Chennai: For a question like this, anybodys initial guess would be the former, thats the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) for admission to the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs). But if you break into the details of the numbers, its totally a different story.
Numbers dont lie, do they?
About 68 students were estimated to compete for a single seat in this year's BITSAT, the online test for admission into degree courses at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani. On the other hand, only 54 students contested for an IIT seat.
Going deeper into the number, in the case of BITSAT, the number of applications received was 1.36 lakh for 2,000 seats in the institute's campuses in Pilani, Hyderabad and Goa. But 5.2 lakh students took the IIT-JEE on April 8 to be eligible for 9,600 seats in the 15 IITs.
