INTRODUCTION

All India Engineering/Architecture Entrance Examination 2008



Scheme of Examination

Entrance examination would consist of two papers i.e. 1st paper consisting of three parts of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics of equal weightage with objective type questions for BE/B.Tech courses and 2nd paper – consisting of Mathematics,Aptitude Test and Drawing for B. Architecture and B. Planning. The Aptitude Test is designed to evaluate candidate’s perception, imagination, observation, creativity and architectural awareness.


Scoring and Negative Marking

There will be objective type questions with four options having single correct answer. For each incorrect response one third of the total marks allotted to the question would be deducted. No deduction from the total score will, however, be made if no response is indicated for an item in the answer sheet. The candidates are advised not to attempt such item in the answer sheet if they are not sure of the correct response. More than one answer indicated against a question will be deemed as incorrect response and will be negatively marked. All objective type questions are required to be answered on specially designed machine gradable answer sheets. Answers are to be marked using ball point pen (black/blue) only. For the purpose of evaluation, Test Booklet Code as printed in the Answer Sheet on Side-2 will be accepted as final.




Subject combination for each paper, type of questions and total marks in each paper are given in the table below :

All India Engineering/Architecture Entrance Examination 2008

INTRODUCTION

Programme of Action (PoA), 1992 under the National Policy on Education (NPE), 1986 envisaged conduct of a common entrance examination on all India basis for admission to professional and technical programmes in the country. For admission to Engineering and Architecture/Planning programmes, Government of India vide Resolution dated 18th October 2001 has laid down a Three – Exam Scheme (JEE and AIEEE at the National Level and the State Level Engineering Entrance Examinations (SLEEE) for State Level Institutions – with an option to join AIEEE). This takes care of varying admission standards in these programmes and helps in maintenance of professional standards. This also solves problems of overlaps and reduces physical, mental and financial burden on students and their parents due to multiplicity of entrance examinations.




The sixth All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) was held on 29th April' 2007. 5,99,096 candidates appeared, out of 6,41,276 candidates registered, for the examination at 1047 centres located in 79 cities. Approximately, 13653 seats in various institutions, namely National Institutes of Technology,Deemed Universities,Technical Institutions and other Govt. funded Institutions were offered through this examination. A centralized counselling had been organized for filling up the All India seats.
The States/Institutes listed below used AIEEE-2007 ranks to fill seats through their own counselling:-
West Bengal, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, Uttrakhand, Punjab University, Chandigarh, Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh, Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, Gandhinagar, Army Institute of Technology, Pune,15% all India quota for D C E/N.S.I.T,Delhi under Delhi University.




Keeping in view greater variety of subjects offered by different School Boards at the 10+2 (Class – XII) level, more subject combinations in qualifying examination (10+2) would now be possible. For the convenience of candidates, provision for on-line submission of Application Form has also been made.




This year many other institutions are expected to admit students through AIEEE. A tentative list of institutions and States/UTs likely to admit students on the basis of AIEEE-2008 is given in Appendix-I. Final list of institutions admitting students through AIEEE-2008 would be contained in the Information Brochure for Counselling and released on AIEEE website in due course. A list of nomenclature of courses approved by AICTE at the undergraduate level in Engineering and Architecture/Planning is given in Appendix-II.
