In another major update, the exam pattern for Paper 1 (B.Tech) has been revised -now, the number of numerical value type (NVT) questions in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics have increased from 5 to 10 per subject. This change was made after considering the preference of 70% top-ranking candidates, who preferred numerical-based questions.

Moreover, candidates will now be able to correct their application details for a fee of INR 200. This change is made for the 15% of applicants who made last-minute changes in the past. The registration deadline is very near- the payment will be due by 11:50 PM on 22 November 2024. The exam will be held in two sessions: the first from 22 to 31 January 2025, and the second in April 2025

Can I score 99 percentile in JEE Mains 2025 in 3 months by starting from zero?

S
swathi rajeev

Yes, you can score 99 percentile in JEE Mains 2025 in 3 months even if you are starting from zero. To ace the JEE Mains 2025 exam in 90 days, you must work very hard with constant dedication and focus. First, start learning the most important and repeated topics and concepts in the exam. Focus more on your strong subjects than wasting time on the weak subjects. Make a strategic timetable and stick to it and study for about 6-7 hours daily. Revise the learned concepts regularly, practice about 20-30 sample questions and solve mock papers daily.

I made my SC certificate in 2019 and now I am applying for JEE 2025, so do I have to renew the SC certificate or is the previous certificate valid?

S
swathi rajeev

Before applying for JEE Mains 2025, check the validity of your previous certificate. If the validity of the SC certificate issued in 2019 has not expired, then you can use it for the JEE Mains application. If it is expired, renew the caste certificate and apply using a valid certificate for JEE 2025. Candidates must check the official website of JEE 2025 to learn more about uploading the caste certificate during application.

Clearing JEE exams in 3 months can be difficult but it is possible with correct time stategies, study plan, more importantly, hardwork and dedication. In the remaining time, focus more on difficult subjects and revise the topics you already know. Start solving mock papers and previous year question papers and revise in detail the areas where you are facing problem. Focus mainly on NCERT books and be thorough with it.
