The bunch admission (GST system) test for the country’s 20 general and science and technology universities began with much hope. Later two more were added to make 22. It was hoped that this would reduce the suffering and cost of the students seeking admission. However, many people think that the purpose has not been fully met. In the meantime, the discussion of the single admission test has started from this year. But that did not see the light of day. As a result, it is assumed that this year’s admission exam will be the same as last year.
However, it is known that some universities want to leave the cluster. But there is no opportunity to say anything about it until the final decision is made. Another important thing is that for the last two years there was discussion that top universities of the country including BUET and Dhaka University would come together but they didn’t come. That initiative did not progress much due to complications in the batch admission process.
This time also Dhaka University has already started the process of admission of students for the academic year 2023-24 under its own management and the date has also been announced. Chittagong, Rajshahi and Jahangirnagar will also conduct admission tests separately. All in all, it is safe to say that the admission test is going to be conducted according to the rules of the previous year without major changes. But some changes may come.
In this case, it is important to keep some important facts in mind along with the preparation of the admission seeker students. A few universities in particular want to break out of the cluster. In that case they can go back to their own method of admission process. Their entrance exam papers will do the same. For this, keep a personal diary and write down the related information.
And if the cluster remains the same, some changes are likely. Because every year there are some errors in the admission process. Next year, the universities took initiative to revise them. Update information should be kept in this regard. Not only cluster but all other universities also go through similar changes.
Last year 22 universities were in cluster system. However, due to lack of coordination and various complications, questions have been raised about this process. In this cahotic situation, the authorities will take initiative to correct the errors.
But there is less possibility of change in the question paper. Because of that, there is no reason for students to worry about the preparation. You just need to know the updated information about who is in the group or what kind of changes are coming. Apart from this, after the publication of the admission test notification, the details will be known in this regard.
Another thing is that preparations for national elections are going on in the country. There is also political unrest. That is why the country is going through many changes. This may affect the admission test. Everyone should pay attention to that.
The public universities of the country have started publishing the admission test dates for the academic year 2023-24. Some universities including Dhaka University, BUP, Medical University have announced the date. Some of the top universities with multiple clusters may announce their decision soon. However, the decision on the cluster of 22 universities may come after the elections. This is what the authorities said.
