COVID-19 i.e. coronavirus has rapidly spread across the world including India. At present, India has 258 positive cases and the situation is getting alarming day by day. This widespread outbreak of coronavirus has resulted in almost a complete shutdown and lock down in the country, the government has closed schools, colleges, cinemas, malls, etc. till March 31. The government is trying every possible thing to combat the situation like observing Janata Curfew on March 22. Along with all these steps, the coronavirus outbreak has led to postponement of various engineering entrance exams and JEE Main is one of them. Because of COVID-19 , the National Testing Agency has announced to postpone JEE Main 2020 which was scheduled to be conducted on April 5, 7, 8, 9 and 11. Now the exam will be conducted in the last week of May.
NTA permits candidates to take the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main up to six times over a three-year period.
Now, as the exam has been postponed, the entire schedule of the April session of the exam will be changed and the new schedule will be announced with the new exam dates.
As coronavirus is spreading rapidly, speculations are being made if authorities can conduct JEE Main 2020 exam through homes. It can be said if the conditions get worse, authorities may resort to the alternative of conducting the exam through homes. The exam is already being conducted as a computer-based exam. However, this can be adopted as a last resort.
Although COVID-19 is at an alarming stage but there is a very little possibility that JEE Main 2020 is cancelled. The authorities will try to conduct the exam in every possible way as the January session has already been conducted. So, it is almost not possible that the authorities will cancel the exam.
Candidates who were to appear for the April session of JEE Main 2020 can convert this postponement of the exam in a positive way. Candidates can utilise this time to make their preparations for the exam stronger. Following the given tips can help the candidates to ace the exam-
Practice Mock Tests and Sample Papers- Candidates must practice more and more JEE Main sample papers and mock tests to increase their speed and time management. These mock tests and sample papers will also help the candidates to analyse their performance and they can work on their mistakes.
Follow a time table- Candidates should prepare a time-table to take up topics that they think need more time. Candidates can divide the available time to all such topics. This will boost the JEE Main preparation of the candidates.
Make short notes- Candidates should make short and handy notes for important formulas and concepts. These handy notes can help the candidates in memorising them easily.
Revise- As revision is an important factor to ace any exam, candidates must revise everything they have studied for the exam.
Stay Healthy- At last, candidates must take care of themselves and stay healthy. Candidates must take proper precautions to fight the coronavirus.

Hello,
You should select Jharkhand for the JEE Mains application form because you will be reappearing in the exam as a private candidate in Jharkhand. The state you will be appearing in and your passing year are what you should fill in your JEE Mains application form, but not your 12th class state.
Hope it helps!!!
Hello Aspirant
If you want to get into IIT for AI Engineering, then you should definitely choose Pure Mathematics in Class 11–12. Applied Maths won’t help in JEE because IIT entrance exams use advanced math concepts. Pure Maths will build your problem-solving skills and cover everything needed for JEE Main and Advanced. It also prepares you better for AI, Data Science, and Coding in college. So for your dream of AI engineering at IIT, Pure Maths is the right and safest choice.
That's an excellent resource for targeted, efficient practice!
The JEE Main Chapter-Wise Previous Year Questions (PYQs) is one of the most effective study tools because it allows you to:
Identify High-Weightage Areas: Pinpoint chapters frequently tested in previous exams.
Understand Pattern: Master the specific style and depth of questions asked by NTA.
Improve Speed & Accuracy: Practice time management by solving questions sequentially.
You can download the PDF containing these essential chapter-wise questions (organized by Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics) right here: https://engineering.careers360.com/download/ebooks/jee-main-chapter-wise-pyqs . Start integrating these into your daily study plan
Hi there,
You should take pure mathematics if you want to pursue AI engineering at IIT after JEE, because the syllabus of JEE Advanced is based on pure mathematics, so it will help you to have a strong base foundation in the concepts. You can perform well in your exam.
Hope it helps!!!
