>> Questions asked from below given important topics
Physics-
2 Questions from Ray Optics
2 Questions from Projectile motion
2 Questions from Unit and Dimension
1 question from Logic gate
1 question from relative motion
1 question from Fluid Mechanics
Maths-
Vector & 3D Geometry: 3 questions
Integration: 2 questions
Differential Equations: 1 question
Matrices: 1 question

Circles: 2 questions
Limits & Continuity: 1 question
Chemistry-
1 question was asked from General Organic Chemistry
2 questions were asked from Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure
1-2 questions from Coordination Compounds.
1 question was asked from Electrochemistry based on cell equation.
1 question was from Biomolecules based on the Structure of Complex Carbohydrates.
Before diving into the analysis, here are some quick tips to help students appearing in upcoming shifts:
Manage Time Wisely: Distribute study hours for subjects by aligning time duration with subjects that match your stronger areas. You should limit your attention to one question at a time for thorough practice.
Focus on NCERT for Chemistry: The majority of Chemistry exam questions focus primarily on NCERT material therefore your understanding of the basics needs to be strong. The Organic Chemistry section requires focused attention on both mechanisms and reactions.
Prioritize Accuracy Over Speed: In Physics and Mathematics, you should work on fewer questions with precision rather than rush through several questions achieving partial accuracy.
Revise Formulas and Key Concepts: Students who understand their formulas well in mathematics combined with physics sections of the exam will get time benefits during testing.
Stay Calm and Composed: One hard question should not shake your confidence level during the exam. Work on questions that you feel comfortable handling.

Hello aspirant,
In order to prepare for the JEE Main 2026 exam, it is strongly advised that students complete the JEE Main 2025 Question Paper. This will help them comprehend the exam's difficulty level and question kinds. The JEE Main 2026 session 1 test will be administered by NTA from January 21 to 30, while the session 2 exam will take place from April 2 to 9.

With a BC-E category certificate, EWS certificate, and Telangana home-state quota, your chances of getting admission to AIML or related CSE branches in CBIT, VNR VJIET, or similar top private colleges in Telangana depend mainly on your JEE Main percentile and the TS EAMCET counselling process, because these colleges fill seats through both TS EAMCET ranks and JEE Main scores (Category-B seats).
For Category-A seats (through TS EAMCET), JEE Main percentile is not considered. Admission is purely based on your TS EAMCET rank, reservation category, gender, and home-state status. CBIT and VNR are highly competitive, especially for AIML, CSE, and IT branches, so you generally need a very strong TS EAMCET rank (usually within a few thousand for BC-E candidates, sometimes slightly relaxed for girls).
For Category-B seats (JEE Main quota), JEE Main percentile matters. Based on recent trends, to have a realistic chance:
For CBIT (AIML / CSE / IT), a JEE Main percentile of around 95+ is usually expected, even for reserved categories, because Category-B seats are limited and competition is high.
For VNR VJIET (AIML / CSE / IT), candidates with 92–95 percentile sometimes have chances, depending on availability and the specific branch.
If your percentile is below 90, getting AIML or core CSE in CBIT or VNR becomes difficult, but you may still have chances in slightly lower-demand branches (like ECE, EEE, or emerging specialisations) or in other good private colleges affiliated with JNTU or autonomous institutions.
Your BC-E and EWS certificates do help mainly in TS EAMCET counselling (Category-A seats), not significantly in Category-B (JEE Main) admissions, where merit largely dominates. Home-state status is already assumed for these colleges, so there is no extra advantage beyond eligibility.
In summary, if your JEE Main percentile is 95 or above, you can reasonably target AIML/CSE in VNR and possibly CBIT through Category-B. If it is 90–94, VNR or related branches are more realistic than CBIT. Below that, it is better to focus on TS EAMCET performance or consider other reputed Telangana colleges offering AIML. If you want, you can share your exact JEE Main percentile and TS EAMCET rank, and I can give you a more precise college- and branch-wise estimate.
