IIT JEE 2021: FAQs

The full form of JEE is the Join Entrance Examination.

Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) is  conducted for the admission of  engineering  in the National Institutes of Technology (NITs), Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIITs), State Funded Technical Institutes (SFTIs), and Central Funded Technical Institutes (CFTIs). Students give this examination after completing 12th class.

The National Testing Agency has been given the responsibility for conducting JEE Main exam.  All exam related procedures are conducted by NTA authorities.

Candidates who want to apply for admission through JEE Main exam Paper II (B.Arch) should have scored atleast 50% marks separately in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics and also 50% aggregate marks in 10+2th standard (or equivalent) examination. This information has been notified by the  Council of Architecture to the NTA.

The total number of attempts is six times, as the JEE Main exam is held twice a year and the candidates originally have a maximum of three attempts to give JEE Main.

The choice of giving the exam is on the candidate, whether he/she wants to give only one attempt or two is entirely up to them. But if they have attempted both the exams, the best off the two scores will be used for the purpose of ranking in the merit list.

After passing, JEE Main Exam candidates can take admission in NITs, IIITs, SFTIs, and CFITs depending on their score.

Admission in IITs takes place through JEE Advanced exam.But the candidates who qualify JEE Main exam can appear in the JEE Advanced.

There is no minimum percentage required in 12th standard to apply for JEE Main 2020 bout the students need to have passed a minimum of five subjects. However, class 12th percentage is required for admission into different institutes after qualifying JEE Main exam.

Syllabus for JEE Main 

A subject-wise list of all the chapters covered in the syllabus is provided below. The topic-wise weightage of IIT JEE  is highly uncertain, therefore, the students are advised to prepare the entire syllabus without skipping any part or concept. JEE Main syllabus is plotted as per class 11 and class 12 NCERT textbooks to ensure uniformity across the country.

Maths is easy to score if students keep on practicing and developing a good understanding of the basic concepts. Concentrating on the concept of building and enhancing numerical solving skills are vital for the topics covered in Maths which are a perfect blend of simple and complex topics.

It is important to know the exam pattern by which the candidates can prepare accordingly.

The National Testing Agency (NTA) from 2019 onwards has been granted the authority to design and develop the JEE Main syllabus as well as set the exam pattern. Since 2019, a few modifications have been made to the exam pattern for the consecutive years. NTA has yet again introduced some changes. They are as follows.

●     Three papers for JEE Main. Paper 1 for B. E/ B. Tech, Paper 2 for B.Arch, Paper 3 for B.Planning.

●     Paper 1 will now consist of 77 questions where 25 questions will be asked from each section. Earlier the paper had 90 questions in total.

●     Paper 2 is now only set for B.Arch courses. It will consist of 77 questions and the total marks allotted is 400.

●     Paper 3 will consist of 100 questions and the paper will be out of 400 marks.
