearly 3 months whatever was taught at narayana, I did not revise at home.

Result--->1.I did horribly in the second major test at Narayana.

2.I got an early wake up call.

I now realised that cracking JEE might not be that easy after all.I began to work seriously and thus came out with flying colours in the third test.

By the time the fourth test came I was in 12th standard and thus came a period of STRESS,TENSIONS because my performance at school dipped to horribly low levels which were unacceptable,but all these circumstances failed to deter me from giving it my all to JEE. I kept on working for JEE and my performance in my school exams kept dipping. Soon the pre-boards arrived and I left my JEE preparation aside for some time.I did OK in my pre-boards.

Come February 2008 and i started to prepare in the earnest for my Board Examinations and side by side giving some time to JEE. February passed of quite nicely since i was at home 24X7

and March came. The whole month of March went by with out me giving a single minute to JEE preparation.

Finally on the D-Day had arrived.The day i had been waiting for the past 2 years had arrived.

Now i will reveal 1 thing here I HATED MATHS and thus it was my weak point in JEE.



Soon we were seated in the examination halls and were about to write the so called "Toughest Exam on Earth".

The clock started ticking and as soon as i opened the paper i was in for a shock.The first section was Maths and this is the point which i think was the turning point and made the difference b/w me qualifying JEE and loosing out by 9 marks.

I lost my cool as soon as i saw maths first because i had been adapted to Physics first then chemistry(My strongest of the three) and last abut here JEE had sprung up a surprise.

Suddenly the paper became so tough that i was on the verge of tears and had done just 2 questions in 45-50 mins. I had made a mistake here in my eagerness to do the paper i forgot that i should have turned to chemistry straight away rather than wasting my time with maths.But i was already rattled enough and after three hours i was sure it was the end of my dream.

The Second paper brought some respite and it went of well since i was mentally prepared for shocks and surprises. But the damage had been done right in the first paper.



Lessons to be learnt from my experience

1.Never EVER be overconfident about your chances at JEE and during the two years you prepare for it.

2.NEVER divert your attention from your school studies.School is equally important

3.NEVER leave any of your subject weak.It will drag you down.Give equal importance to all subjects.

4.BE prepared for shocks in JEE.Every year they will spring up a surprise and try to throw you off balance in the exam hall.


5.NEVER loose your cool.

6.Say to yourself "If I can't who will??"

i hope you like this jee Experience

IIT JEE Technical Enterance Examination Guide

JEE is an exam which requires a high level of perfection in all respects - particularly in memory, logic, speed, and quantitaive analysis. Such perfection requires constant practice. Here, I would like to provide tips which may help my friends clear this exam.


Disclaimer: Though I have got a good rank of 96, my beginning (from X) was pretty ordinary - so I expect this guide to help the majority of students. Also, since I'm not a qualified instructor, I can only give my personal point of view.


Books:


Maths - Any good book will do, just as long as it has thousands of problems (I'm serious). But here are some of the books I know and have used:


NCERT, Tata McGraw Hill, G. N. Berman, A. I. Prilepko, Hall & Knight, S. L. Loney.


Physics - Just three - NCERT, H.C. Verma and I. E. Irodov. If you want really challenging problems, try the Krotov.


Physical Chemistry - NCERT, P. Bahadur, N. Avasthi and V. K. Jaiswal


Organic Chemistry - This one has a huge list, but here are some good ones:


NCERT, Paula Bruice, Peter Sykes, I.L. Finar, Morrison and Boyd, M. S. Chouhan, etc.


Inorganic Chemistry - NCERT, J. D. Lee, N. Avasthi and V. K. Jaiswal, Vogel's Qualitative Analysis.


Dos and Don'ts


Dos:


1] Regular homework and studies. I mean, really regular, as in never-failed-to-complete-my-homework-on-time type regular.


2] Relaxation and timepass. Yeah. Really. All study and no play makes Jack a nut-case. But don't overdo it - 1 hour at the maximum per day.


3] Isolation. The more friends you have, the more possibility of you getting distracted. Keep a safe distance, avoid most parties and hangouts. The lesser, the better.


4] Taking tests. Join a test series, maybe two, or as many you want - I recommend FIITJEE. Constant tests help you practice and prepare your mind for the JEE pattern. If the tests are to be given at home, do them at the proper time in an isolated room.


5] Finish your syllabus by January, if you are a fresher. If you are dropping, do make sure you complete the syllabus.


6] Keep a positive attitude. Approach new topics with interest, not with an another-topic-to-mug attitude. Do some research on wikipedia, try to find applications in day-to-day life. This will help create interest in the topic and improve your understanding as an engineer.


7] Mental and physical exercises, like meditation and yoga. For further details, contact spideyunlimited.


AND FINALLY, THE MOST IMPORTANT:


8] Attend all lectures, as in perfect 100% attendance. Quite a no-brainer, this one.


Don'ts


1] Overstress - the deadliest killer is sighted often among JEE students.


2] Procrastinate. As in, put off tomorrow what you can do today.


3] Hang out and waste time.


