EARLY TIMES REPORT

PULWAMA, Sept 28: The students aspiring to get admission in Islamic University of Science and Technology (IUST) Awantipora have complained of unfairness as the varsity is going to skip the annual entrance exam, at least according to the official Admission Notification No. 1 of 2020.
According to the official notification, BTech Engineering, MBA/MBA-IB, M.Tech Food Technology and MBA (5-Year Integrated) admissions will be done as per performance in JEE Main, CMAT, GATE and test conducted by a National Level Testing Agency, respectively.
However, for all other programmes including M.A and M.Sc, the admissions will be “based on the percentage of marks in aggregate obtained by a candidate in the qualifying examination.”
“It is mere injustice, when the University of Kashmir can conduct an exam amid Covid-19 pandemic then why Islamic University of Science and Technology cannot conduct exam can’t for us”, said one of the students.
He added, “Even, the national level examinations for Medical and Engineering studies like NEET & JEE Mains were conducted across the country in which lakhs of students appeared. But I fail to understand the helplessness of IUST authorities,” a student said.
“What are we supposed to do, the authorities should look into the matter as soon as possible as the career of many students are in place. We are ready to give offline and online exams both, but let us sit in the exam and compete rather than giving the advantage to students who have scored more marks in graduation”, said another student.
The candidates are aghast against the University authorities for not conducting the usual entrance examination for new admissions for the current academic session.
“The decision to do away with the Entrance Exam is not final, given that the application process ends on October 3 (Saturday) and a meeting will be conducted on Monday (October 5) to take the final call,” said an official.
