Prof Bishnupada Mandal, the organizing chairperson, JEE (Advanced) 2023, IIT-Guwahati, said that this year was better with more students performing well and getting good scores.
“This year the number of questions with negative marking were lesser as compared to last year. Hence students were more confident to attempt more questions and performed better. The exam was of moderate to difficult level with blends. The expert committee, which decides on the question paper format, decided to have lesser questions with penalty this year, as they observed that students were not attempting many questions to remain cautious of losing out to negative marking, which could lower their overall score,” said Prof Mandal, who is also a member of the Joint Admission Board (JAB) as well as chairperson of Joint Implementation Committee (JIC) for IITs.
The process for Joint Seat Allocation (JoSAA) 2023 will start on June 19. Admission to the 23 IITs across the country is based on the results of JEE (Advanced) exam. Seven IITs organise the Advanced exam every year in rotation. The JoSAA is a joint counselling session for admission to IITs, NITs, IIITs and other government-funded engineering colleges in India.
While for IITs only the Advanced scores are considered, for admissions to NITs, IIITs and other government-funded institutions, JEE (Main) rank is the criteria. If a candidate qualifies for both Mains and Advanced, they can fill all the choices of institutes and depending on the course/discipline they have opted for which their rank is admissible they will be given admission. “Many students who do not get the choice of discipline in IITs go for NITs and other institutions,” said Prof Mandal.
