What is JEE Main 2026?

JEE Main is a national-level engineering entrance exam conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA). It is the primary gateway for admission to NITs, IIITs, and other centrally funded technical institutes (CFTIs) across India.

It also acts as the qualifying exam for JEE Advanced, which is required for admission into the IITs.

The exam is held twice a year, usually in January and April. Students can attempt both sessions, and only the best score is considered for ranking.

In 2026, more than 16 lakh students registered, making it one of the most competitive exams in the country.

JEE Main 2026 Eligibility Criteria

JEE Main keeps its eligibility rules relatively flexible compared to JEE Advanced. The conditions mainly revolve around your Class 12 timeline, subject combination, and how many times you’ve already appeared for the exam.

Academic Requirements & Subjects

Your eligibility depends on when you completed Class 12. You can appear for JEE Main in the year you pass your board exams and for the next two years after that. This creates a three-year window. For example, a student who passed in 2024 remains eligible through 2026, while someone who finished Class 12 earlier falls outside this window.

For the B.E./B.Tech paper, your Class 12 must include Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. These subjects are non-negotiable because the exam is built entirely around them.

Attempts, Age Limit & IIT Restriction

JEE Main does not impose an upper age limit. As long as you fall within the valid attempt window, you can apply.

You can take the exam over three consecutive years, with two sessions each year, giving you up to six attempts in total.

The rules become stricter when it comes to JEE Advanced. Only those who qualify JEE Main can appear, and that too for two consecutive years with a maximum of two attempts. If you have already secured admission in an IIT, you cannot appear for JEE Advanced again, although JEE Main itself does not enforce the same restriction.

Class 12 Marks for JoSAA Counselling

Getting a JEE Main rank is only one part of the process. For admission through JoSAA, you must either score at least 75% marks in Class 12 or be placed in the top 20 percentile of your board.

For candidates from SC, ST, and PwD categories, the minimum required marks are 65%.

JEE Main Exam Pattern

The exam pattern remains consistent across both sessions. The 2026 pattern continues the removal of optional questions, which means every question must be attempted.

JEE Main Eligibility Criteria 2026

The National Testing Agency (NTA) has outlined the JEE Main 2026 eligibility criteria on its official website. Candidates must carefully check these conditions before applying. In general, students who have passed Class 12 in 2024 or 2025, or are appearing in 2026, are eligible to apply for the exam.

The eligibility criteria cover key factors such as educational qualification, required subjects, age limit, number of attempts, and nationality. There is no age limit for appearing in JEE Main, but candidates can attempt the exam for three consecutive years after passing Class 12.

To be eligible, candidates must have studied Physics and Mathematics, along with one additional subject like Chemistry/Biology/Technical Vocational subject in Class 12 or equivalent.

Overall, understanding these eligibility rules is important to avoid rejection during the application process and to ensure you meet all requirements set for JEE Main 2026.

JEE Main 2026 Eligibility - Overview

A quick overview of the key eligibility rules provides a clear snapshot of application eligibility and the number of attempts allowed for JEE Main 2026.

Criteria	Details
Conducting Body	National Testing Agency (NTA)
Age Limit	No upper age limit
Qualifying Exam	Class 12 or equivalent
Eligible Passing Years	2024, 2025, 2026
Subjects Required	Physics, Mathematics + one (Chemistry/Biology/Technical)
Number of Attempts	3 consecutive years
Sessions per Year	2 (January & April)
Marks Requirement	No minimum marks for JEE Main (but required for admission)

JEE Main Age Limit 2026

There is no upper or lower age limit for JEE Main 2026. Anyone who has passed Class 12 in 2024 or 2025, or is appearing in 2026, can apply, no matter their age. However, some institutes such as NITs, IIITs, and other colleges may have their own age rules for admission.

Nationality Criteria

Indian citizens, NRIs, OCIs, PIOs, and foreign nationals can apply for JEE Main. Nationality is not a restriction, but admission to institutes like NITs and IIITs may follow different quotas or schemes for international candidates.

No. of Attempts in JEE Main

The National Testing Agency (NTA) allows candidates to appear for JEE Main for three consecutive years, starting from the year they pass Class 12 or appear for the exam. Since JEE Main is conducted twice every year (January and April sessions), this allows a maximum of six attempts in total.

For example, if a student passes Class 12 in 2026, they can attempt JEE Main in 2026, 2027, and 2028, with two chances each year. There is no age limit, but candidates must meet the Class 12 eligibility year criteria to use all available attempts.

JEE Advanced Number of Attempts Allowed

Candidates can appear for the JEE Advanced exam a maximum of two times in two consecutive years. This means a student gets only two chances within the eligibility window after completing Class 12 or its equivalent. For example, if a candidate appears for JEE Advanced in the first eligible year, they can attempt it once more in the following year. No candidate can appear for JEE Advanced more than two times. These two attempts must be in back-to-back years, as per the official eligibility rules that have remained the same over the years.

Marks Eligibility Criteria

For admission to top engineering institutes through JEE Main, candidates must also meet the Class 12 marks criteria set by the authorities at the time of admission (not for appearing in the exam). General category candidates are required to secure at least 75% marks in Class 12 or be in the top 20 percentile of their respective board exams. For candidates belonging to SC/ST categories, the minimum requirement is 65% marks in Class 12 or top 20 percentile.

It is important to note that this marks criterion is mainly applicable for admission into institutes such as NITs, IIITs, and CFTIs. A candidate can still appear for JEE Main even if they do not meet this percentage requirement, but admission will depend on fulfilling this condition at the time of counselling.

