The All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) 2011 was deferred by a few hours on Sunday (1st May 2011) after the Uttar Pradesh STF clued-up the CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education) that the question paper of the prestigious entrance exam had been leaked. Uttar Pradesh Special DGP (Law and Order) Brij Lal informed the media that the leaked question paper was recovered by STF officials from Lucknow. It was being sold for up to Rs 6 lakhs in the market as per the DGP of UP. AIEEE 2011 will be held on 11th May 2011 for those candidates appearing for AFMC exam to be held on 1st May 2011.
The AIEEE 2011 exam is for admission to BE/ B.Tech. / B.Arch / B. Planning courses and is held in two parts. The first paper is intended for Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) courses and the second paper is for Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch). The Central Board of Secondary Examination (CBSE) has postponed the first part to 12 noon from the scheduled 9.30 AM. The second part of the AIEEE exam will be held from 4.00 pm to 7.00 pm on 1st May 2011.
CBSE chairman Vineet Joshi told the media that those candidates who are also appearing for the equally prestigious Armed Forces Medical College (AFMC) examination for MBBS admission will be permitted to appear for the AIEEE on May 8th 2011. The May 8th exam will be held at the same examination centre and the same admit card will be valid for AIEEE 2011 on 8th May. The exam centers which are holding both the AIEEE as well as AFMC exams on 1st May can also choose to hold the AIEEE exam on May 8, 2011 at 9.30 am. With the latest developments, the AFMC exam has also been postponed to 4.30 pm from 2-30 PM. There seems to be a Bihar and Kanpur link has been there for the leak of AIEEE 2011 question paper. About 12 lakh students will be appearing for for AIEEE 2011 across the country at over 1,600 centres in more than 80 cities.
It is the first time that the AIEEE is being held in the online mode across the country. It is observed that about one lakh candidates from 20 cities will be taking the examination online. Admission to thousands of engineering seats in 30 National Institutes of Technology and about 150 engineering colleges throughout the country will be through AIEEE exam.

ReplyDeletemaybe wen so many mails 4 d same prob will reach them, they'll take sum proper action
Re examination of AIEEE for some candidates will be discrimination for those who appeared on 1st May. At Bhubaneswar there was thunder storm in the evening and power cuts. Those who appeared for B.Arch. had to struggle with day-long fatigue, bad weather, bad light while sitting for exam till 7 PM (unlike western part of India, in East it is dark at 5.30. On 1st May at Bhubaneswar it was dark even earlier due to the thunder storm and rain.). Keeping these in mind the AIEEE should be held again for all concerned.
ReplyDeleteThough it was earlier mentioned that the reschedule of exam will be on 8th May, it was adjusted to 11th May 2011 as OJEE 2011 and ComedK 2011 were scheduled to held on 8th May.
