As soon as I saw Himalya post announcing the AESI results, I downloaded the pdf of results. Seeing the numbers, the statistician in me was not able to resist playing with that data.
So with few tinkering and re grouping, I tried answering these following questions i had in mind looking at the data.
- What is the highest no Pass in any subject in section A and B?
- What are the top 3 top scoring subjects in Section A ?
- What are the top 3 top scoring subjects in Section B ?
- What are the top 3 low scoring subject in Section A ?
- What are the top 3 low scoring subject in Section B ?
- Avionic 1 or 2 which one is more scoring?
- Propulsion 1 or Propulsion 2 which one scores more ?
- Which elective subject is most and least scoring?
- What are the top scores of each subject?
- Which subject gets most borderline score in section A/Section B ?
- Which subjects are easy and scoring?
Before you look at the data, some usage explanation.
- Max Mark is maximum marks score in that subject
- 75% got this means that 75% of the students who appeared in that paper scored more than this.
- % of 50 represents the percentage of students of total appeared who got just 50, the minimum score to pass.
- No of pass is the number of students who cleared the subject.
| Top scoring subjects in Section A | max marks | 75 % got this | % of 50 | no of pass |
| STRENGTH OF MATERIALS | 91 | 65.3 | 20.31% | 128 |
| ENGINEERING THERMODYNAMICS | 87 | 63.0 | 23.47% | 98 |
| ENGINEERING DRAWING AND DESIGN | 79 | 61.0 | 25.17% | 143 |
| APPLIED MATHEMATICS – I | 97 | 61.0 | 31.82% | 110 |
Applied Math 1 and Strength of Material got the top marks
For me top scoring means not the top marks but the subject that 75% of students got high marks.
| Low scoring Subjects in Section A | max marks | 75 % got this | % of 50 | no of pass |
| MICROPROCESSOR AND SOFTWARE ENGINEERING | 56 | 53 | 53.42% | 73 |
| INTRODUCTION TO AERONAUTICS | 76 | 56 | 38.04% | 92 |
| FLUID MECHANICS | 81 | 57.5 | 35.71% | 70 |
| WORKSHOP TECHNOLOGY | 72 | 59 | 24.48% | 143 |
MICROPROCESSOR AND SOFTWARE ENGINEERING got the lowest score and more than 53% of students who appeared got just 50.
| Most Popular Elective subject | Number |
| GAS DYNAMICS | 124 |
| PRINCIPLES OF HELICOPTER ENGINEERING | 3 |
| CAD - CAM | 3 |
| AIR NAVIGATION | 1 |
| COMPOSITE MATERIALS | 1 |
| Most scoring Elective | max marks | 75 % got this | % of 50 | no of pass |
| CAD - CAM | 84 | 83 | 0.00% | 3 |
| PRINCIPLES OF HELICOPTER ENGINEERING | 71 | 64.5 | 0.00% | 3 |
| GAS DYNAMICS | 90 | 64 | 15.32% | 124 |
Gas dynamics maybe the most popular elective, but CAD-CAM is the highest scorer. Minimum score is close to 80.
| Top scoring subjects in Section B | max marks | 75 % got this | % of 50 | no of pass |
| APPLIED MATHEMATICS – II | 94 | 79 | 4.90% | 143 |
| AIRCRAFT INSTRUMENTS | 79 | 69 | 3.45% | 29 |
| AIRCRAFT STRUCTURES – II | 86 | 67 | 8.91% | 101 |
| AERODYNAMICS | 81 | 66.5 | 8.39% | 143 |
| AIRCRAFT STRUCTURES – I | 84 | 65 | 9.90% | 101 |
APPLIED MATHEMATICS – II is the top scorers in section B. Top marks close to 80. And i am happy to see that the core subjects of Aeronautics feature in the top scorers
| Low scoring Subjects in Section B | max marks | 75 % got this | % of 50 | no of pass |
| PROPULSION – I | 65 | 50 | 87.50% | 40 |
| AIRCRAFT MATERIALS | 53 | 52.25 | 25.00% | 4 |
| AVIONICS – II | 66 | 56 | 16.67% | 24 |
| PROPULSION – II | 68 | 57 | 14.58% | 48 |
| AIRWORTHINESS AND AIR REGULATIONS | 59 | 58.5 | 0.00% | 2 |
Propulsion 1 is the lowest scorer. 87% of those who appeared got 50.
Sad to see Propulsion, my stream in the top 5 low scorers.
| Most Popular Subjects of Section B | Number of pass |
| AERODYNAMICS | 143 |
| APPLIED MATHEMATICS – II | 143 |
| MANAGEMENT OF SYSTEMS | 140 |
| AIRCRAFT DESIGN | 123 |
| AIRPLANE PERFORMANCE, STABILITY & CONTROL | 117 |
| AIRCRAFT STRUCTURES – I | 101 |
| AIRCRAFT STRUCTURES – II | 101 |
