The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras has started a new way for students to get into its undergraduate programs. This program, called ‘Science Olympiad Excellence’ (ScOpE), is for students who have done very well in national and international science competitions.

Starting from the academic year 2025-2026, students can apply for admission without going through the regular JEE (Advanced) exams. This is similar to how some students get admitted through sports and fine arts.

Each program will have two extra seats just for these applicants, and one seat will be reserved specifically for female students. To apply, candidates must have completed Class 12, just like those applying through JEE (Advanced). The age limit and other rules will also be the same. However, students who have studied at an IIT before cannot apply.

Eligible candidates need to be Indian citizens or have an Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) or Person of Indian Origin (PIO) card that was issued before March 4, 2021. They also need to have participated in at least one major science competition in the last four years, such as:

– Mathematics: International Mathematical Olympiad Training Camps (IMOTC) organized by Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education (HBCSE).
– Physics, Chemistry, Biology: Orientation-cum-Selection Camps (OCSCs) organized by HBCSE.
– Informatics: International Olympiad for Informatics Training Camp (IOITC) organized by the Indian Association for Research in Computer Science (IARCS).

The director of IIT Madras, Prof. V. Kamakoti, said that this new program is about inviting students who are curious and creative thinkers. He believes that real breakthroughs come from exploring ideas rather than just memorizing facts.

Admission to programs through ScOpE will depend on a special ranking list called the ScOpE Rank List (SRL), based on each candidate’s performance in five Olympiads: Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Informatics, and Biology. More details on how the ranking will be created will be available on their website.

The Jadavpur University Teachers Association (JUTA) on Saturday asked leftist students who are protesting to think about stopping their boycott of classes and exams. This protest began after a student got hurt on March 1 when West Bengal Education Minister Bratya Basu’s car brushed against him during a demonstration on campus.

The acting vice-chancellor of the university, Bhaskar Gupta, who is in the hospital since March 5, urged everyone to help bring back normalcy and continue with academic work. He said, “let’s talk and solve these issues peacefully.”

JUTA supported the students’ demands to drop police cases made against some protesters related to the March 1 incident. In a statement, they said it was important for students and teachers to have respect for each other and maintain a good relationship, as is the tradition at the university.

The protesting students, part of leftist groups like SFI, AIDSO, RSF, and AISA, threatened to stop all work at the university’s administrative building if the management didn’t engage in talks with them by March 10. They began an indefinite sit-in protest to make their voices heard.

Two students were hurt when Minister Basu’s car and a follow-up vehicle passed close to them during the protest. Many students have been skipping classes and exams since the incident, and the university is facing disruptions in operations.

JUTA urged students to reconsider their boycott so that academic activities could continue. They also called for a fair investigation into what happened that day. The vice-chancellor expressed sadness for the injuries that occurred and hoped that everyone would recover.

The trouble started when students wanted to speak to the minister about delaying student union elections, which have not happened in the university since 2020. One student leader stated, “We haven’t been able to talk to anyone from the university since the incident. If the acting VC is not well, we want other officials to meet us so we can discuss this.” All the student groups, except for those from the ruling TMC and RSS, are standing together for their rights.

The Bank of India is looking for new Officers! If you’re interested, you can apply online at their official website, bankofindia.co.in. They have 159 positions to fill. Applications will be accepted from March 8 to March 23, 2025.

Who Can Apply?

To find out if you’re eligible, check the Detailed Notification on their website. It will have all the information you need about education and age requirements.

How to Get Chosen?

The selection process will involve an online test or a personal interview, based on how many people apply. The online exam will have questions about English, Professional Knowledge, and General Awareness. You’ll answer a total of 150 questions in 120 minutes.

Most questions, except for English, will be available in both English and Hindi. Keep in mind that the English Language test is just for qualifying; your score in this section won’t count towards your final score. For General and EWS candidates, the minimum passing mark for all tests is 35%.

Be careful when answering; you’ll lose points for wrong answers! For every incorrect answer, one-fourth of the points will be deducted.

Application Fee

If you want to apply, the fee is ₹175 for SC/ST/PwD candidates and ₹850 for General and other candidates. You can pay using Master, Visa, or RuPay cards, debit cards, internet banking, cash cards, mobile wallets, QR codes, or UPI.
