India has been at the forefront of engineering and technology. However since the early 1990s with the liberalisation of the trade economy in the country and the aspirations of the American Dream there has been a steady rise in the number of engineers our country is producing every year. Globally the 90s decade marks the beginning of the digitised world. With western companies hiring scores of skilled engineers, it was only a matter of time that engineering became the much sought after qualification by Indian students.

JEE Main 2026 is expected to be held in two sessions. NTA holds the entrance exam in two sessions to provide the following benefits: 

  • Candidates will get two opportunities to improve their scores in the exam if they are not able to give their best in the first attempt. 
  • In the first attempt, the candidates will get a first-hand experience of taking an examination and will know their mistakes which can be improve while attempting the test for the second time. This will reduce the chances of dropping a year and the candidates would not have to waste an entire year.
  • If anyone misses the examination due to reasons beyond control (such as the board examination or health issues), then candidate can appear for the second session. 
  • A candidate is not required to take both the sessions, however, if someone appears in both the sessions, then their best NTA scores will be considered for merit list preparation.

In India, academics is a family subject, parents and relatives play an important role in shaping how and where the child completes their undergraduate and graduate studies. Even today a child’s journey through Class 8 to Class 12 is crafted by what they are good at. If your child has a dominant left brain, meaning is better at maths and science then the option is clear engineering or medicine. While medicine is for those students who have a higher aptitude in life sciences, anatomy and human studies, engineering is for those who show an aptitude for physics, numerals and experiments. This of course can be further divided into various branches of engineering.

This brings us to the question – Why do so many students opt for the coveted engineering degree? The answer lies in fact that though a career in medicine is lucrative at the beginning, the gap between higher salaries narrows as engineers progress in their careers. Higher salaries is equal to a better standard of living, and hence the best possible option.

Hello

Here is the short guidance for you to score well and prepare for JEE

  • Stick to a smart routine – Prioritize high-weightage topics and revise daily with a focused timetable.

  • Solve PYQs & mock tests – Practice like it’s the real thing; analyze mistakes without panic.

  • Quality over quantity – Understand concepts deeply rather than rushing through chapters.

  • Stay healthy & rested – Your brain needs sleep, water, and breaks to perform at its best.

  • Trust your journey – Stay calm, believe in your preparation, and avoid comparing with others.

Hello

Since you’re reappearing for your Class 12 boards in 2026, that will be counted as your official passing year. So, you will be eligible to write JEE Advanced in 2026 and 2027. Although you submitted the boards in 2025, that attempt won’t be considered due to the compartment. JEE Advanced rules allow 2 attempts in 2 consecutive years after passing 12th. So you still have both chances left, which is great! Just make sure you meet the other eligibility conditions too. Keep your focus strong, you’ve got this!

Thank you

Hello aspirant,

Start with NCERT in every subject for JEE Main.  For physics, use H.C. Verma and D.C. Pandey; for chemistry, use R.C. Mukherjee and O.P. Tandon; and for mathematics, use R.D. Sharma or Cengage.  J.D. Lee assists with inorganic chemistry, while Morrison & Boyd assists with organic chemistry.  Practice chapter-by-chapter Arihant or MTG past year's papers.  For efficient preparation, concentrate on clear concepts, frequent revision, and passing practice exams.

Thank you

Hello,

Generally an income certificate isn't required for the JEE Main registration, but if you want to claim the EWS quota, then you need this. You must provide the certificate, issued by a government authority, as proof of your family's income being below the specified limit for the reservation category you wish to apply under.

I hope it will clear your query!!
