Here is a detailed analysis of the JEE Main previous year analysis:
Calculus:
Differentiation and Integration: Calculus continued to dominate the Mathematics section in 2024. Questions on differentiation (maxima and minima, tangents, rate of change) and integration (definite integrals, areas under curves) were commonly asked. In addition, application-based questions from topics like differential equations were seen.
Definite Integrals and Area under Curves: These topics were frequently tested, especially in Application of Integrals questions, where candidates had to find the area between curves.
Algebra:
Quadratic Equations: Quadratic equations with real and complex roots, discriminants, and their geometric interpretation were featured.
Progressions: Questions on Arithmetic Progressions (AP) and Geometric Progressions (GP), particularly related to sum formulas and properties, were commonly found.
Matrices and Determinants: Problems involving matrix operations, inverse of matrices, and determinants were regularly included.
Coordinate Geometry:
Circles, Ellipses, and Hyperbolas: These topics were tested with a mix of direct and application-based questions. Questions typically required the use of equations of conics and related geometrical properties (e.g., tangents, distance from point to conic).
Straight Lines and Parabolas: In addition to conics, questions based on the properties of parabolas and straight lines (e.g., slope, equation, distance between points) were present.
Vectors and 3D Geometry:
Topics like vectors, dot and cross products, and 3D geometry questions involving the equation of planes, lines, and distance from a point to a plane were asked in 2024.
Mechanics (35% contribution):
Laws of Motion: Questions on Newton’s Laws, friction, and motion on inclined planes were common in 2024.
Work and Energy: The work-energy theorem, conservation of energy, and problems involving kinetic and potential energy were regularly tested.
Rotational Motion: This section featured questions on torque, moment of inertia, angular momentum, and angular velocity. A few application-based problems were included in the exam.
Electromagnetism:
Electrostatics: Coulomb's Law, electric fields, and Gauss’s Law were featured. Problems related to capacitance, dielectrics, and potential energy were also tested.
Magnetic Effects of Current: Problems on magnetic fields due to currents, Ampere’s Law, and magnetic force on moving charges were present.
Electromagnetic Induction: Faraday’s Law and Lenz’s Law, along with self and mutual inductance, were regularly tested.
Modern Physics:
Questions on atomic structure, photoelectric effect, and nuclear physics were prominent in 2024. Problems focused on Bohr’s model of the atom, half-life, and nuclear decay.
The dual nature of matter and de Broglie’s hypothesis also appeared in a few questions.
Thermodynamics:
Laws of Thermodynamics, heat transfer, and the Carnot engine were the focus. Problems with entropy, internal energy, and specific heat were tested.
Organic Chemistry:
Reaction Mechanisms: Organic chemistry dominated the Chemistry section with a strong emphasis on reaction mechanisms. Topics like SN1/SN2 reactions, electrophilic and nucleophilic substitution reactions, and aromatic substitution were prevalent.
Hydrocarbons and Alcohols: These topics were tested through reactions, naming reactions, and properties of different functional groups.
Aromatic Compounds: Reactions and mechanisms involving benzene derivatives and their electrophilic substitution were commonly tested.
Physical Chemistry:
Electrochemistry: The section focused on Gibbs Free Energy and its applications were tested frequently, Nernst equation and all.
Chemical Kinetics: Questions on rate laws, order of reactions, and Arrhenius equations were common.
Equilibrium: Le Chatelier’s Principle, equilibrium constant (K), and questions on concentration and temperature effects on equilibrium were featured.
Inorganic Chemistry:
Chemical Bonding: Questions on hybridization, molecular orbital theory, and covalent/ionic bonds were frequently tested.
Coordination Compounds: Ligands, oxidation states, and stability of coordination complexes were regularly tested.
Periodic Trends: The properties of elements and their periodic variations, including ionization energy, electronegativity, and atomic radius, were covered.
On Question asked by student community
The approximate annual cost for 11th/12th PCM and JEE coaching is around 1.5 to 3.5 lakhs for institutes, excluding hostel and mess fees. The total fees including hostel as well as mess fees can rise upto 4.5 to 6.5 lakhs and above, depending on location and institute quality.

Hello,
For JEE Main and JEE Advanced , the cut-offs are lower for ST category students. Here is a simple idea based on recent trends:
JEE Main qualification for ST : Around 50–60 marks is usually enough to qualify for JEE Advanced.
JEE Advanced qualification for ST : You just need to clear the JEE Main cut-off, then appear for Advanced.
To get good NITs or IITs , you will need higher marks.
For NITs (Hyderabad or good branches), try for 120+ marks in JEE Main .
For IITs , even with ST quota, you should aim for at least 80–100+ marks in JEE Advanced for decent branches.
Since you are from ST category and Hyderabad , you don’t need 300 marks in JEE Main. Try to score as high as possible to get better branches, but even moderate marks can qualify you.
Hope it helps !
Yes, you can. If you do 11th from CBSE in 2025 and 12th from NIOS in 2026, then you are allowed to attempt JEE. NIOS is a valid board, so you can give JEE in 2026 and again in 2027. Just take admission on time and pass your 12th exams.
For the JEE 2026, priority-wise, high weightage chapters include Integral
1. Calculus, Coordinate Geometry, Vectors, 3D Geometry, Complex Numbers, and Quadratic Equations in Maths
2. Semiconductors, Current Electricity, Work, Power and Energy, and Gravitation in Physics
3. Organic Chemistry Containing Oxygen, Hydrocarbons, and P-Block Elements in Chemistry.
