The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has declared National Eligibility and Entrance Test NEET Result 2017 on cbseresults.nic.in and cbseneet.nic.in.

A total of 11, 38,890 students are said to have registered for NEET examination, conducted in 10 different languages across 1,921 exam centres this year. This includes 1,522 NRIs, 480 OCIs, 70 PIOs & 613 foreign students.

> On May 24, the Madurai bench of the Madras high court stayed any further process with regard to the NEET Result 2017 until June 7 responding to a joint written petition by a group of students from Madurai seeking cancellation of NEET 2017. Alleging the question paper set in English, Hindi and 10 other vernacular languages, including Tamil, was simpler in some states compared to others, the students sought cancellation of the examination and a re-examination.

> CBSE clarified that the decision to set papers in different languages was meant as a safety measure to avoid conducting the entire exam again if a particular paper leaked.

> While the Apex Court initially refrained from taking up an appeal by the CBSE, it later agreed when Additional Solicitor General Maninder Singh sought an urgent hearing. He expressed concern the delay in declaring the NEET results 2017 would cause anxiety to students and also defer the already fixed admissions schedule to undergraduate courses - MBBS and BDS - in government and private medical colleges.

> On Monday the vacation bench of SC -- Justice Prafulla C. Pant and Justice Deepak Gupta – stayed the HC order and also barred the high courts in the country from entertaining any petition on NEET results 2017 saying, "High courts shouldn't have interfered as it affects the schedule of the admission".

> SC will also examine if there is need for uniformity in English and vernacular question papers for NEET.
> This year a total of 11,38,890 students are reported to have appeared for NEET 2017 exams for 65,000 seats in MBBS and 25,000 seats in BDS. Of these students, 1,522 were non-resident Indians and 613 were foreign nationals.

From 2018, CBSE boards to begin a month early

Manash Pratim Gohain | TNN | Updated: Jun 21, 2017, 10.08 AM IST

Highlights

• From 2018, Class X and XII Board exams will take place in February instead of March.
• The process will no more drag over 45 days but will be completed within a month.
• Each year around 50,000 teachers are engaged in the evaluation process across 2,000 centres.
•  
• 

NEW DELHI: Come 2018, Class X and XII Board exams will take place in February instead of March as the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is planning to advance the cycle of exams and related activities from 2018-19 as a part of reforms focused on "error-free evaluation".

Moreover, the process will no more drag over 45 days but will be completed within a month. Currently, board exams begin March 1 and end around April 20.

CBSE chairman R K Chaturvedi said that this would also advance the date of declaration of results, which generally come around the third or fourth week of May. Chaturvedi told TOI, "The exam inations should start around February 15 and we are also planning to complete them within a month."

The early results, the board believes, will also help CBSE students with the undergraduate admission process. "Otherwise it has been a neckand-neck affair," said the chairperson.

The board's plan to advance the examinations is a part of the reforms in the evaluation process, which has come under the scanner due to glaring errors in the practice.

"By April, vacations begin and the experienced teachers are not available. Therefore, advancing evaluation to mid-March will ensure we have the best teachers checking the answer scripts. Otherwise, in April during vacations, schools offer us only temporary, ad-hoc and newly-appointed teachers for the evaluation exercise as experienced teachers don't oblige," said Chaturvedi.

According to the CBSE chairman, this will also offer the board some breathing room to work on results in its bid to make them error-free.

Under the new scheme, the CBSE is expecting the best and experienced teachers to come for evaluation and it is also going to conduct two training sessions for the evaluators.

All boards may soon have common core curriculum





New, Scientific Moderation Policy From 2018 

 

The Union human resource development ministry will curb the “malpractice of spiking of marks“ and implement a more scientific moderation policy from 2018.The Delhi high court had restrained the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) --primarily because of the timing of the latter's decision--from doing away with its moderation policy this year.

 

The HRD ministry has set up an inter-board working group comprising eight boards to work out details to stop moderation and upward revision of marks. “It could not hap pen as planned this year. But we are working things out for all boards from next year. In fact, all the boards have agreed to stop spiking marks from next year,“ an official said. Some boards had raised certain issues at the April 24, 2017 meeting about implementing moderation of marks this year, but they are in agreement about 2018, a senior HRD official said. According to the plan, all boards are to move towards adopting a common core curriculum, the grace marks policy is to be uploaded on websites, and marks and grades for extracurricular subjects are to be given separately .

