No more entrance exam
June 7th, 2005 by Anand
Tamilnadu government has decided to cancel the profession entrance exams from this year, their has been a kind of argument brewing with the student & family bodies of state board educated versus central board educated.
As the government has decided to cancel the exam giving a fair chance to the students coming from the rural areas to compete in the world of professional studies, seems like the government has missed out the no. of central board schools running in the state.
Now the question is how should the students who took the CBSE exam be evaluated for professional course as the CBSE course is considered to be tougher than the state board.
One of my cousins who took the plus 12 exams through CBSE has scored a decent mark but considered to the marks scored by the state-board counterparts she was going to lose the battle in professional courses admissions.
Her goals of getting into the professional course seem to getting slim, because of this entrance exam. Her family decided to contact some of the deemed universities and seems that each university has set their own rule of considering students from Central board, like adding up 10% over her PCM (physics/chemistry/math) cut-off giving her a fair chance to get admissions.
Lucky, she has been admitted to a 5-year B.Arch course in one of the deemed universities in Chennai. Best wishes to her future !!!
