    If there are two exams in a year will the seats for colleges be halved for each exam?Or will they extend seats?
    Example:govt collges have a max of 150 seats…so will it be halved to 75+75 or doubled to 150+150=300?

    • Anwesha Bose says:

      There isnt any clarification on this yet. However what could happen is is this – students appear in Jan / Feb exam. Then students appear in Apr / May exam. Then students of Jan / Feb , Apr / May take admission together in June-July counselling.

      • Freya says:
        5 years ago

        If common counselling will occur for both Feb and May paper, the candidates appearing in Feb paper will still have to wait till July for counselling and admission. Total number of months they have to give yet remain the same. How does this solve the problem of 1 year time gap then?
