Students who appeared for IIT JEE (Advanced) exam on Sunday were surprised to find that paper I had no negative marking. However, many complained that multiple answer multiple choice questions (MAMCQ) were a bit tough.
The results to be declared on June 19 will decide the eligibility for admissions to any of the 16 IITs and Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad. "
The paper 1 was lengthy and paper 2 had tough questions. But we were surprised to know that there was no negative marking for either the MAMCQs or the integer type questions in paper 1," said Durgesh Mangeshkar, director of IITian's Prashikshan Kendra. "Cut off for the top 6,000 rank may be around 165/360 marksThere were no surprises in the paper except that only 10% weightage was given to Inorganic Chemistry and almost 40% weightage was given to calculus in Maths," he added.
"This time the examination was difficult as compared to previous year's.
The Physics question paper was lengthy whereas Chemistry paper had questions based on uncommon factual questions. Though students have done well, in general they found it difficult. This year the cut off will be less .
"In MAMCQs, if a student marks two right answers and doesn't mark the third one, he will get a zero. The only respite is that there is no negative marking .
From about 35,000 students who took the JEE Mains exam, about 500 from the city had qualified for JEE Advanced. The results will be declared on June 19.
