The HRD (Human Resource Development) ministry has asked the
state education boards to give priority to the revaluation applications
of Class 12 students who aspire to be an engineer so that they get an
equal shot in India's top engineering colleges including IITs.
According to newspaper reports, there have been instances where after the revaluation, students' scores have improved dramatically, affecting their overall ranking. If the revaluation of Class 12 papers of engineering aspirants is delayed, they miss the opportunity to secure admission to reputed colleges.The marks obtained by students in Class 12 have a huge impact in getting admissions in IITs and NITs as 40 percent weightage is given to board scores. Millions of students take the joint entrance examination, or JEE, every year for admissions to NITs and other colleges.
