MUMBAI: The education department conducted a trial run of the online admissions process for junior colleges for over 5,000 students at over 50 centres across the city on Sunday. Education minister Radhakrishna Vikhe Patil was present at a demonstration session in Hinduja College, Charni Road. He asked students for their feedback on the system. Some of their suggestions will be incorporated in the website. Maharashtra Knowledge Corporation Limited (MKCL), which has developed the online admission system this year, demonstrated the process to the Std X students.
"Many students were concerned if the server would be able to take the load during admissions. But on Sunday, with over 5,000 students logging in within a period of an hour-and a-half, only 2% of the server capacity was utilised. During actual admissions, even if 25 times the number of students access the server during the same period of time, only 50% of its capacity will be utilised,'' said Aatul Wadegaonkar, general manager of MKCL.
