Indian Institutes Of Technology (IIT)

Indian Institutes Of Technology (IIT)


Studying in an IIT or Indian Institute of Technology is the first thing that every ambitious engineering aspirant can think of in India. IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, IIT Kanpur, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Madras, IIT Guwahati, IIT Roorkee are the seven IITs in India that are also termed as National Institutes of Importance. Set up under the Institutes of Technology Act, 1963, IITs are statutory bodies. The central administration of the IITs is looked after by the IIT Council. IITc Council is the apex body which is headed by the Human Resource Department of Indian Government.

Beside the existing seven IITs, nine more IITs have been proposed to be set up in different parts of the country. These states are - Madhya Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, Gujarat, Orissa, Bihar and Punjab. IT-BHU will also be converted into an IIT. For a nation which is huge in every dimension needs some more institutes of high standard technology education.



Development of IITs
:
The foundation for the IITs in India was laid in 1946 by the Executive Council of Viceroy, Sir Jogendra Singh.
The main aim was to develop a technical structure to aid the industrial development in the country.
On May 1950, the first Indian Institute of Technology was set up in Kharagpur.
By 1961 four more such institutes were established in Mumbai, Kanpur, Chennai and Delhi.
IIT Guwahati was established in 1994.
In 2001, University of Roorkee was granted IIT status. This formed the seventh campus of the IITs in India.
IIT Admissions
Getting into an IIT is a dream that thousands of Indians nourishes. However, as IITs offer different types of courses, the admission procedure also varies. Admission to most of the courses depends on the performance of the candidates in the concerned entrance examination.


IIT Entrance Test

(A) Undergraduate Courses:
While IIT JEE is the entrance examination for getting admitted to any of the bachelor degree courses, for B.Des and B Arch separate aptitude tests have to be given along with IIT-JEE.


(B)Postgraduate Courses: For studying Postgraduate courses in IITs, one needs to appear in the appropriate entrance exam.

These entrance exams are -
GATE (M. Tech)
CEED (M.Des)
JAM (Msc)
(C) PhD: Usually an interview is held, though a written examination may be organized according to the discretion of the authorities. The following colleges are being reviewed for granting IIT status:
University College of Technology
Engineering and Technology departments of Jadavpur University, Kolkata
IT-BHU
AMU Aligarh
Andhra University College of Engineering
Bengal Engineering College
Cochin University of Science and Technology
Zakir Hussain College of Engineering and Technology
University College of Engineering
Recognized as Institutes of National Importance, by the Government of India, the IITs are viewed as one of the best places to study technology and science.Find Below links for other IITs in India:

Step by step approcah to problem solving

Step by step approcah to problem solving
Students of our generations are hard pressed for time. They have so many distractions today so that it becomes very difficult for them to concentrate on their studies. IIT JEE examination does not demand memorizing everything. Rather IIT JEE demands understanding of the topics. Our experience has shown that by mugging up and memorizing everything students will not be able to crack IIT JEE. Rather student should give time to each topic and relentlessly go about the same unless he or she gets full hold over the topic.

For this, a proper approach to problem solving is mandated. There are many ways in which one go about problem solving. But best approach is to go step by step. This may even take more time initially but this is the only way to bring about smooth organized flow of thoughts and clarity of concepts in to student's mind. As one progresses through step by step approach, student can himself notice how thoughts smoothly get regulated and comes nicely on a sheet of paper. Every student can achive this symphony with proper tuning and training of the mind. We will continue with our series.

Common GD PI for all IIMs?

Common GD PI for all IIMs?
Unlike the UPSC which conducts a common interview for the various cadres of the Civil Services Examinations, the IIMs have been conducting separate Group Discussions (GD) and Personal Interviews (PI) for each IIM. This has allowed each IIM to maintain its own discretion in selecting students as per its criteria - over the years we have often noticed that a students may get an interview call from say IIM Ahmedabad but not from IIM Bangalore or he may get a call from IIM Kolkata and IIM Lucknow but not from IIM Indore. This was because of certain differences in the selection criteria adopted by an IIM - in the last few years, it has been observed that IIM Bangalore prefers to give a GD PI call to a student with work-ex compared to another candidate who may have performed better at the CAT. Similary, the other IIMs had their own selection system.

