The exam consists of two primary papers: Paper 1 and Paper 2.

Paper 1 is conducted for candidates who wish to pursue Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) or Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) programmes.


Paper 2 is further divided into two parts:


  • Paper 2A – For candidates seeking admission to Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch) programmes.

  • Paper 2B – For candidates interested in Bachelor of Planning (B.Plan) programmes.


JEE Main is conducted in two sessions each year, giving candidates the opportunity to improve their scores by appearing in both sessions if they choose. The registration process for the examination is conducted entirely online through the official NTA website.


The examination is available in multiple languages, including English, Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, Marathi, Odia, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Gujarati, Assamese, Malayalam, and Punjabi, ensuring accessibility for candidates across different regions of India.
