Universities and colleges have reviewed the minimum admission requirement, which is in favor of the majority of takers who are sitting their exams.
This is when it emerged that most of the students dropped out of their dream career for not meeting certain subject grades.
Experts argue that some subjects required for some courses are given excessive importance, yet they are not important in training, while in other cases, some important topics required are omitted or given less emphasis.
Due to this many students have lost their dream course as the subject groups, which lay down the minimum requirements for various courses, were reviewed a few years back.
If the placement criteria are amended then those who will benefit the most will be teachers and students studying in agriculture courses.
For example, students studying agriculture-related courses are currently required to have a C+ in biology and chemistry.
In the new proposals, however, this requirement has been reduced to field C for both subjects. Agriculture (C+) has also been introduced as an alternative to C field in biology.