Now an IIM Review Committee headed by R C Bhargava has recommended a common GD PI System for the IIMs. With the number of IIMs slated to increase to upto 13 in the coming years, the committee feels that it will no longer be feasible for candidates who get multiple Group Discussion & Interview calls to manage. It is also a waste of time, since the same job can be accomplished with much fewer GDs & PIs if the system was unified by the IIMs. The final allotment would then be similar to what happens after the IIT JEE or the Medical Entrance Exams - starting from the 1st rank students can choose the IIM they wish to enrol in.

However, the report adds that not all IIM Directors were happy with the recommendations and as such it may be initially implemented on a voluntary basis. While a common Interview System for the IIMs has its obvious benefits, the existing system had its own merits.

Different admission criteria allowed a larger pool of students to have a reasonable chance of making it to an IIM - a student may have been weak in a particular aspect, but if even one of the IIMs had a relaxed outlook on that particular point, this student stood a chance of realizing his IIM dream. The unified system would now have one 'ideal profile' or 'aggregate sum of points on one set of admission criteria', thus ruling out many bright students.

Another benefit of the separate GD PI system was that it reduced the pressure on the interviewee - just one bad day wouldn't make or break him; while a bad candidate would always be found lacking, a bright student who might have had a bad interview or GD at a particular IIM would get a chance to redeem himself in the next one.

Determinants - July Dec Revision

Determinants - July Dec Revision
12.1 Definition

Every square matrix can be associated to an expression or a number which is known as determinant.

If the matrix has only one element a11 then a11 is the determinant.

If the matrix is of order 2 that 2 by 2 matrix

|A| =

|a11 a12|
|a21 a22| =

a11*a22 – a12*a21

Determinant of a square matrix of order 3

Determinant of a square matrix of order 3 is the sum of the product of elements a1j in the first row with (-1) 1+j times the determinant of a 2×2 sub-matrix obtained by leaving the first row and column passing through the element.



(i) Only square matrices have determinants.
(ii) The determinant of a square matrix of order three can be expanded along any row or column.

Determinant of a square matrix of order 4 or more

(iii) Determinant of a square matrix of order 4 or more can be determined following the procedure of finding the determinant of a square matrix of order 3. But in this case, especially in the case of 4×4 matrix, when we omit the rows and columns containing the elements of a row, we get 3×3 sub-matrices and we have to find determinants for them.

12.2 Singular matrix

A square matrix is a singular matrix if its determinant is zero.
Otherwise it is a non-singular matrix.


12.3 Minors and cofactors

Minor: For a square matrix [aij] or order n, the minor Mij of aij, in A is the determinant of the square sub-matrix of order (n-1), obtained by leaving (or striking off) ith row and jth column of A.

Cofactor: Cofactor of an element aij in a square matrix [aij] is termed Cij.

Cij = (-1) i+j Mij

Mij is the minor of element aij in a square matrix [aij].

Minors and cofactors are defined for elements of a square matrix only. They are not defined for determinants.

12.4 Properties of determinants

1. For a square matrix, the sum of the product of elements of any row (or column) with their cofactors is always equal to determinants of the matrix.

2. For a square matrix, the sum of the product of elements of any row (or column) with the cofactors of corresponding elements of some other row (or column) is zero.

3. The value of a determinant remains unchanged if its rows and columns are interchanged.

4. If any two rows (or columns) of a determinant are interchanged, then the value of the determinant changes by minus sign only.

5. If any two rows or columns of a determinant are identical then its value is zero.

6. If each element of a row (or a column) of a determinant is multiplied by a constant k, then the value of the new determinant is ‘k’ times the value of the original determinant.

7. If each element of a row (or a column) of a determinant is expressed as a sum of two or more terms, then the determinant can be expressed as the sum of two or more determinants of the same order.

