New Eligibility criteria JEE-2015:
The entry norms has been relaxed by the Ministry of Human Resource Development and IIT council for the admission in the Indian Institute of Technologies (IITs). The new criteria will pave the way for more & more students to participate in the counselling from next year.
Until now, the students in the top 20 percentile of Class XII marks alone were eligible to participate in the counselling procedure of the JEE, this sometimes is very depressing for the students who scored well in the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE), but denied for the admission in IITs as they are failed to make it to the top 20 percentile. Under the new rules, the candidates who will score more than 75 per cent marks in Class XII will also be eligible to participate in the JEE counselling.
The IIT Council has decided that in addition to the 20 percentile condition, the authorities will also consider the marks secured formula. Last year 200 students with top scores in JEE MAIN & Advanced could not be able to take admissions in the top notch institutions due the previous rule.
Candidates in the General/Other Backward Class/Non Creamy Layer category have to secure 75% marks in class 12th; students under the SC/ST/disabled category have to secure 70% marks in class 12th to participate in counselling as well as to take admission in the IITs.