4] Worry too much. This is a major problem I've seen. People worry so much about classes / test series/ correspondence / teachers / batches / quality / notes / books / college / friend / girlfriend / food / hostel / accomodation .. u get the point... If I were to say it bluntly - just shut up, open the book, and start doing the damn problems!!


5] Lose confidence, or be over confident. IF you lose confidence, go to the forums, we can help you. If you are over confident, just contact me Just joking... Remember that there may be (will be) students out there smarter than you. This applies even if you are the topper of any institute.


6] Sleep less / eat less. The body is like any machine, and needs proper rest. Regular sleep of atleast 7 hours is a must.


goIIT and JEE


This is quite a weird and dangerous combination, like a double-edged sword. Many students have asked me whether goIIT has helped me or inhibited my studies. In my case, goIIT was helpful. Stuck as I was in Kota with a cellphone connected to the net and no other means of entertainment, goIIT was my only source of entertainment (which was to solve problems). It helped me to get out of the rut of a particular chapter I was studying, and helped me remember chapters I had studied long ago. The questions and challenges kept me practicing constantly.


But that was because on my cell, I could not view pictures or videos, or participate in thread-games. Those who have a PC can easily be distracted by these relaxation avenues. Being an educational site, even parents don't mind children sitting on the PC all day long. My advice: stay away from them. Browse only the academic forums and the community shelf when it's study time. And yeah - don't browse any other non-academic websites.


Particular points to take note of:


1] In mechanics, many books / professors teach methods and shortcuts to solve certain "types" of problems. Sometimes, even terminologies are given to them! Like recently, I heard a term called "extra tension" which I have never heard before. My advice: stick to the basics. Choose the inertial/non-inertial frame, co-ordinate system, select the body, draw a FBD (include any pseudo forces if necessary), and resolve the forces. This formula never goes wrong.


2] In organic chemistry, always solve problems by GOC. Resort to guesswork / any other tricks only if all else fails.


3] In Inorganic Chemistry, learn till you reach your limit. Learn the colours of compounds, their reactions, as much as you can. They may seem to follow a pattern, but there are too many exceptions and it would be better to instead learn everything.


4] Since the paper is objective, learn all types of tricks and techniques to solve it. Accurate guesswork must be resorted to sometimes - but be prepared to lose 1 mark in negative marking. In certain cases, the question maybe derived from the answer eg. A question of indefinite integration with 4 options. (If the integral is difficult)


5] Although this is a matter of personal choice, try to study at dawn instead of late in the night. Go to sleep at 11:00, and wake up at 6:00. I find that I am able to study thrice as fast in the early morning than in the night.


6] A particular question is quite common - which coaching is the best? My personal opinion - Bansal. Other good ones are Resonance, Career Point, Narayana, FIITJEE, Brilliant, VMC, etc. Don't get scared of packing your bags off to Kota if you have to - if you get selected for IIT you'll most probably have to leave your city anyway!


7] Enrolling into a good correspondence course helps sometimes. I recommend Brilliant, for their immensly helpfull YG Files and their Mock-JEE tests.


8] I'm free to help you anytime - just nudge me!


All the best to my friends! May you succeed, and that this article contributes a little to that success.

IIT Career Planning

  • "Do what you like and the money will follow." If you work at something you like, you will be good at it, and the best people usually rise to the top. Don't do something just for the money unless you do not have any better options.



  • It is becoming common for a person to have more than one career in a lifetime. Engineers, computer scientists, and entrepreneurs may change the type of work they do as many as five times in a lifetime.


  • "When in doubt aim high." Always aim for the highest paid career that also has the most demanding educational requirements. If you try the hardest first, and decide it's too tough, or you just don't like it, at least you will have tried it. It's easy to move to a field with lower educational requirements. It's impossible to move up once you've started.



  • "Without a plan, you are like a bullet with no target." Without a career plan you will be blown off course by the slightest breeze. Without a good career plan experienced professionals can stall and stagnate and become targets for downsizing. Without a good career pan college students are likely to change majors, lose credits, drop out, or take too long to graduate. When times get tough, and the classes become hard, self doubt begins to creep in. Having a firm career direction will help keep the student on track during tough times.



  • Retirement is a thing of the past. We human beings have an intrinsic need to add value, to contribute, to be a part of something. That need doesn't stop at age 65. If you are over 50 years old you probably want to start planning for a career that will suit your needs after official retirement.


In broader outlooks, this only means that not getting into the IITs doesn't mean the end of your dreams. It just means that your goal might be a bit harder to reach since you dont have the paths frequently walked down.


Remember that your goal is not getting into IITs, but having a successful and fulfilling career. Instead of moping about and wondering whether or not you'll make it to the IITs, if you have even a bit of self-doubt creeping into your mind, stop now. Plan out your career. Research. Decide what you want to do with your life.... It is never too late to decide what you want to be.... And where you want to be.


This doesn't mean that you need to give up your dreams... It only means that you should be preplanned about what you want to achieve with regards to your career. Though some might say that your career planning actually starts after Graduation, you've decided it by the time you elected for a particular stream after your 10th grade. Always have a backup plan.


Hoping that this inspires the lot of you here poring upon articles to help you to actually chart out a major decision in life: Choosing, working towards and achieving what you expect from your career.....