8. If each element of a row (or a column) of a determinant is multiplied by the same constant and then added to the corresponding elements of some other row (column) then the value of the determinant remains same.

9. If each element of a row (or column) in a determinant is zero, then its value is zero.

10. If the matrix is a diagonal square matrix then its determinant is the product of all the diagonal elements.

11. If A and B are square matrices of the same order, then

|AB| = |A| |B|

12. If a matrix is a triangular matrix of order n, then its determinant is the product of all the diagonal elements.

12.5 Evaluation of Determinants

To evaluate determinants or large matrices, we use the properties of determinants given in section 12.4 above, to create many zeroes in the elements of a row or column and then expand the determinant using elements and cofactors of that row or column.

12.6 Evaluation of Determinants by using Factor Theorem

If f(x) is a polynomial and f(α) = 0 the, (x- α) is a factor of f(x).

If a determinant is a polynomial in x, then (x- α) is factor of the determinant if its value is zero when we put x = α.

Using this rule we can find determinant as a product of its factors.

12.7 Product of Determinants

A definition of product of determinants is similar to the rule of multiplication of matrices.

Andhra boasts of producing maximum IITians

Andhra boasts of producing maximum IITians

Andhra Pradesh breeds the most number of IITians in the country. At least the JEE organizing committee’s report to MHRD proves so. This year the maximum number of students qualifying for IIT from a single state - 1,697 - came from Andhra Pradesh with Uttar Pradesh following next with 1,194 students out of a total of 5,524 successful candidates.

According to the data compiled after the joint entrance examination (JEE) in 2007, Andhra had given the highest number of students to IITs - 1,384. According to IIT veterans, Andhra Pradesh has been on the top of the state-wise list of qualifying students in the last few years.

“This has been a general perception among all IITians that number of students coming to IIT from AP is more than from other state. The main reason for it is that Hyderabad is a major hub of coaching centres like Kota. And I must say, these coaching centres are doing a great job in training students for IIT JEE,” said M S Anand, director, IIT-Chennai.

According to IIT professors, many students from south India migrate to Hyderabad for coaching and manage to crack JEE. So the students coming from Andhra Pradesh may not necessarily be natives. Most of them are known to go for a seat in IIT Chennai or IIT Bombay. And, with IIT Hyderabad debuting this year under the mentorship of IIT Chennai, the number is expected to go up.

“Students in Andhra Pradesh did not have an IIT till now. But they studied really hard and usually joined Chennai or Bombay. But of late, it seems most of them are going to IIT-Bombay. They say they like the food there better!” remarked Anand. Surprisingly, only 202 out of 9,929 students qualified from Tamil Nadu itself.

According to R Chattopadhyay, JEE chairperson, IIT-Delhi, this trend has come up in the last couple of years. “Once the students join the classes, nobody knows who comes from where because they all mingle so well. But the figures in the last two years have shown that most students qualify from Andhra. Many students also travel to Hyderabad for coaching adding to the number,” he said. According to IIT officials, while IIT Delhi mostly gets students from north India in BTech, there are many students from Andhra Pradesh in the MTech course.

As for the maximum number of students appearing for JEE, UP leads the pack with 72,028 students appearing for JEE 2008 while 57,488 in 2007. Bihar also had a huge number of IIT aspirants - 30,490 this year and 14,854 in 2007 - however, unlike UPSC exams, they could not take IITs by storm. While 533 qualified this time, 146 were successful last year.

BITSAT-2008 Test Format:

BITSAT-2008 will be of total 3-hour duration (without break). The test consists of four parts:

Part I : Physics
Part II : Chemistry
Part III : (a) English Proficiency and (b) Logical Reasoning
Part IV : Mathematics OR Biology
Students who have taken Mathematics and not Biology in 10+2 have to appear for Mathematics in Part IV. Students who have taken Biology in 10+2 and not Mathematics have to appear for Biology in Part IV. Students who have taken both Mathematics and Biology in 10+2 can opt for either Mathematics or Biology in Part IV. Candidates who appear in Biology in Part IV will be eligible for admission to M.Sc. (Hons.) Biological Sciences and B.Pharm. (Hons.) only. Candidates who appear in Mathematics in Part IV will be eligible for admission to any of the Integrated First degree programmes, including M.Sc.(Hons.) Biological Sciences and B.Pharm.( Hons.).

