JEE Main 2025 Exam Overview

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

JEE Main 2025 Last 15 Days Preparation Strategy

The final two weeks before the exam are crucial. Here’s how to optimize this time:

1. Revise Smartly: Focus on revisiting your notes, key formulas, and important concepts again and again. Avoid tackling new topics during this period. Remember, retaining information is more important than adding new information. Regular revision would help you retain whatever you have learned throughout your preparation for a long period with more accuracy.
2. Practice Mock Tests: Take full-length mock exams in a timed setting. Review your performance afterward to identify and work on weaker areas. Mock tests are an essential part of a good preparation strategy, as they will help you identify where you are lacking and where you need to focus more and mitigate the margin of error through practice. However, always try to join an online mock test series that is being organized in a JEE-like simulated environment.
3. Maintain a Balanced Routine: Stick to a balanced schedule, allocate enough time for revision and practice, and ensure that you have enough time for sufficient sleep, healthy meals, and regular breaks to keep your mind relaxed and stress-free.
4. Stay Calm: Engage in relaxation techniques, light exercise, or activities that help you stay composed. Yoga, free-hand exercises, and other extracurricular activities Like art, dance, and music can be very effective tools in reducing mental stress and pressure.
5. Seek Guidance: Do not be egoistic and consider yourself as someone who can solve everything all alone. Reach out to teachers or mentors if you encounter difficulties. Their insights can help you overcome hurdles and stay motivated.
