However, the application fee for boys would be hiked by Rs. 800/- from the current Rs 1,000/-. Which means boys will have to pay Rs. 1800/- for the application fee for the prestigious Joint Entrance Examination conducted by IITs. But if they apply ONLINE then they will have to pay just Rs. 1600/-.
Carry home your OMR Sheet

With the Right to Information act being stressed repeatedly by the supreme court, applicants of IITJEE-2012 will be able to take home a copy of the OMR (optic response sheet). The OMR copy will have the responses marked by the applicant, which will enable him to tally with the answer keys once the key is released.
Mark your response with a pen
Other change announced is about the use of pen for marking responses on the OMR sheet.
