A very big and shocking news is coming for millions of youth in India who dream of becoming doctors and engineers. Discussions have now intensified to completely change the existing pattern of the two biggest examinations for admission to medical and engineering colleges of the country – NEET and JEE. In the present system, the youth of the country leave school and spend years preparing for entrance exams only by relying on coaching centres.
Keeping in mind the vision of the National Education Policy (NEP), the country’s leading education experts are now considering a revolutionary model, which will make the evaluation of students more balanced and stress-free. In the process of college admission under this new proposal 50 percent weightage to 12th board exam And 50 percent weightage to entrance exam It is strongly recommended to give. If this model is implemented, then board exams will not be just a formality to pass, but will prove to be the biggest turning point in the career of the students.
What is the new 50-50 model of 50% school and 50% entrance?
The main objective of this new and modern model is that the years of ability and intelligence of any promising student should not be decided by just one day’s 3-hour examination. Instead, the student’s continuous academic performance for two years (11th and 12th) and school record should also get equal weightage in the final selection.
To understand in simple words, when the final merit list will be prepared for admission in medical (MBBS/BDS) or engineering (IIT/NIT) colleges, then 50% of 12th board marks (Normalized Score) And 50% of NEET/JEE score Total merit will be added together to form. With this system, the attendance of students in schools will increase, the level of school education will be strengthened and the excessive ‘coaching-dependent culture’ that is spreading in the country will be curbed.
This new formula will bring these 3 big changes in the lives of students
1. The status of board exams will increase, the game of dummy schools will end.
At present, most of the students of the country take admission in ‘dummy schools’ in class 11th and 12th just for the sake of name and their entire focus is on NEET-JEE coaching while staying in Kota or other cities. Students think that just getting passing marks in 12th is enough. But, if this 50-50 percent rule is approved, then this thinking of the students will completely change. They will have to sweat in schools throughout the year to score 95%+ marks even in the board exams to secure a seat in the best college.
2. Career will not be ruined by one day’s mistake or ill health.
It is often seen that many bright students work hard day and night throughout the year, but on the exam day, they are not able to perform well in the entrance exam due to excessive mental stress, sudden ill health or any other unexpected reason. Due to this, their entire year’s hard work goes waste and they become victims of depression. The biggest advantage of this new system will be that just one day’s examination will not decide the future of the student. Even if for some reason the entrance paper is a little bad, their excellent performance in 12th board will save their rank from falling.
3. Freedom from rote learning, both concept and theory will become stronger.
While on one hand, the style of answer writing, detailed explanation and basic understanding of the subject (Subjective Knowledge) are tested in board exams, on the other hand, in NEET and JEE, objective questions are required to be solved quickly and logical reasoning (Objective Aptitude). When both of them will get equal importance, students will be free from the tendency of shortcut tricks and memorization. They will study each subject with deep understanding (Conceptual Learning), which will not only strengthen their base but will also give them direct benefit in the future in higher education in college.
