Hello
If you want to practice for JEE Mains exams, then you need to practice by giving mock tests, and for that, you can refer to Careers360.com (//Careers360.com) as it is a single platform for learn practice and implementing. It will help you with mock papers, you can practice them, and know about the level of your studies. You can also practice with previous year papers as they will help you a lot from the Jeemain official website.
Hello
If you are aiming for JEE, both Presidency South and DPS South with Allen integration are solid.
Allen is strong for JEE prep, but the school environment and faculty make a big difference. Check past results and check for the best results among those campuses. Go where you can learn, grab opportunities, and make a competition because surviving is not enough; learning matters. Visit both campuses and then choose where to go.
Based on the latest available guidelines from the National Testing Agency (NTA) and trends from previous years (as of September 25, 2025), I'll address your query step by step. Note that the official JEE Main 2026 notification is expected in late 2025 (likely October-November), so requirements may be confirmed then. However, for 2025, NTA has introduced specific rules for EWS (Economically Weaker Sections) candidates, and these are likely to continue for 2026 with minor updates. Your question focuses on two main parts: (1) Whether NTA requires the EWS certificate number during registration, and (2) The timing for obtaining the certificate (before January 2026 or after April 2026). I'll cover eligibility, validity, and tips as well.
As of now, the official chapter-wise weightage for JEE Main 2026 hasn’t been released by NTA. Based on past data, Physics (Modern Physics, Thermodynamics), Chemistry (Organic Chemistry), and Mathematics show consistent weightage. Focus on these while covering the syllabus.
