JEE Mains

About

The Joint Entrance Examination (Main), often known as JEE Main 2022, is an undergraduate entrance exam for B.Tech admissions to 31 NITs, 25 IIITs, and 19 GFTIs. JEE Main is also an eligibility test for JEE Advanced admission to IITs. JEE Main Paper 1 is for admission to B.E./B.Tech programmes, while JEE Main Paper 2A (B.Arch) and JEE Main Paper 2B (B.Planning) are for admission to B.Arch and B.Planning programmes, respectively (B.Planning). Last year, a total of 1,048,012 applicants applied for JEE Main, with 939,008 of them taking the exam. Males made up 728,745 of the total registered candidates, while females made up 319,262. A total of 44 JEE Main 2021 students received a perfect NTA score of 100.
JEE Main 2022 will be held online as a computer-based test with themes based on NCERT books for classes 11 and 12. The JEE Main 2022 Exam Pattern has not changed, but the NTA has altered the JEE marking scheme. Each erroneous numerical answer type question will have a one-point deduction. To assess their exam readiness, candidates must finish the JEE Main 2022 Syllabus and practise the previous year's JEE Main Question Papers. This year, the NTA JEE Main 2022 will be held twice, in June and July. In contrast to the previous year's four attempts, JEE Main 2022 candidates would only get two chances to pass the exam. The All India Rank for B.Tech/B.Arch admissions in India are determined by JEE Main scores. There is no minimum JEE score or cut-off for admission to NITs or IIITs, but candidates must achieve a qualifying percentage to be considered for JEE Advanced and B.Tech admission to IITs. The cutoff for JEE Main 2022 can be greater or lower depending on the total number of applicants that applied, the exam difficulty level, seat availability, and other factors. For the unreserved category, the JEE Main Qualifying Percentile was reduced to 87.899 from 90.37 (in 2020).

NTA will conduct JEE Main 2022 online as a computer-based test with topics based on Class 11 and 12 NCERT books. No new changes have been made to JEE Main 2022 Exam Pattern, but NTA has revised JEE marking scheme. Each incorrect numerical answer type question will also result in a negative marking of 1 mark. Aspirants must complete JEE Main 2022 Syllabus and practice the previous year's JEE Main Question Papers to test their exam prep level.

NTA JEE Main 2022 will be conducted twice this year in June and July. Unlike last year with 4 attempts, JEE Main 2022 aspirants will get only 2 chances to score well in the exam. JEE Main scores will decide the All India Rank for B.Tech/B.Arch admissions in India. There is no minimum JEE marks or cut off for admissions to NITs or IIITs but candidates need to meet the minimum qualifying percentile to be eligible for JEE Advanced and B.Tech admission to IITs. JEE Main 2022 Cut off can be higher or lower depending on the total number of candidates who appeared, the difficulty level of the exam, seat availability, or more.
