The JEE or in other words the Joint Entrance Examination is a very highly competitive examination conducted by the Indian Institutes of Technology for selection into the prestigious B.Tech program of the IITs. Now the future of the IIT -JEE is in question as the government is in favor of creating standardized entrance examinations along the lines of the SAT for all accredited colleges.
In India the high school students take the CBSE/ICSE/STATE BOARD examinations at a senior school level. For selection into colleges they write the JEE/AIEEE and a host of customized examinations. This puts unnecessary stress on the students who seek college education. The proposed reform is to standardize all examinations and make the students undergo only one aptitude test in addition to the high school examinations. A combined score will allocate a student to the respective universities.