All questions are of objective type (multiple choice questions); each question with choice of four answers, only one being correct choice. Each correct answer fetches 3 marks, while each incorrect answer has a penalty of 1 mark. No marks are awarded for not attempted questions. While the candidate can skip a question, the computer will not allow the candidate to choose more than one option as correct answer.

There will be 150 questions in all. The number of questions in each part is as follows:




Subject
No of questions

Part I

Physics
40

Part II

Chemistry
40

Part III

(a) English Proficiency
(b) Logical Reasoning

15
10

Part IV

Mathematics OR Biology
45


Total:
150

There is no time limit for individual parts of the test. The candidate can go back and change any of his/her answers among the 150 questions.

If a candidate answers all the 150 questions (without skipping any question), the candidate will have an option of attempting 12 (twelve) extra questions, if there is still time left. These extra questions will be from Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics / Biology only; four questions from each part. Further, once the candidate has opted for extra questions, he cannot go back for correction of any of the earlier answered 150 questions.

The questions are so designed that a good student will be able to answer 150 questions in 180 minutes. The extra questions (a maximum of 12) will give a chance to highly meritorious candidates to score higher. However, candidates should keep in mind the fact that there is negative marking for wrong answers and any attempt to answer the questions by pure guessing of the answers is not likely to have any advantage, but may result in a reduction in the total score.

The questions will be selected at random from a large question bank. Different candidates will get different question sets. An expert committee will ensure that the question sets are of comparable difficulty level, content, question type etc. In this matter, the decision of the expert committee will be final and binding on the candidate. All the questions and instructions of the test will be in English only.

Each candidate who registers for BITSAT-2008 will be instructed to download a ‘Hall Ticket’. Candidates with the hall ticket only will be allowed inside the test centers. Candidates should bring a pen for the purpose of rough work, signing etc. Blank sheets for rough work will be provided, if required. Calculators and logarithmic tables are not allowed in the test centers. Candidates are not allowed to bring any other personal belongings such as mobiles.

All centers are closely monitored for security and candidates’ identity and activities will be recorded using web cameras and/or closed circuit TV cameras. Anyone violating the rules of the test center will not be allowed to continue with the test and will be automatically disqualified.

Syllabus:

The BITSAT-2008 test will be conducted on the basis of NCERT syllabus for 11th and 12th class. The detailed syllabus is given in the Annexure.

3. BITSAT Test Details

‘Computer Based Online test’ means the candidate sits in front of a computer and the questions are presented on the computer monitor and the candidate submits the answers through the use of key board or mouse. Each computer is connected to a server which prepares the question set and delivers it to the candidate on the computer. This is unlike the traditional paper-pencil based test which is generally offered on a single day to all candidates. BITSAT-2008 will be offered over a period of time and the candidate can choose the center, the day and time of his/her convenience to take the test, as described in the later sections.

BITSAT-2008 Test Format

BITSAT-2008 will be of total 3 hour duration (without break). The test consists of four parts:

Part I : Physics

Part II : Chemistry

Part III : (a) English Proficiency and (b) Logical Reasoning

Part IV : Mathematics OR Biology

Students who have taken Mathematics and not Biology in 10+2 have to appear for Mathematics in Part IV. Students who have taken Biology in 10+2 and not Mathematics have to appear for Biology in Part IV. Students who have taken both Mathematics and Biology in 10+2 can opt for either Mathematics or Biology in Part IV. Candidates who appear in Biology in Part IV will be eligible for admission to M.Sc. (Hons.) Biological Sciences and B.Pharm. (Hons.) only. Candidates who appear in Mathematics in Part IV will be eligible for admission to any of the Integrated First degree programmes, including M.Sc.(Hons.) Biological Sciences and B.Pharm.( Hons.).

