The HRD ministry of Govt Of India is ready to go ahead and conduct common entrance examination from 2013 onwards.
IIT-JEE, AIEEE plus other engineering entrance examinations will be replaced by a new examination called Indian Science Engineering Eligibility Test or ISEET.
Which are the institutes that are going to accept ISEET score?
Who will conduct the ISEET exam?
Most probably CBSE and IITs jointly.
Test pattern for ISEET
ISEET will have two papers on the same day:
ISEET Main:
ISEET Main will be an objective type exam, and will test comprehension, critical thinking and logical reasoning.
ISEET Advance will test problem-solving ability in basic science subjects.
The two tests ISEET Main and ISEET Advance together will indicate a candidate’s scholastic level and aptitude for science and engineering.
What will be the "Admission policy"?
Most probably it will be based on AIEEE syllabus or NCERT books.
How many times in a year ISEET will be conducted?Initially, ISEET will be conducted twice in a year. Later may be set to thrice in a year.
Validity of ISEET scoreTwo years
Any sample paper?
Most likely CBSE will release an update in June/July 2012.

- Hundreds of State Govt. funded/controlled colleges in various states.
- Others private engineering Colleges in various states.
Who will conduct the ISEET exam?
Most probably CBSE and IITs jointly.
Test pattern for ISEET
ISEET will have two papers on the same day:
ISEET Main:
- Duration of ISEET Main – 3 hours
- Paper-Test Pattern of ISEET Main – Areas Tested at ISEET:
- Reading Comprehension & Critical Thinking and Logical Reasoning
- Weight-age to ISEET Main: 30% minimum
- Duration of ISEET Advance3 hours.
- Paper-Test Pattern of ISEET Main – Areas Tested at ISEET:
- Problem Solving Ability in Basic Science Subjects (Phy, Chem, Maths)
- Weightage for ISEET Advance: 30% minimum
ISEET Main will be an objective type exam, and will test comprehension, critical thinking and logical reasoning.
ISEET Advance will test problem-solving ability in basic science subjects.
The two tests ISEET Main and ISEET Advance together will indicate a candidate’s scholastic level and aptitude for science and engineering.
What will be the "Admission policy"?
- Class 12th score (not less than 40% weight) + ISEET score(Main 30% + Advanced 30%)
- Board + State governments will set the weights (normalized percentile will be computed for different boards)
Most probably it will be based on AIEEE syllabus or NCERT books.
How many times in a year ISEET will be conducted?Initially, ISEET will be conducted twice in a year. Later may be set to thrice in a year.
Validity of ISEET scoreTwo years
Any sample paper?

I am in support of this common entrance examination but not in favor of the using 12th examination board exams percentage to calculate the final rank and marks.
