No more cut-off pressure: Delhi University to conduct entrance exams for admissions

Looking at the graph, can you imagine what the level of competition is? In 2021 the cut-offs for many courses are above 99%. Few courses have already touched 100% cut-off for the first round. What can we expect in 2022? With the trend, it will definitely be 100%, right? Actually no. Thankfully, the university has taken a step to reduce pressure on students. Now no more cut-offs. The admission will depend on the merit score of the entrance exams. So let’s discuss the move.

For the past decade, we have been listening about the pressure a student bears when it comes to scoring in board exams. Aamir Khan even made Taare Zameen Par conveying not to pressurize children for the score, but all in vain. Don’t know how many students have committed suicide because of low marks on boards and the cut-off graph sloping up says it all that the pressure of scoring a good percentage has increased among students. Many students who can’t make it to top universities compromise with their graduation from mediocre college in India, obtain a transcript from Mumbai University, GTU university, or any university they are reading in, complete immigration formalities and fly abroad for better education.

A student can score less in boards because of many reasons. And this shouldn’t be a reason that he/she doesn’t get admission in top universities in India. And therefore I personally consider DU conducting an entrance exam for its graduation courses from 2022 is a great move. It will definitely help relax millions of students who are looking to get admission in Delhi University. The process of going abroad for higher education from Delhi University will be the same. Just like if you are a student of Mumbai University, you obtain a Mumbai University transcript, and similarly, you will need a DU transcript for admission to foreign universities. I will earn in dollars, I will have great respect in my family and friends, and I will see the whole world. These are a few of the little wishes a student has in his heart for studying abroad. Whereas few students are reluctant of going abroad even after they get a good opportunity.

Currently, the entrance exam is conducted for Engineering, MBA, B.Ed., and a few other courses. So conducting entrance exams for other regular courses in the field of Science, Arts and Commerce will boost the demand for these courses as well. It is not decided yet whether the exam will be conducted by DU or any other test agencies but that we will come to know soon. So if you are looking for admission into DU, cheer up. Focus on understanding the concepts and leave aside the pressure of scoring 100% marks. And if you have already completed your graduation and looking to study abroad, then a Worldwide transcript can help procure transcripts from Mumbai University, Delhi University, GTU transcript, and all other universities as well.
