New Update
NTA reopens registration and modification for JEE Main April/May sessions to be conducted from July 20 to August 2

JEE Main 2021 is not only the talk of the town among exam-giving students but everyone. This could be due to the hype that happened during JEE Main April 2020. The continuous postponement due to the pandemic brought the entire education on a standstill. Thus, the education ministry is looking to re-establish the academic year 2021-22.

Last we reported that the NTA will soon announce the JEE Main 2021 dates. The official notification, mentioning the JEE Mains 2021 complete syllabus, exam pattern, registration process, and other information, will come out on the official website. But there's the best bet on the exam pattern and syllabus. NTA has already made it very clear beforehand. Students can use it to prepare for the engineering entrance exam.

JEE Main 2021 Exam pattern

Candidates must have passed the qualifying examination with 50% marks in Mathematics and 50% in aggregate of the QE to sit for BPlan Paper. For BE or BTech, applicants must have passed the qualifying examination with Physics and Mathematics as compulsory subjects along with one of the Chemistry/Biotechnology/ Biology/ Technical Vocational Subject. For BArch, candidates must have passed the Qualifying Examination with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry.

JEE Main 2021 Syllabus

NTA released the JEE Main 2021 syllabus. Although the JEE Main syllabus doesn’t change every year, students are advised to download the complete JEE Main 2021 syllabus from the official website of NTA JEE Main. The syllabus generally comprises Class 11 and Class 12 standard topics from Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. This year, CBSE reduced the Class 11 and 12 syllabi by 30%. Thus, students need to keep an eye on the syllabus. Here's a tentative list from NTA and its official website.
