New IIT JEE pattern and its impact

The JEE Advisory Board made  changes in the IIT JEE pattern in 2006. These changes were made due to the following problems with the old pattern:

The 2nd stage examination (Mains) was of much higher difficulty level than Class XI/XII

This required students to prepare for school and ‘IIT JEE coaching’, separately.

Students could not cope up with the dual pressure of school’ and ‘IIT JEE preparation’

Some students neglected their Class XI/XII studies in trying to keep up their preparation for IITJEE. This caused irreparable damage to their careers.

Most students started dropping an year or more after Class XII to prepare for IIT JEE. Over 70% in 2005, who cracked IITJEE had dropped an year or more.

This led to emergence of destinations like Kota. Here students did rote learning, continuously for log hours to crack IIT JEE.

IITs were not happy with the profile of the students who were joining them since the kota phenomenon started. The students from Kota were not very keen on learning. They were burnt out and exhausted under the Kota system. They were not faring very well in IITs.

Kota system also undermines the importance and utility of the school system. In Kota, students who join in Class XI/XII don’t go to schools. They get proxy attendance.

In IITJEE 2006, JAB made the changes in the pattern to deal with these problems. These changes have made a tremendous impact on the admission patterns. Now, almost 70% of the students who get through, are 1st timers. In the new pattern, it is advisable to prepare along with Class XI & XII.

Students cant afford to neglect school studies or drop an year.

Only genuinely good students, who have a flair for PCM get through IIT JEE


New IITJEE Pattern Old IITJEE Pattern
1 Single Stage Two Stages – Screening & Mains
2 Objective type only 1st Stage: Objective2nd Stage: Descriptive
3 2 tests of 3 hours each 1st Stage: Single test (3 hours)2nd Stage: 3 subject tests (2 hours each)
4 Only 2 attempts allowed Multiple attempts allowed
5 Closer to Class XI and XII in difficulty Much more difficult that XI and XII


These efforts were extremely successful.
1. The number of people going to Kota has reduced dramatically.
2. Coaching institutes had to change the entire course and methodology to suit the new pattern.
3. They started offering tuition for school along with IIT JEE coaching.
4. Most students now prepare along with Class XI – XII

  1. Nice Post. Useful information for iit jee students.

  2. Very useful post for iit jee students.

  3. This problem was highly prevalent in those students who had studies under the state board system. CBSE students are able to cope with the entrance much better.

    A very useful post for students like us…

    But..
    Nowadays, even after the given changes, kota system has become an integral part for jee contenders like us…

    Moreover, its for sure that what we can learn in schools, can never be taught in coachings ( bansal, reasonance, allen, etc. )

    It really seems that kota has become a supermarket for studies…..:-)

    changing the system,means the changing of books ,means books of higher level,then everyone will concentrate fully on it ,might be understanding the things deeply or crimming the things,,,, so a possibility of both means i.e. gain or loss
