Questions related to JEE Advanced

On Question asked by student community

Have a question related to JEE Advanced ?

Hello,

You passed your Class 12 (Intermediate) from UP Board in 2024 .
As per JEE Advanced rules , a candidate can appear only in the year of Class 12 passing and the next consecutive year

  • Eligible years for you were 2024 and 2025

  • You already appeared in 2025

  • 2026 is not allowed

Your health issue does not change this rule.

You can still take JEE Main again in 2026 , but not JEE Advanced.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

Yes, many IITs now offer specialization BTech programs in AI and data science/engineering, separate from core CSE, while also providing AI/ML/robotics as electives or minors within CSE/other branches, with admission via JEE Advanced, but you'll find specific "robotics engineering" branches more at institutions like IITs/NITs, though IITs integrate robotics in AI/CSE.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello murali

No, your son is not eligible for OBC NCL for IIT JEE because you fall in the "creamy layer" occupational category, regardless of your current employment status or family income. Students whose family income is less than Rs. 8 lakhs annually and they are not belong to the "creamy layer".

Note -

  • Children of professionals like doctors, lawyers, and engineers, as well as government officials in Group A and Group B services, are generally considered in the "Creamy layer" category.
  • Your current unemployment does not change your occupational status. The eligibility is based on your profession, not your current job status.

Thank You