JEE Main Class 12 Subject Requirements

For JEE Main, the Class 12 subject combination varies depending on the course a candidate is applying for. The National Testing Agency (NTA) specifies different academic requirements for B.Tech, B.Arch, and B.Plan programmes to ensure students have the right foundational knowledge.

For B.Tech (Paper 1): Candidates must have studied Physics and Mathematics as compulsory subjects, along with at least one additional subject such as Chemistry, Biology, or a Technical Vocational subject.
For B.Arch (Paper 2A): Candidates should have completed Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM) as core subjects.
For B.Plan (Paper 2B): The key requirement is Mathematics in Class 12, along with passing the qualifying examination.

State Code of Eligibility for JEE Main

The State Code of Eligibility in JEE Main refers to the state from which a candidate has passed their Class 12 (or equivalent) examination. This code is important for seat allocation under the Home State and Other State quota in institutions like NITs, IIITs, and other CFTIs.

It is crucial to understand that the state code is not based on your place of birth, residence, or domicile. Instead, it depends strictly on the location of the board or institution from where you completed your qualifying exam.

For example, if a student studies and passes Class 12 from Delhi but lives in Bihar, their state code of eligibility will be Delhi.

In specific cases:

NIOS candidates should select the state based on the location of their study centre.
If a candidate passes Class 12 in one state and later appears for improvement in another, the original passing state will be considered.
Students who complete Class 12 from Nepal or Bhutan must choose their state code based on the permanent address in their passport.
OCI/PIO candidates who pass Class 12 from India follow the same rules as Indian students, while those studying abroad are generally considered under the Other State/All India quota.

Choosing the correct state code is essential, as it directly affects admission opportunities under different quotas.

Chemistry Syllabus for JEE Main 2027

The JEE Main Chemistry syllabus covers three major branches: Physical Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry. It tests students' understanding of chemical concepts, numerical problem-solving, reaction-based applications, and factual knowledge across Class 11 and Class 12 topics.

Chemistry is often considered a scoring subject because many questions are based on fundamental concepts and NCERT content. However, the difficulty and question patterns can vary across exam sessions. Organic Chemistry requires a clear understanding of reaction mechanisms, reagents, conversions, and named reactions, while Physical and Inorganic Chemistry demand a combination of conceptual clarity, numerical practice, and thorough revision.

The NTA syllabus contains 20 Chemistry units. Students should prepare all three branches rather than assume that they will receive equal weightage in the examination.

How Does the JEE Main Group Test Work?

The idea is simple: choose a test, bring your group together, take the test at the scheduled time, and use the results to understand your performance.

You can either create your own Group Test or join one hosted by another participant.

Host or Join a Test

If you want to organise a test for your study group, you can host a Group Test and invite your friends or peers.

If someone has already created a Group Test, you can join through the invitation link and 8-digit Group Test code shared by the host.

Schedule the Test

The host chooses the date and time for the Group Test and shares the details with the participants.

A Group Test must be scheduled at least 5 minutes before its start time, giving participants enough time to join and prepare.

Join and Attempt the Test

Once the scheduled test begins, participants attempt the same test within the specified duration.

You can focus on solving the questions accurately while managing the clock and deciding how much time to spend on each question.

Compare Your Performance

After the test, you can see how your performance compares with the other participants.

The leaderboard gives you a quick view of your position in the group, while available performance insights provide more detail about your test attempt.

Compete for the Prize Pool

Every Group Test includes a Prize Pool.

Participant enrolment fees form the Prize Pool, which is distributed according to the applicable prize and ranking rules of the Group Test.

This gives you something extra to compete for while keeping the main purpose of the test focused on practice and performance.

Receive Your Prize

After the results are declared, the prize is processed according to the applicable Group Test rules.

If there is no result challenge, the eligible prize amount is credited to the participant's Vidyx wallet 24 hours after the results are declared.

If a result is challenged, the prize is processed after the review is completed according to the applicable rules.

How Can Group Tests Help With JEE Main Preparation?

JEE Main group study can add a different dimension to individual preparation. Studying and practising with friends or peers can help you compare different approaches, stay accountable, discuss mistakes, and build a more consistent testing routine.

Improve Speed and Accuracy

Timed tests help you understand how quickly you solve questions and how often speed affects your accuracy.

Over multiple tests, you can start noticing patterns in your approach — for example, questions where you spend too much time or situations where rushing leads to mistakes.

Compare Your Progress With Peers

Taking the same test as your friends gives you a common reference point.

You can compare your performance with other participants and use the result as one more benchmark while tracking your preparation.

Learn From Different Approaches

Two students can arrive at the correct answer using completely different methods.

Discussing questions after a Group Test can expose you to different ways of approaching a problem and help you understand mistakes that you may have missed while studying alone.

Build a Regular Testing Routine

It can be easier to maintain a testing routine when you have a fixed time with your study group.

You can schedule regular Group Tests, practise together, review your results, and use what you learn to prepare for the next test.

JEE Main Group Test vs Regular JEE Main Mock Test

A regular JEE Main mock test is useful when you want to practise individually and check your own performance.

A JEE Main Group Test adds a shared testing experience, allowing you to take the same test with friends or peers and compare your performance after the test.

Regular JEE Main Mock Test	Vidyx JEE Main Group Test
Individual practice	Practice with friends or a study group
Focus on your own result	Compare performance with other participants
