Questions related to JEE Main

On Question asked by student community

Have a question related to JEE Main ?

As of now, the official chapter-wise weightage for JEE Main 2026 has not been released by the National Testing Agency (NTA). However, based on previous years' data, we can anticipate that the weightage distribution across Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics will remain relatively consistent. For instance, in JEE Main 2025, key topics such as Modern Physics, Thermodynamics, and Organic Chemistry held significant weightage. It's advisable to focus on these high-weightage chapters while also covering the entire syllabus to ensure comprehensive preparation. Once the official weightage for JEE Main 2026 is published, it will provide more precise guidance for targeted study.
