The Indian government plans to introduce a single, nationwide entrance exam called the Indian Science and Engineering Eligibility Test (ISEET) in 2013 for admissions to central government-funded technical institutions. Initially, ISEET may only be implemented for the 15 IITs, 30 NITs, 4 IIITs, 5 IISERs and some deemed universities. The government aims to eventually expand ISEET's scope to all engineering colleges across India by persuading state governments. ISEET 2013 is proposed to be held in April or May as a main exam and an advance exam, each three hours long on the same day. Candidates must score over 40% in Class 12 to be eligible for admissions based on ISE

The Human Resource Development Ministry is all set to go ahead with its plan to conduct a common engineering entrance examination from 2013, but the first nation-wide test may only cover technical institutions funded by the Centre. At the same time, states will also be persuaded to accept the proposal to conduct a single entrance test for admission to engineering colleges under their jurisdiction. As per sources in the HRD Ministry, Ministry will finalize its plan to organize a common entrance in 2013 for admission in science and engineering institutions funded by the Central government, if not then for all the technical institutions functioning across the country. That is next year, the entrance test will only cover 15 Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), 30 National Institutes of Technology (NITs), four Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIITs), five Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISERs) and few deemed universities. Ramasami Committee recommended the single entrance, to be called as Indian ScienceEngineering Eligibility Test (ISEET) 2013, bifurcated into two parts :- main and advancein April or May next year. As per sources, the examination would be of threehours duration and will be held on single day. For admission, a candidate must score above 40 per cent in Class-XII board examination.The combined weightage for the Main and the Advance paper under ISEET shall not, in any case, exceed 60 per cent, sources said.
