Abstract:
I had observed that through the years the standards of the University Undergraduates had gone down considerably. there were several reasons for the fall in standards.
The defective system of admission to Universities had been a primary reason. The G.C E. (A/L) itself was not a satisfactory test to base university admission. The A/L test in Most Subjects was a test of the memory of students. In most subjects it was not a test of intelligence or special skills of a student. The appropriate skills so very necessary especial l y field like Engineering cannot be tested at the G.C.E (A/ L) . This may perhaps explain for the high failure rate in the First year examination in engineering. Then the G.C.E (A/L) was one of luck and chance. Selected topics Could be Studied and the large number of tutorials help this Process. There was the ability to guess questions in most subjects.
This report provides ways and means to streamline the current University Admission Policy.
