Soon after the human resource development ministry announced the handing over of competitive exams like JEE, NEET to the National Testing Agency (NTA), a new set of rules have been prepared and are ready to roll from next year. The NTA now mandates competitive exams to be all computerised, meaning which, the examinations will rely heavily on technological tools like Artificial Intelligence, Psychometric analysis and Computer-based adaptive testing.

With this, each candidate will now get a unique set of questions, with the software picking questions randomly for candidates.

In a statement, Vineet Joshi, director general of NTA, said: "The test will be 100 per cent safe... The highest level of encryption will be used so that no one can hack into the system," the Times of India reported.

The changes to the examination pattern include distracting candidates with multiple choice questions to fox them. "And with millions of questions (items) to be prepared instead of a couple of question papers for a particular test, you will be at the mercy of the software's algorithm, which will pick up items at random for your test at a particular date, based on the set of difficulty-level," an official was quoted as saying by the Times of India.
