GAYA: With the holding of selection test and finalization of the venue, the roadmap for the Magadh chapter of Super 30, the exercise aimed at conducting talent hunt and grooming hidden talent to crack the IITJEE is ready and as per schedule, the first batch would be kicked off on August 16, 2008. The selection test was held on July 27, 2008 at two different centres in Gaya town. Nearly 1,500 IIT aspirants took the test held at M G College, Gaya and Creane Memorial School centres. The process of evaluation of answersheets of those who took the test has already begun and the exercise is likely to be completed in a week. Super 30 architect Abhayanand has briefed the evaluators about the somewhat complex mechanism to identify talent as aggregate marks alone do not reflect talent. The potential of the candidates has to be analysed from different angles including their approach and capacity to apply their mind. Application of knowledge for problem solving exercises is more important than knowledge per se as the IITJEE exams do not test knowledge of the aspirants alone. A minimum acceptability level has been fixed and if fewer students cross the barrier, the actual intake may be on the lower side of the 30 proposed. Besides scanning the book knowledge of the aspirants, the evaluators have been briefed to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the individual aspirants so that the strong points are given a fillip and efforts are made to overcome individual shortcomings. While briefing the teachers about the study format, Abhayanand advised the teachers to prepare the format in such a way that the confidence level of the aspirants gets a boost at the initial level itself and the "I can do it" feeling is ignited in the aspirants. On account of pressure, mood swings have been observed among the competitors and for that reason, proper counselling is required. Guardians have to be kept away from the study centre and they will not be allowed entry once the programme begins. Explaining the reasons behind the decision to insulate the aspirants from the guardians and other family members, Abhayanand said that as per his observations, guardians tend to transfer their anxieties and apprehensions among the students, which in turn proves to be counter productive. Once admitted, the students will be handed back to the guardians only after IIT examinations to be held on the second Sunday of April, 2009. Gaya chapter of IMA, Central Bihar Chamber of Commerce and G-11, a group of local business leaders have come forward to jointly meet the expenditure of the Magadh Super 30 mission. Brij Bihari (chemistry), B N Singh (physics), Masroor Ahmed (physics) and Pramod Kumar (mathematics) have offered free coaching service to the Magadh Super 30 students. Mission coordinator Geeta Kumari and business leader Anup Kedia would be looking after the nitty gritties of the Magadh Super 30 exercise.
