Even if the HSC or equivalent exam is canceled, students will still need to be admitted to the university with the merit verification exam in three categories this year. Although five colleges did not participate in the admissions process on the same issue that began last January, 39 public colleges have decided to take this year’s honors exams online in a group system. The university colleges affiliated to the National University, in accordance with the above rules, will admit students on the basis of the GPA obtained from SSC and HSC.
In this regard, five universities, namely Bangladesh University of Engineering (BUET), Dhaka University (DU), Jahangirnagar University (JU), Chittagong University (CU) and Rajshahi University (UK) ) will admit students with separate examinations under their own direction and administration.
Education officials say that since the HSC exam was canceled this year, at least the admissions test should be done in such a way that students have a chance to verify their merits. Otherwise, deserving people can be lost in the crowd of relatively less deserving people at higher levels of education.
Under the latest decision, the HSC exam will be canceled this year due to the crown, but the college admissions test will be taken. And this admission test will be done online. Students can participate in the admission test online or offline through an application. Software for this is also being developed.
Earlier on Saturday, Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology, Vice Chancellor Prof. A virtual meeting has been held under the chairmanship of Rafiqul Alam on how to admit students to the university this year. CVs from 47 public universities in the country participated in the meeting. Although the HSC and equivalent exams were canceled due to the Corona epidemic, they decided to admit students at the honors level through the public college admissions test.
VC Organization of the Council of Public Universities President Prof. Mohammad Rafiqul Alam said: “Since the HSC exam was canceled due to this year’s crown, we believe that there should be a minimum merit or grading system for students to be admitted to the university. So we have decided to take the online admission test and then the students will be admitted to the university. Also said, VC Professor of Bangabandhu Digital University. At the meeting they discussed about conducting this test using the software Invented by Monaj Ahmed Noor.
According to sources from the meeting, in the current situation, it is difficult to take the admission test directly, which is why all the VCs have emphasized the online admission test. In addition, the Vice Chancellor of Bangabandhu Digital University has presented dummy software (sample) suitable for taking exams at the meeting. Through this it is possible to take all kinds of university exams. Once the software is developed, it will be implemented with the approval of the government and the College Scholarship Commission.
According to interested sources, this year the admission test will be carried out in five stages in a coordinated manner at the universities of agriculture, engineering and general. Among them, there will be three exams for the departments of science, commerce and humanities of the general universities. Software is being developed for testing. It is called “Proctor Remote Exam System (Procus)”. It will be possible to take an admission test and an internal academic test with it.
University Scholarship Commission Member Prof. Alamgir Hossain told Naya Digant last night that since the HSC exam was not conducted this year, it is important to take an exam in case of student admission to the university. However, there is still work to be done in the process of conducting this test. It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving office. “We have been working on a uniform testing system for college admissions since last January,” he added. But we could not advance because five universities did not agree to participate there. We have now started work to organize the test into a new group method. Hopefully, everyone will participate in this admission test to the group method.