The plan is also to share question papers (with CBSE) to bring about uniformity in assessment.
In April, 32 school education boards agreed not to moderate marks (for upward revision) this year, but the Delhi high court, acting on a petition, restrained CBSE from implementing it. Meanwhile, some boards have continued the practice of “inflating marks“.

However, the HRD ministry was encouraged by the fact that some boards, like those of Punjab and Karnataka, adhered to the consensus and made an effort. “We have seen that a few boards didn't moderate marks this year and the results reflected that. There are quite a few of them. So that's a start,“ the official said.

IBWG will deliberate regularly and work out a model for all boards to follow.
It has also been decided that CBSE will share question papers with states that use NCERT books “so that there is uniformity across all states in difficulty levels of questions and in the subsequent evaluations“.

“We have a year's time now to plan and initiate wider consultation as the states are already on board.This is crucial if we are to arrest variations in results, which affect students adversely, bring about uniformity in evaluation and improve the quality of education.However, more space should be given to the state boards and their concerns addressed,“ a member of the IBWG said.

NEET hopefuls to get 8 bonus marks, want 4 queries reviewed

Yogita Rao | Mumbai:





File Appeal Online Till 6pm Today 

 

Several medical aspirants are not content with the answer key for NEET-undergraduate released by the CBSE on Thursday and plan to challenge it.

 

While the CBSE's expert committee has already identified two questions in the physics section in the many of the sets to be ambiguous, students and coaching institutes claim answers for at least two more questions--one each in zoology and chemistry (see box) --given in the answer key , are incorrect. Many are also upset about the committee not acknowledging two questions asked on the physiology of `frogs' which was out of the scope of NEET syllabus. The paper has 180 questions, each carrying four marks.

The answer key was released after the Supreme Court lifted the stay on the assessment of NEET and announcement of results. In four question sets, two physics questions were marked as `multiplewrong options' in the answer key . “This will either mean that the NEET committee will omit these questions or give eight marks to all students as bonus,“ said a teacher from a coaching institute. A CBSE official said the expert committee reviews the questions before putting up the answer key . “They already identified two questions as ambiguous in the answer key ... How it will be accounted for during the assessment will be their prerogative,“ said the official.

Nishit Chhaya, an aspirant from Airoli, said it is unfair that students waste time in finding solutions to these ambiguous questions. “ Also in a competitive exam like NEET, every mark will make a difference in the rank. If there are ambiguities in a handful of questions, and if it is not addressed, students will end up losing these precious marks,“ he said. “To ask something which is not even there in the syllabus is unfair,“ said Chhaya.

Anurag Tiwari, the national academic head of a leading coaching institute, said the answers given by the board in one question each in zoology and chemistry were `incorrect'. “We have asked most of our students to challenge it,“ said Tiwari. Parents claim the board usually does not acknowledge these challenges. “They charge Rs 1,000 for challenging each question. But most times, they do not even acknowledge them,“ said Sudha Shenoy , a parent.

The board official said the challenges are reviewed by experts' committee and their decision is final. Students can challenge the questions till 6 pm on Friday . The Supreme Court has asked CBSE to announce NEET results by June 26.

Education dept to declare four cut-off lists for FYJC

Published & Updated : THE ASIAN AGE.  |  Jun 17, 2017

 

This will include bifocal and vocational courses and the number of seats available per course.

 

 

 The FYJC online addmissions started on Friday.

 

Mumbai: First year junior college (FYJC) online admissions for the new academic year being conducted by the state school education department started on Friday and will end on August 3. The education department has announced that it will declare four cut-off lists but if needed, colleges can put up more cut-off lists to fill vacant seats.

According to education department officials, subjects offered by every college will be listed next to its name. This will include bifocal and vocational courses and the number of seats available per course. This will help students make an informed choice, they said.

