Both channels can be legitimate, and can lead to quality admissions.<br /><br />For example, IISERs admit students through JEE as well as through KVPY. Would you call one of the channels as back-door.<br /><br />Similarly, BITS Pilani admits students through BITSAT as well as toppers of various boards are given direct admission. Which of the two channels is back-door?<br /><br />LNMIIT Jaipur offers admission through JEE as well as through AIEEE. Again, is there a back-door entry here?<br /><br />IITs already admit students from within IIT system to MTech without GATE. There are IITs which are claiming to admit even others without GATE in certain cases. Are they involved in a back-door entry?<br /><br />SASTRA also has two channels of admission - 12th class marks, and AIEEE. Is it indulging in back-door entry?Dheeraj Sanghihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06367519409840642182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4273139713770751485.post-63541456257299947742011-03-16T14:37:04.743+05:302011-03-16T14:37:04.743+05:30@Prof. Sanghi: If a student wants to get admission...@Prof. Sanghi: If a student wants to get admission under the direct Ph.D. proposed, he / she can by-pass GATE. However, other students, who take the normal path (GATE - M.Tech. - Ph.D.) have to undergo GATE. Isn't this back-door entry?Subrahmanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09341309842213646809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4273139713770751485.post-16566219629369897512011-03-15T14:54:39.420+05:302011-03-15T14:54:39.420+05:30@Subrahmanya, I did not know that the definition o...@Subrahmanya, I did not know that the definition of back-door entry is to have an alternate channel of admission, which is transparent and open to scrutiny, and that too for a program where there are not enough takers. If this is how we will define back-door entry, then what you are arguing is that there should be no experiment done in an academic institution.Dheeraj Sanghihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06367519409840642182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4273139713770751485.post-56882024250559607632011-03-15T14:43:14.719+05:302011-03-15T14:43:14.719+05:30This is regarding the first proposal:

IF the quality is poor, instead of adoption at IIT system, the student may not me able to even cope up with the IIT system itself.<br />2. This can be used as a back-door entry. At present, the student has to write GATE, qualify-for and complete master degree, and then pursue Ph.D. Now, in the proposal, GATE is not a must and hence becomes a back-door entry.Subrahmanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09341309842213646809noreply@blogger.com
