AIEEE question paper leak


Chandigarh, May 10
Following the recent leak of All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) question paper, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is mulling over designing an online route to admissions in various medical and engineering institutions.
“As part of our pilot project we had conducted AIEEE online for some candidates and it was a successful experience. Online mode of examination is the future, which will curtail problems like leak etc. We can look forward to online admissions spread over 15 -20 days as in the case of CAT. Though the programme will be a little different, there may be some teething troubles, but, the system will be a more reliable version,” said a CBSE official from Delhi.
The board has constituted a committee to examine the possibilities of conducting online medical and engineering entrance examination. The committee comprises Prof Phalguni Gupta of IIT Kanpur, Prof BR Garg from University of Delhi and MC Sharma, examination director at CBSE, Delhi. The committee has also been asked to find out the source of the leak and suggest ways to plug in the gap.
It has also been asked to expedite related issues highlighted during police investigations.
Exam centres
* CBSE will conduct All India Engineering/Architecture Entrance Examination (AIEEE) tomorrow at five city centres for all those candidates who couldn’t appear for examination on May 1
* City centres and roll numbers of those candidates, who couldn’t appear because the exam centre where they were to appear was also the centre for Armed Forces Medical College (AFMC) examination and the centre couldn’t conduct AIEEE, will remain the same. Such candidates can appear with their old admit cards or download it from CBSE website.
* Those candidates who couldn’t appear in AIEEE because they were to appear for AFMC examination at different centres or because of their online or offline examination or some administrative reasons, were asked to register online through CBSE website between May 3 and 5. Such candidates have been allotted exam centres in the city of their choice. Their roll numbers will remain same as allotted
