We note that total applications in 5 years amounts to 1033598 from the table. What happened to all these booklets (though used for a few weeks) given to the candidates?  What does Anna University do with the unsold applications? Think about the unused OMR sheets (few lakhs) and the scanning work necessary in the current method of TNEA admission.  In the cloud computing era does the sale of applications for a cost has any meaning?  Support an open access system for the admission information and the fee structure to the aspiring engineering students. An archive of the admission related data must available in all public and school libraries.
