Future Proof the Aspirational Students of Class 12th at Your School

REGISTER YOUR SCHOOL HERE

By Nominating Only Upto 20 Aspirational Students of Class 12th

Extend them an Opportunity to Secure a Privileged Seat in One of the Prestigious Futuristic Technical Institutions of the Country Offering Futuristic UG Programmes

A Futuristic UG Programme essentially would comprise of 

– Interdisciplinary Learning & Research

– Human Centric Design Focus towards Products, Systems, Services, Built Environment

– Foundational Digital Competencies

– Linkages to Large-Scale Real World Issues & Problems

– Capability to Absorb VUCA and march towards 5THIRA (Stability)

besides other features…which shall be put to a rigorous testing by RISAT 2020 Secretariat.

The fate of the future of Techno-Managerial Education in India shall be determined by the trinity of
Research, Innovation & Entrepreneurship.

While institutions of higher education are gearing up to meet up these futuristic requirements, we at ReTHINK INDIA thought of filtering the duly oriented students by way of conducting ReTHINK INDIA STEAM ASSESSMENT TEST (RISAT) at an all India level whereby the Research, Innovation & Entrepreneurial Quotients of the wannabe technocrats shall be ascertained and an elaborate scorecard shall be generated out of the same which shall be an additional yardstick to extend admission offers to them apart from their
standardized PCMB transcripts and scores.

The testing contexts for the RISAT would be sourced from coveted industrial & applied research organisations like CSIR, DRDO, ISRO, DAE, DBT, PSUs along with some of the leading lights of techno-managerial education globally.

It has been found that a large number of students who perform just average on count of PCMB have an innate research, innovation and entrepreneurial faculty which gets sidelined due to absence of platforms which can test and gauge them well in time.

Apart from them, a large number of meritorious and deserving outliers tend to look for differentiated programmes whereby their Research, Innovation & Entrepreneurial Quotients can be honed further.

What better than filtering them out by this elaborate process of RISAT.

RISAT would put the fundamental knowledge of PCMB to test in applied contexts and would thereby try to evoke and gauge the research, innovation and entrepreneurial faculties of the students at large.

What RISAT IS NOT !!!

RISAT 2020 is not an elimination test like JEE Mains or JEE Advanced. It’s not a replacement of the conventional PCMB Testing as well. RISAT 2020 is merely an add-on metric for the more discerned students as well as Institutions which have chalked out Futuristic Undergraduate Programmes.

What RISAT IS?

RISAT 2020 is a unique assessment to ascertain the awareness, appreciation and application of the various precepts of Science, Arts & Mathematics in the Context of Engineering & Technological Research, Innovation & Entrepreneurship.  

The test is beyond the conventional confines of mere PCMB Testing and draws the Futuristic Frontiers from World Economic Forum, TEDand other leading futuristic think tanks from across… 

It’s a positive and graded assessment test of the contextual learning, understanding and application of the precepts of science, arts and mathematics.

The questions are based on real world scenarios specifically with a focus on the future.   

Where & How to take the Test

The Applicants would be allowed to take the various components of RISAT 2020 from within the comforts of their personal study with no upper time constraint. However, the overall time consumed would be a parameter of evaluation.   

The applicants need to simply have a personal computer with a microphone, webcam and an internet connection.  

The Open Book nature of RISAT 2020 would enable the applicants to refer to their books; internet or even their parents, peers or teachers. However, as a fair use practice, each of this support would need to be documented and declared in the corresponding section of RISAT.   

Pre-Admission Offers

The RISAT 2020 Secretariat would report the RISAT 2020 Scores along with other baseline academic metrics of the applicants to the leading Futuristic Technical Institutions of the country and would thereby try to garner pre-admission offers from 3-5 of them for each applicant in their various programmes.

However, this would not be a guarantee but considering the nature of RISAT 2020, there is a fairly high chance of the same. 

Timelines

The Test Lines shall be open from National Technology Day, 11th of May 2020 to Engineers’ Day, 15th of September 2020 to be able to give a fair spread out chance for all the Aspirational Students.

RISAT 2020 APPLICATION PROCESS

The applications to RISAT 2020 have to be routed through the Participating Schools who in turn would be encouraged to recommend only upto 20 Aspirational Students from the middle bell curve of their class with a Faculty Recommendation in about 200-400 words in the prescribed format.  

RISAT 2020 Coordinator

Each of the Participating Schools would have to appoint a Senior Faculty Member as the RISAT 2020 Coordinator as the Single Point of Contact for all administrative purposes.  

RISAT 2020 STEPS

Step 1 :: Interested Schools Register for RISAT 2020 by appointing a RISAT 2020 Coordinator and filling up the Registration Form below.