FYJC admissions will see students who have passed the secondary school certificate (SSC) exams on Tuesday competing with their counterparts from non-state boards such as CBSE and ICSE. While 3.8 lakh students have passed in the Mumbai division, only about 2 lakh seats are available across streams. The education department has subsequently increased number of seats in science and commerce streams in city colleges. The arts stream has seen no such increase. This year, 5,600 additional science seats and 3,000 additional commerce seats had been made available. The number of seats in the arts stream has dropped by 1,000 whereas nearly 6,000 seats are available for vocational courses.

Principal of Ruparel College, Tushar Desai, told The Asian Age, “Most of the students opt for arts as they want to pursue further careers by cracking competitive exams. In arts, they can spend maximum time studying while in science, there are practicals and journals. Albeit this year the results are fair enough but the education department has increased the number of seats so there shouldn’t be any problem. Besides, many students opt for a diploma as well.”

The total number of seats in the city has gone up from 2,78,282 last year to 2,92,090 this year, with 13,808 more seats up for grabs.

Admission timetable
 

• Submission of online forms: June 16-27 

• Normal list will be out: June 30 (till 5pm evening)

• First cut-off list will be out: July 7 (till 5pm evening)

• Admission date first cut-off: July 8 to 11

• Second cut-off list will be out: July 17 (till 5pm evening)

• Admission date for second cut-off list: July 18 to 19

• Third cut-off list (if needed): July 25 (till 5pm evening)

• Admission: July 26-27 (till 5pm evening)

• Fourth cut-off (if needed): August 1 (till 5pm evening)

• Admission: August 2 to 3 (till 5pm evening)

Inflated marks: Will CBSE, ICSE and state boards all get on the same page?

A common curriculum for select subjects is also on the cards.

The Union Ministry of Human Resource Development (HRD) will scrap the policy of moderation and adopt the National Centre for Educational Research and Training (NCERT) curriculum for select subjects among other measures to prevent inflated marksheets by 2018.

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE), National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) and all state Boards had agreed to implement these reforms in a meeting held on April 24.

The Centre has now set up a working group called the Inter Board Working Group (IBWG) to smoothen out the issues. It will be headed by the CBSE chairman and will contain members from the ICSE and the state boards of Gujarat, J&K, Karnataka, Telangana, Chhattisgarh, Kerala and Manipur.

"We have a year's time now to plan and initiate wider consultation as the states are already on board. This is crucial if we are to arrest variations in results which affect students adversely, bring about uniformity in an evaluation and improve the quality of education," an IBWG member said in a Times Of India report.

What is moderation?

Moderation was a practice introduced in 1992 to reduce the subjectivity that examiners bring to their marking. Some examiners are stricter while others liberal and this disrupted the uniformity in marking standards.
With moderation, the marks of Class 10 and 12 students were adjusted to maintain parity in the pass percentages between years, to factor the time constraints faced by the students in answering the paper and to make up for the differences in the difficulty levels of different sets of question papers in the same subject.

Why is moderation getting scrapped?

The moderation policy was being misused by most state boards to spike the marks, resulting the number of students that scored 90 percent and above to peak abnormally.
This trend was spotted by bloggers Debarghya Das and Prashant Bhattacharji, who looked at ICSE and CBSE results respectively. Bhattacharji plotted the 2013 results on a graph which showed a sudden spike in the number of students scoring 95 percent.

Why was this a bad thing?

The fallout of this liberal marking was that it caused the universities to set impossible cutoff rates, the 100 percent Delhi University cutoffs being the prime example. The HRD Ministry also suspected that state boards were spiking marks to give a competitive edge to the students for the admissions at the undergraduate level.

What next?

The decisions made by the IBWG also include marking extracurricular activities (for example, physical education), separately from a student’s overall academic performance. To bring about uniformity, all 32 boards have agreed to adopt the NCERT curriculum for subjects such as science and mathematics. The CBSE has also offered to share its question papers with state Boards to create papers of similar difficulty.

Will about 'grace marks'?

‘Grace marks’ and moderation are two separate practices. Grace marks are given to improve pass percentages. They will remain, on the condition that all boards will publish their grace marks policy on the official website, and print the grace marks awarded on the student’s marksheet.
