The total questions in JEE Mains exam varies for Paper 1 and Paper 2. Now the revised JEE Main exam pattern for Paper 1 consists of the same number of questions as was the case before the COVID 19 pandemic. There will be 75 questions in total in the JEE Main paper 1 exam, all of which are compulsory to attempt.
The optional numeric value questions have been rolled back now. Therefore in JEE Main paper 1 exam, candidates will have to attempt 20 questions from the general MCQ part and all 5 given questions from the numerical value part.
As we know, the exam pattern of the JEE Main paper 1 and paper 2 varies, so does the total questions in both the papers. The total questions in the JEE Main Paper 2A ( for B.Architecture) is 77 while the total number of questions in JEE Main Paper 2B (for B.Planning) is 100. The total number of questions have been reduced by 5 as the optional questions from section B has been removed. The exam paper is divided into three sections in both these exam papers.
The JEE Main 2025 Exam will be held in CBT Mode with three papers. Paper 1 is for Bachelor of Engineering/Bachelor of Technology, while Papers 2A and 2B are for Bachelor of Architecture and Bachelor of Planning, respectively. The total marks for JEE Main 2025 vary by paper.
The total marks for the B.E./B. Tech papers are 300. The total number of marks for the B.Arch and B.Planning papers is 400. The section-wise distribution of JEE Main total marks for all three examinations is shown here for candidates’ convenience.

To help them study and devote equal attention to key sections of the course, it is crucial to understand the exam’s weight. The three main subjects of physics, chemistry, and mathematics are included in the extensive JEE Mains syllabus. However, not every subject is equally significant. In mathematics, calculus and algebra are crucial, whereas in physics, topics like mechanics, electricity, and magnetism are important.
The three primary areas of chemistry are physical, organic, and inorganic; the majority of the courses offered here concentrate on organic chemistry and chemical bonding. Although the weighting varies annually, students can solve prior years’ papers to identify areas of desperation for a greater understanding. As a result, high-weightage themes allow for the achievement of maximum scores.

JEE Mains 2025 will be held to determine admission to undergraduate (UG) programs offered by JEE Main 2025 participating institutes. According to recent sources, the Aadhaar card is not required to apply for this exam. General category candidates must score at least 75% in their Class 12 exams or be in the top 20 percentile in their qualifying exam to be eligible for JEE Mains 2025. This requirement is crucial for gaining entry into IITs, NITs, IIITs, and other CFTIs.
Candidates from reserved categories need at least 65% marks to be eligible for entry to undergraduate programs at IITs, NITs, IIITs, and other CFTIs. This guarantees a just and inclusive selection process that is determined by academic achievements. Candidates should read the next section for more information on the JEE Mains eligibility criteria 2025 qualifying exams.
The JEE Main 2025 caters to B.Tech, B.Arch, and B.Plan programs, each having unique subject requirements.
Candidates must be required to have Physics and Mathematics as core subjects, as well as one other subject chosen from Chemistry, Biology, or a Technical Vocational Subject.
Completion of Class 12, or passing an equivalent exam with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics is necessary for appear for the exam.
Candidates must have studied Mathematics in their Class 12 or equivalent exam.
Individuals who cleared the Class 12/equivalent examination in 2023, 2024, or who are scheduled to take the Class 12/equivalent examination in 2025 are eligible to take the JEE (Main) – 2025. While the attempt limit for IIT is one year less than the JEE Mains. That is, only those students can appear for the JEE Advanced 2025 exam who have passed their class 12th or equivalent exam in 2024 or are going to do so in 2025.
There is no upper age limit for applicants taking JEE Mains 2025. As per the notice, For appearing in the JEE (Main) – 2025, there is no age limit for the candidates. The candidates who have passed the class XII / equivalent examination in 2023, and 2024 or appearing in 2025 irrespective of their age can appear in the JEE (Main) – 2025 examination. However, the candidates may be required to fulfill the age criteria of the Institute(s) to which they are desirous of taking admission
Students are allowed a maximum of three consecutive JEE Main attempts (JEE Main 2025 Attempts). The first attempt is made soon after the Class 12 board exam, and the subsequent tries are made in consecutive years. Because the exam will be held twice a year, a candidate will be able to take it six times.
Let’s take a look at the JEE Mains Eligibility Criteria 2025 for Droppers.
State code of eligibility means the code of the State from where the candidate has passed the Class XII (or equivalent) qualifying examination by virtue of which the candidate becomes eligible to appear in JEE (Main) – 2025. It is important to note that the State code of eligibility does NOT depend upon the native place or the place of residence of the candidate.
For example, if a candidate appears for the Class XII(or equivalent) qualifying examination from an Institution situated in New Delhi and is a resident of Noida, Uttar Pradesh, then the candidate’s State code of eligibility will be Delhi and NOT Uttar Pradesh. We have looked into the NTA JEE Main state of eligibility here.

Congratulations to our UVions for proving UV is the Best...
Great Physicist whose contribution will be there in our hearts for ever..
However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. It matters that you don't just give up
Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.
The task is not to see what has never been seen before, but to think what has never been thought before about what you see everyday.
Success can come to you by courageous devotion to the task lying infront of you. I am the master of my failure.... If I never fail how will I ever learn.
Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.
