We received a good response last year conducting online MBA, MCA entrance exams. We were able to declare results earlier than usual. This year, we plan to make at least the application process for admissions to BTech totally online,'' said a university official.
He said it was still not decided whether examination for BTech will go online or not. "The number of students who appear for engineering is far higher than of those who take MBA, MCA exam. It will take sometime for us to take the final call,'' said an official.
The computer-based test is an attempt by the university to do away with the conventional pen-and-paper mode. University pro vice-chancellor V K Singh said, "A lot of prestigious examinations have gone online. We think it's the better option for students. Maintaining records of thousands of students on paper becomes difficult.''
Last year, the university had given an option of offline and online application process for BTech. To take the final call, the university has called a meeting of officials next week. It is likely that GBTU will stick to its old format of examination pattern. There will be 150 questions, each carrying four options.
