Does Professor in IIM Kolkata ,
knows that in INDIA there is only one Session and not like USA where there are 3 sessions .Fun is even USA wants to switch some of their exams using OMR. 300,000 is such a less aspirants when there are machines available in market which are scanning 8000-10000 sheets an hour . You can give results in less than 7 days . But I think this outsourcing is some thought of a Marketing Strategy of a so called IT Company , who just wants to make money on Child Future , They would charge Infrastructure and what not .... server of such and such configurations ( each time , year after year , Technology from Java , .NET now this that.. blah blah .Unlike OMR which is their for quiet some time)
OMR is tried and tested technology and every body has evidence of the accuracy .
Suggest Mr Professor , if your software comes with some Bug , do you have a fall back , can you do manual procedure , what is the transparency , what would happen to our RTI Act , suggest what would happen if the connectivity goes down some reason like problem in Network (
Sir Banks whose systems are said to be build on Sun and Developed on Finnacle by Infosys , goes all bad when a banker says sorry the system is not working we cant transfer the funds, do you have any system what a child future would be like ? When the beauty of IIM CAT is the Time Management , Several Cases of Symbiosis has come where local connectivity failed which really caused dearer to students.
I am really surprised if their web sites do not work in time of results ( and we know IIM has tons of money they can take any bull server , like Google )
But would it be worthwhile ?
We can try ONLINE when your aspirants are less , rather than more .Fun is GMAT and GRE is successful as they have more sessions, less people and geographical advantages .Selected Centres ?
Things on OMR or latest technology would be better , you can try scanning double and then matching the same .
What calculation would make 300,000 people do give exam in one Sitting ( NOT POSSIBLE FOR NEXT 5 YEARS , Connectivity is issue)
How many paper sets would professor plans to make ?
Giving in a private IT company hand , what is the seriousness left from the invigilators hand . Mind you he is not a teacher , he would be a general adminsitrative person ,
What would happen if WINDOWS HANGS
and shuts down .And Be Sure it would will you ask an IT Company to create a new OS for Conducting CAT ?
