JEE Question Papers

About JEE (Main) - 2024 The Joint Entrance Examination, JEE (Main) comprises two papers.

JEE Arch- Joint Entrance Exam for Bachelor in Architecture is conducted to measure the aptitude of the applicant for admission to Undergraduate  Architecture Programs at IITs, NITs, SPAs and other centrally funded technical institutions, Institutions funded by several participating state Governments and other  Institutions.

Paper 1 is conducted for admission to Undergraduate Engineering Programs (B.E/B.Tech.) at NITs, IIITs, other Centrally Funded Technical Institutions (CFTIs), and Institutions/Universities funded/recognized by participating State Governments. JEE (Main) is also an eligibility test for JEE (Advanced), which is conducted for admission to IITs.

Paper 2 is conducted for admission to B. Arch and B. Planning courses in the country.

Number of Sessions JEE (Main) – 2024

It is being conducted in Two Sessions (January/April). A candidate has the option to apply for one Session or both Sessions (Session 1 and Session 2 of 2024) together and pay the exam fee accordingly. In other words, if a candidate wishes to apply only for one Session, he/she has to pay the Examination Fee only for that Session during the current application period and will have the opportunity to apply again for Session 2 (April 2024).
