Board Exams May Get 50 Weightage In Admissions Based On Neet Jee
Economic Times
Future medical and engineering admissions in India might see board exam scores carrying 50% weightage, a significant shift from the current entrance-exam-dominated system.
This move, aimed at reducing the pressure of single high-stakes tests and addressing concerns over exam irregularities, is being considered by a government committee.
At present, medical and engineering admissions are based on entrance test scores and candidates are required to score a qualifying percentage in board exams to be eligible for the entrance exams.
