One issue could be syllabus if the exams are held in December. And this might give undue advantage to droppers who know the full syllabus. But if the syllabus of the exam is adjusted accordingly, this could go a long way in reducing academic stress.xyzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04869732113318660644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4273139713770751485.post-60806822036695339782017-03-11T18:44:00.344+05:302017-03-11T18:44:00.344+05:30More than the timing of the test, if they could ch...More than the timing of the test, if they could change the nature of the test such that it is coaching-proof, the stress would be minimised.

However, there was a lot of resistance from others in the committee, so we ended up with just a couple of such questions from me.Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03186014514110985045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4273139713770751485.post-5032413424564037452017-03-11T01:56:33.645+05:302017-03-11T01:56:33.645+05:30Why do we so excessively stress on some PCM entran...Why do we so excessively stress on some PCM entrance exam and just have a SAT/GRE or even easier an IQ+EQ test?<br />Students in Mumbai start their JEE prep V or VI class onwards.
