Regarding AE exam

Dear Editor,
This is regarding the AE exams. Some salient points:-
1. Why let the students of fourth year B.Tech( civil ) apply for AE posts if the exam is to be conducted during their end sem exams?
2. The students of NERIST and NIT Yupia can still appear for the AE exam but what about the students studying outside the state? Will the APPSC pay for their conveyance for coming for the AE exam and that too in between exams?
3. The AE exam in 2016 was postponed due to conflicting dates with the SSC exam but how do the commission expect the students to leave their final year exams and come for AE exam risking their degree? Even if they get appointed, what is the use if they don’t have their degree at hand?
4. Why only consider the RGU exam dates for the APPSCCE (prelims) and not Nerist and NIT exam dates for the AE exams?
Yours,
An aspirant
