UPTU SEE 2011: Lengthy Test for Engineering Aspirant

The change in pattern of the state entrance examinations (UPTU SEE 2011) for admissions to B.Tech/B.Arch gave students a tough time managing the three sections within the stipulated time frame of three hours.

"There were apprehensions among the students. There were questions in which the students were suppose to tick the wrong answer. It was basically aimed at checking their attentiveness," said admission coordinator, UPTU SEE 2011, Prof Onkar Singh.

For the first time, the question paper included multiple choice questions (MCQ), where more than one answer was correct. "Such kind of MCQs were intellectually challenging for the students. To break the comfort level, intricacies of MCQs were included. But, we never wanted students to be stressed out, and so levels were kept low, accordingly," said Prof S K Kak, vice-chancellor, Mahamaya Technical University, which conducted UPTU SEE 2011.

For the students, the paper was simple though lengthy. "The time management was the biggest problem this time. The calculations in mathematics were longer and hence more time was devoted there. However, three sections in three hours was a mammoth task,'' said Shivam Agarwal, who appeared in SEE for the second time.

Similarly, another student, Shikha Singh, gave mixed response. "Physics and chemistry were simple. There was not much problem with MCQs, as such types of questions are asked in other competitive exams also. The trouble was only, when the section for MCQs was not defined."

However, majority of the students found the paper easy except that it was for the first time, when they were appearing for a single slot in SEE. Giving advantages of earlier pattern, an aspirant, Vishal Singh said, "There was ample time to solve the paper. This time, we had to be really attentive and cautious of time."

As many as 1.79 lakh candidates took the exam in 27 cities in the state, as compared to 1.70 lakh aspirants, who appeared last year.
