DASA / CIWG & JEE FAQ 2021-22
Answer: Yes, DASA Scheme as well as its subset (the CIWG Scheme) will be available for admissions in the academic year 2021-22. By applying under these scheme, students can take admissions in NITs, IIITs, CFIs & SPAs. The only difference from 2021 is that JEE Mains Rank will be considered valid, not SAT 2.
Answer: No. As notified on the official website of DASA, SAT 2 Scores or SAT Subject Scores will no longer be valid from 2021 onwards to take admissions under DASA & CIWG Scheme.
Answer: The benefit with JEE is that the students who happen to be eligible for JEE Advanced (decided on the basis of JEE Mains Results), can take JEE Advanced Exams to try for admissions in IITs, the most premier engineering Institute in India. The same wasn’t possible with SAT 2 because IITs dont intake students on the basis of SAT 2 Scores. If students can’t clear JEE Advanced, they can still take admissions in NITs, IIITs, CFIs & SPAs on the basis of JEE Mains Rank.
The eligibility criteria for DASA 2021 & CIWG 2021 will remain the same as it is for 2020 or 2019. There are no changes in the eligibility criteria yet announced officially by DASA. Visit here, to check your DASA Eligibility.
Answer: NRI, PIO, OCI Students who are in grade 11th (in 2019) and will be appearing for grade 12th final exams in 2021, are eligible for JEE 2021 to apply under the DASA 2021. If you are in grade 12th (in 2019), you must be appearing for grade 12th final exams in 2020. Hence you will be giving SAT 2 for applying under DASA 2020. If in case you wish to take an year extra just for exam preparation, then the year will be 2021 & hence you will have to take JEE Mains to apply under DASA 2021.
Ans: Because DASA released this notification on 4th of April on its official website (https://dasanit.org/). There are 100% chance that this notification is a final one. No detailed circular has been released as of now but as soon as any such updates arrive, you can find them on our website.
Answer: This is completely unpredictable. But there seems to be less chance that it will be withdrawn. The NRI, PIO, OCI Students who wish to apply for DASA / CIWG 2021 (& years after 2021) must start preparing for JEE Mains.
Answer: No changes have been made in the qualifying exam criteria for DASA 2021. Students must have a minimum of 60%, or equivalent, in Grade 12 Exams (of their respective boards) & must have successfully completed Maths, Physics and one of the subjects from (Chemistry, Biotechnology, Computer Science, Biology) in Grade 11th & 12th.
Answer: The applicants must be thoroughly aware of the syllabus & pattern i.e. revolving around the NCERT textbooks for class 11th & 12th. This is because JEE Syllabus is based on the NCERT Text books. The students must also practice using various reference books /online test series/ coaching/ mock tests/ previous years papers in order to crack JEE 2021 for applying under DASA 2021 or CIWG 2021.
Answer: The JEE cutoff varies every year because of the percentile system. Hence, the exact cut off cannot be mentioned. Every year, JEE cutoff is announced at the time of JEE Result Declaration & it is valid only for that particular year.
Answer: Based on the tough competition students have in India, it is very necessary for students to make extra efforts to clear JEE Mains or Advanced. In India, when science students enter grade 11th, they take up tuitions or coaching to help them prepare for JEE Mains. Because the JEE Syllabus is based on NCERT Textbooks which are used in Grade 11th & 12th, it also helps them prepare for their school exams / board exams. Ideally, 2 years of JEE preparation (coaching, previous years questions practice, test series) is needed for students who want to clear JEE Mains. Hence, it is highly recommended for NRI , PIO, OCI Students to take JEE Coaching if they wish to secure a seat in NITs, IIITs, CFIs or SPAs under DASA / CIWG Scheme 2021.
Answer: Whether you are an NRI Student residing in UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Singapore, or anywhere in the world, Testprepkart has been providing online coaching for JEE & various other entrance exams with proven results. Our online classes are live & completely interactive encouraging the interactions between students and the teachers. We also equip our students with up to date study materials, online test series, doubt clearing sessions. You can book a free demo session with us.
Answer: Observing this pattern of how DASA has been allowing NRI Students to submit their SAT 2 scores through their college board account, there are high chances that from session 2021-22 onwards, NRI Students might be made to submit their JEE Mains Rank to DASA through their JEE mains account.
