The National Testing Agency (NTA) will conduct JEE Main 2025 in two sessions. The first session is set for January 22, 23, 24, 28, 29, and 30, 2025, while the second session will take place in April 2025. This two-session format gives candidates an opportunity to improve their performance if needed.
JEE Main serves as the entrance exam for prestigious engineering institutions such as NITs, IIITs, and CFTIs. It is also the qualifying exam for JEE Advanced, which is required for admission to IITs. The top 2,50,000 candidates from JEE Main will be eligible to appear for JEE Advanced 2025.
With around 1.2 million candidates expected to take the exam, competing across more than 400 centers in India and 25 centers abroad, having a well-structured preparation plan and maintaining discipline are crucial for success
The final two weeks before the exam are crucial. Here’s how to optimize this time:

On Question asked by student community
Hello,
Your OBC-NCL certificate issued in June 2024 will not be accepted for JEE Main or JEE Advanced reservation. For these exams, the OBC-NCL certificate must be issued on or after 1 April 2025 . So yes, there will be an issue if you use the June 2024 certificate.
What you should do:
Apply for a new OBC-NCL certificate with an issue date of 1 April 2025 or later.
At the time of form filling, if the portal asks for the certificate and you do not have the new one yet, you can upload the self-declaration format (the exam authorities usually allow this). Later, during counselling or document verification, you must show the updated certificate.
Since your Aadhaar has mistakes in name and DOB, make sure it gets updated before the exam application and counselling. Wrong Aadhaar details can cause mismatch issues.
So, get your Aadhaar corrected and plan to get a fresh OBC-NCL certificate after 1 April 2025. This will prevent any problem during verification.
Hope it helps !
Hello Satyam,
Yes, your EWS certificate is valid.
In Bihar, the EWS certificate can be issued by the Circle Officer, BDO, SDO, or DM. So a certificate signed by the Circle Officer (Revenue Officer) is acceptable.
If the format of your certificate is the same as the Central Government EWS format, then it is valid for JEE Main registration and also for JoSAA counselling. The heading “Government of Bihar” does not create any problem.
Just remember one point:
For
JoSAA 2026
, you will need an EWS certificate issued on or after 1 April 2025. Even if your current certificate works for registration, you must update it before counselling.
Hope it helps !
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 -
Thank You
Hello,
You can fill the JEE Main form even if you are a private candidate
Write the
name of the school/board from where you are appearing as a private candidate
.
If your Class 12 admit card or registration slip shows a school/centre name, use that exactly.
If your board lists you as a “Private Candidate” under the board name , then write:
CBSE – Private Candidate
(or your board name – Private Candidate)
Use the pin code of the examination centre/school mentioned on your Class 12 private candidate admit card or registration details.
If your board does not give any school address and only shows the regional office address, then use the regional office address pin code given by your board.
Hope it helps !
Hello Aspirant
You should not leave the OBC-NCL certificate ID blank in the JEE Main form it can create problems later.
NTA wants the certificate details while filling the form, not just at counselling. If you can, apply for the OBC-NCL certificate immediately so you get the ID on time.
If you fail to submit the certificate during counselling, your category will shift to General. It’s safer to enter OBC-NCL only if you’re sure you’ll get the certificate before counselling.
Hope it will help you