All questions are of objective type (multiple choice questions); each question with choice of four answers, only one being correct choice. Each correct answer fetches 3 marks, while each incorrect answer has a penalty of 1 mark. No marks are awarded for not attempted questions. While the candidate can skip a question, the computer will not allow the candidate to choose more than one option as correct answer.

There will be 150 questions in all. The number of questions in each part is as follows:


Subject
No of questions

Part I
Physics
40

Part II
Chemistry
40

Part III
(a) English Proficiency

(b) Logical Reasoning
15

10

Part IV
Mathematics OR Biology
45


Total:
150


There is no time limit for individual parts of the test. The candidate can go back and change any of his/her answers among the 150 questions.

If a candidate answers all the 150 questions (without skipping any question), the candidate will have an option of attempting 12 (twelve) extra questions, if there is still time left. These extra questions will be from Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics / Biology only; four questions from each part. Further, once the candidate has opted for extra questions, he can not go back for correction of any of the earlier answered 150 questions.

The questions are so designed that a good student will be able to answer 150 questions in 180 minutes. The extra questions (a maximum of 12) will give a chance to highly meritorious candidates to score higher. However, candidates should keep in mind the fact that there is negative marking for wrong answers and any attempt to answer the questions by pure guessing of the answers is not likely to have any advantage, but may result in a reduction in the total score.

The questions will be selected at random from a large question bank. Different candidates will get different question sets. An expert committee will ensure that the question sets are of comparable difficulty level, content, question type etc. In this matter, the decision of the expert committee will be final and binding on the candidate.

All the questions and instructions of the test will be in English only.

Each candidate who registers for BITSAT-2008 will be issued a ‘Hall Ticket’. Candidates with the hall ticket only will be allowed inside the test centers. Candidates should bring a pen for the purpose of rough work, signing etc. Blank sheets for rough work will be provided, if required. Calculators and logarithmic tables are not allowed in the test centers. Candidates are not allowed to bring any other personal belongings such as mobiles.

All centers are closely monitored for security and candidates’ identity and activities will be recorded using web cameras and/or closed circuit TV cameras. Anyone violating the rules of the test center will not be allowed to continue with the test and will be automatically disqualified.

BITSAT 2008 Syllabus:

The BITSAT-2008 test will be conducted on the basis of NCERT syllabus for 11th and 12th class. The detailed syllabus is given in the Annexure. Candidates may refer to the NCERT text books for the contents. A sample test will be made available to the registered candidates at the BITS website on which he/she can practice as many times as desired.

Goiit Gives IIT JEE Tutorials Online

Students preparing for IIT and other engineering entrance exams now have help from the online medium.

Noida-based Vriti Education has launched Goiit.com, an online education portal to serve as a platform for students preparing for their Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) as well as other competitive entrance exams like AIEEE, BITSAT, WBJEE, etc.
What is interesting about the venture is that it comes for free, sans subscription fees, and is intended as a huge advantage for the student community.

Developed by alumni of IIT Mumbai and IIT Delhi, Goiit.com will provide engineering aspirants with expert advice and guidance through an expert panel comprising IIT students, graduates, and engineering coaching professionals.

The portal intends to bring together students, teachers, and the IIT community in general so that they can collectively put some of the best brains in the business to constructive use.

Swapnil Shrivastav, chief executive officer of Goiit.com, said Goiit comes as a great advantage for students who've been craving for personalized help but cannot afford it due to cost or demographics.

Shrivastav voiced the view that from Gurukul to online mode, education has come a long way to become an ever-changing sector -- now breaching geographical boundaries to reach out to people across the globe.

Pankaj Vermani, vice president of Goiit.com, said Goiit is possibly the only Web site (and supposedly a 'cool' one) that gives a unique platform for engineering aspirants to prepare for JEE, and use the online community, forum, online tutorials, study materials, and all of that for free.

As of now, Goiit has a 50-strong team, made up of IIT alumni, engineering graduates, and engineering coaching professionals.
