JEE Advanced 2025: #Restore3rdAttempt Trends on X; Students Urge JAB to Reinstate 3 Attempt Limit

Students are rallying on X with #Restore3rdAttempt in response to JAB's reversal of the JEE Advanced attempt limit decision. Initially, on November 5, it was announced that starting in 2025, students would have three consecutive attempts at the JEE Advanced exam. However, on November 18, JAB reverted this decision, reducing the attempt limit back to two consecutive years.

This decision has caused significant agitation among the student community, who were hopeful for an additional chance to attempt the JEE Advanced exam and secure IIT admission. Many students who had exhausted their two attempts in 2023 and 2024 were looking forward to taking the exam in 2025 after the three-attempt decision was announced. Reports indicate that several students even left their NIT seats, planning to apply for JEE Advanced 2025 and aim for IIT admissions in the 2025-26 session.

#Restore3rdAttempt and #JEEAdvanced3rdAttempt on X Trends

Candidates have taken to X, tagging PM Narendra Modi, the Education Ministry of India, and IIT Kanpur to express their disappointment. They are demanding an explanation for JAB's recent decision to roll back the attempt limit, which was announced just a few days ago.

 An X user wrote "Honourable @ narendramodi ji! Students who were initially allowed 3 attempts for #JEEAdvanced2025 are now being restricted to just 2 attempts without explanation. This sudden change crushes their hopes & dreams! #Restore3rdAttempt #JEEAdvanced3rdAttempt".

More users have joined in this conversation:

Apart from the change in the attempt limit for JEE Advanced 2025, all other eligibility criteria remain the same. Candidates must qualify the JEE Main exam and rank among the top 2,50,000. They should have passed their Class 12 examination or equivalent either in the previous year or the current year. Additionally, there are age restrictions: general category candidates must be born on or after October 1, 2000, with a five-year relaxation for SC, ST, and PwD candidates.

A:
The Joint Entrance Examination Advanced exam pattern varies each year. There are 2 papers in the Joint Entrance Examination Advanced exam. Paper 1 and Paper 2 of Joint Entrance Examination Advanced will comprise three separate sections wherein questions will be asked from Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics. There will be negative markings for answering any question incorrectly in the Joint Entrance Examination Advanced exam. Medium of the Examination: English and Hindi The main exam will be conducted online through a CBT (computer-based mode). Joint Entrance Examination Advanced consists of 2 papers (Paper 1 and Paper 2), and students have to appear for both papers. The question paper consists of three parts: Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics. Both Paper 1 and Paper 2 will have 3 parts, that are: Part 1: Physics Part 2: Chemistry Part 3: Maths Each part will have 3 sections in both papers 1 and 2: Section 1: This section contains 8 questions. The answer to each question is a Numerical Value. For each question, enter the correct numerical value of the answer using the mouse and the onscreen virtual numeric keypad in the place designated to enter the answer. If the numerical value has more than two decimal places, truncate or round off the value to 2 decimal places. Answers to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme: Full Marks: 3 Marks only if the correct numerical value is entered Zero Marks: 0 In all other cases Section 2: This section contains six questions. Each question has 4 options. One and more than one of these four options is the correct answer. For each question, choose the options corresponding to all the correct answer The answer to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme Full Marks: 4 marks for every correct answer. Partial Marks: 3 marks If all 4 options are correct but only three options are chosen; Partial Marks: 2 marks 3 or more options are correct but only two options are chosen both of which are correct; Partial Marks: 1 If two or more options are correct but only one option is chosen and it is a correct option; Zero Marks: 0 If none of the options is chosen. Negative Marking: 2 Marks will be deducted In all Cases. Section 3: This section contains 4 Matching List Sets. Each set has 1 MCQ. Each set has 2 lists: List-1 and List-2. A list-1 has Four entries 1, 2, 3, or 4, and a List-2 has Five entries (P), (Q), (R), (S), and (T). Four options are given in each MCQ based on List-1 and List-2 and only one of these four options satisfies the condition asked in the MCQ. Answers to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme: Full Marks: 3 Marks only if the option corresponding to the correct combination is chosen; Zero Marks : 0 If none of the options is chosen; Negative Marks: 1 Mark will be deducted in all other cases.

Q:   How do the exam patterns and formats of JEE Main and JEE Advanced compare?

A:
JEE Main and JEE Advanced are both national-level entrance exams conducted for admission to undergraduate engineering programs in India. While JEE Main is the first stage of the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) and is conducted by the National Testing Agency NTA JEE Advanced is the second stage of the exam and is conducted by one of the seven Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) on a rotational basis. Here are the key differences between the exam patterns and formats of JEE Main and JEE Advanced: 1. Number of Papers: JEE Main has two papers - Paper 1 for admission to B.E. /B.Tech courses and Paper 2 for admission to B.Arch/B.Planning courses. On the other hand, JEE Advanced has two papers - Paper 1 and Paper 2, both of which are mandatory. 2. Exam Mode: JEE Main is conducted in both online (Computer Based Test) and offline (Pen and Paper Based Test) modes, while JEE Advanced is conducted only in online mode. 3. Question Types: Both exams have multiple-choice questions (MCQs), but JEE Advanced also includes numerical answer type questions (NATs), where students have to enter the answer in numerical form. 4. Difficulty Level: JEE Main is generally considered easier than JEE Advanced in terms of difficulty level. 5. Syllabus: The syllabus for both exams is similar, but JEE Advanced includes a few additional topics and also requires a deeper understanding of the concepts. 6. Eligibility Criteria: To be eligible for JEE Advanced students must first qualify for JEE Main and be among the top 2,50,000 candidates. 7. Number of Attempts: Students can attempt JEE Main for a maximum of three consecutive years, while JEE Advanced can be attempted for a maximum of two consecutive years.

Q:   What are the important chapters in JEE Mains and JEE Advance that give up to 80% of marks?

A:
JEE Main and JEE Advanced are two of the most competitive engineering entrance exams in India. The syllabus for both exams is vast, but there are certain chapters that carry more weightage than others. Here are some of the most important chapters for JEE Mains and JEE Advanced that can give you up to 80% of the marks: Mathematics: Calculus (Differential and Integral) Algebra (Quadratic Equations, Progressions, Complex Numbers) Coordinate Geometry (Straight Lines, Circles, Conics) Vectors and 3D Geometry Probability and Statistics Physics: Mechanics (Kinematics, Laws of Motion Work, Energy and Power, Rotational Motion) Electrodynamics (Electric Charges and Fields, Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance, Current Electricity Electromagnetic Induction and Alternating Currents) Optics (Geometrical Optics Wave Optics) Modern Physics (Dual Nature of Matter and Radiation, Atoms and Nuclei, Electronic Devices) Chemistry: Physical Chemistry (Basic Concepts, States of Matter Atomic Structure, Chemical Bonding, Equilibrium, Thermodynamics Chemical Kinetics, Electrochemistry) Inorganic Chemistry (Classification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties, Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure, Hydrogen and its Compounds, S-Block Elements, P-Block Elements) Organic Chemistry (Purification and Characterisation of Organic Compounds, Hydrocarbons, Haloalkanes and Haloarenes, Alcohols, Phenols and Ethers, Aldehydes, Ketones and Carboxylic Acids, Organic Compounds Containing Nitrogen) It's important to note that these chapters are not the only ones that will be covered on the exams. It's also essential to have a solid understanding of the other topics and to practice solving a variety of problems to increase your chances of success.
