Troubles and confusion do not seem to end for first year of Common Entrance Test (CET) 2013, for engineering admissions, as only so far State of Gujarat has agreed to join the two-part Joint Entrance Examination (JEE), which is likely to be held on April 7 and June 2, 2013, JEE Main and JEE Advanced respectively. IITs, NITs, IIITs that would participate in JEE are under the central government.

“In the first year, the one nation, one test would not get implemented the way it was being showcased by the HRD ministry. While few states like Maharashtra have agreed to join JEE in 2014, it is likely that many more states would not be a party to the common test. There are still many doubts about the proposal,” one of the IIT Directors is reported to have said while talking to TOI.

In 2013, it was the turn of IIT-Kharagpur in the practice of rotation of conducting the test, but it was felt that due to changed nature of the test IIT-Delhi should be allowed to conduct it again since it is centrally located.

A single test would require establishment of a massive organizational set up.
