Education Minister urges Centre to schedule all competitive exams in September
Education Minister A. Suresh has requested the Union government to schedule all the competitive examinations in September this year, as the State is hopeful of conducting the qualifying examination (10+2 or Intermediate) during August. In a letter addressed to Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal, he said a large number of students from Andhra Pradesh write competitive examinations such as JEE Mains, JEE Advanced, NEET, and ICAR for admission to various professional colleges. “Besides, the State government conducts EAPCET for those who pass 10+2 for admission to engineering, agriculture and pharmacy courses, wherein 25% weightage is given to the qualifying examination score and the remaining 75% for the common entrance test,” Mr. Suresh explained, adding that this mandates the conduct of 10 +2 examination in the State.
