The functioning of the National Testing Agency (NTA), which conducts big and prestigious exams like JEE Main, CUET and NEET, is under question. The provisional answer key of the exam should be released within a few hours, but the situation is that it took 4 days for the provisional answer key of JEE Main to come. After 5 days, the final answer key was released but was withdrawn within two and a half hours. Then it was released the next day. 70.5 lakh candidates had registered for this exam and 9.5 lakh had given the exam. Similarly, 18 days have passed since the CUET-PG exam, but the final answer key has not been released. Whereas, the results should have come by now. There were 4 lakh candidates in this exam too. In the final answer key of JEE Main that has been released, the answers of 11 questions also had to be corrected. In an exam in which every single question matters. Such a big mistake in it is a joke with the candidates.
Machines are being used to prepare the paper… Increase human intervention
When the question paper is prepared, the answers are also available at the same time, then why is the answer key not released on the same day as soon as the last paper of any session is over so that students have enough time to raise objections. This trend of releasing the results late at night is also wrong, it should be released in the morning working hours and should be released after satisfying the objections of the students on the answer key.
Similarly, when a group of teachers and experts prepares the question paper and randomly selects questions from the questions suggested by them, then there is a huge difference in the difficulty level for students of different sessions. It seems that NTA is focusing more on machine based work and no human is doing the work of preparing the paper, otherwise such mistakes cannot happen that none of the options is correct or there is more than one correct option. If there is human intervention in two to three stages of the paper preparation process, then the chances of mistakes will be reduced after the paper. Having such a large number of mistakes in a paper like JEE is injustice to the students. In a paper like JEE, every second of the students is precious. If one or two minutes are wasted by getting stuck in a wrong question or option, then there can be so much difference in the ranking that the student may not get the desired college or stream, whereas there is no fault of the student in it.
On the other hand, the situation of CLAT is also the same…. Objection on 12-14 questions, matter in court. Objections were made on 12-14 questions in the answer key of CLAT-25 conducted by Consortium of National Law Universities in December. The matter reached the High Court. The decision on this is still reserved.
