Hail Bannerghatta

that day we were coming from Bangalore Trade Center… bad headache… hot afternoon.. and the great Bannerghatta Road…
after that boring Sun Tech Days in Bangalore Trade Center we were eager to come home and have that afternoon nap… but who knew that we would be right in the center of a great traffic jam…
we took the shortest route.. but we found ourselves as creators of the messiest traffic jam in my life.. fine we were at the middle of the traffic jam.. heavily loaded trucks were right touching our car bumper and our great ford ikon was shyly looking at the curves of one chevys..
if this was not enough for us.. we had this tata sumo right blocking our right exit.. and one big queue of those chotu-motu vehicles right lined behind it.
.. what to do.. no one was ready to come out of their cars.. and finally after a long silence.. i had to come out and act like a traffic police.. and there u see ppl following me:) somehow i managed to make proper traffic flow. and finally we came back to our place taking almost 1 hour more than the usual..
thats why “HAIL Bannerghatta”

Original Big 5 IITs

IIT-JEE likely to be made easier

The IIT JEE-2006 may be easier to crack. The Union ministry of human resources development feels the examination is too tough, causes immense stress to candidates, and needs to be toned down immediately. Sources said the first change could be that questions would be set only from the Plus-II syllabus.

“The ministry feels that many of the IITJEE questions are based on topics that are not taught in Plus-II, and are in fact of a far higher standard. This forces candidates to start preparing at least three years in advance — from Class IX. They overload themselves and this leads to depression, which sometimes ends in suicide,” IITKharagpur director S.K. Dubey told. The changes recommended could be brought in from IIT-JEE 2006.

The Centre believes that tougher syllabus forces aspirants to neglect their board exams. They also end up spending a lot on coaching classes that claim to be tailormade for the entrance exam. So, the committee is singling out topics not taught in Plus-II anywhere in the country. These will probably be deleted.

The committee will also take a fresh look at the present two-tier exam system — where candidates are given objective-type questions in the prelims and subjective ones in the finals — and see whether it should be replaced with a single-entry system.

In the finals, candidates have to take three papers — physics, chemistry and mathematics — through gruelling six hours on a single day. The HRD ministry believes this is too taxing and has asked the committee to work out a better “fatigue and rest cycle”.

The committee will also analyse the questions of IITJEE vis-a-vis that of AIEEE and the other engineering entrance examinations conducted by various states to see if there is too much of a gap in the standard.

Changes in the offing

• Questions to be limited to +2 syllabus; currently they are of higher standard
• Officials Panel will study if current 2-tier system – objective-type questions in prelims, subjective in finals – should be replaced with uniform system
• Panel to work out better schedule; currently candidates take physics, chemistry, maths exams in 6 hrs in 1 day in finals
