Hello Alka

For JEE Advance, the best 5 subjects through which you need to calculate your percentage is:

1. Physics
2. Chemistry
3. Mathematics
4. One language (which is English)
5. One other subject of your choice

So you will need to choose PCM + English + a 5th subject to calculate your percentage.

Hope this answer helps! Thank You!!!

Hi!

As per current JEE Mains eligibility rules, a student can appear in the exam in the year of passing Class 12 and the next two years. If you passed Plus Two in 2021, your direct eligibility window for JEE Mains has already passed. Even if you reattempt Class 12 in 2026, it is generally considered as an improvement attempt, and NTA counts your first attempt year for eligibility purposes. However, rules can change in future, so keep checking the official JEE Mains brochure for 2026–2027. Since you’re already pursuing B.Sc., you can also consider other state-level engineering entrance exams or lateral entry schemes for B.Tech after graduation. These options will help you continue toward your goal without depending only on JEE. It’s good you’re planning ahead, so keep exploring all possible pathways.

Best wishes for your studies!

Hello!

In JEE Advanced eligibility, the top 5 subjects from your board exam are considered. Usually, they are Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and any two other subjects from the main curriculum. If CMS is your optional subject and IT is an additional subject, the board will still calculate based on the 5 highest marks from your eligible subjects. Additional subjects are considered only if they replace a lower score from another subject. For example, if IT has a higher score than English or CMS, then IT can be counted. However, some boards follow strict rules where only main subjects are counted, so you must verify with your board’s official notification. The 75% criteria means your average percentage in those best 5 subjects must meet the requirement. My advice—list all your subjects, arrange them from highest to lowest marks, and take the top five as per rules.

Hope this clears your doubt!

Since your daughter was born in Kerala and you completed your full education there, she is eligible for KEAM. Even though she is studying in Pune now, she can apply under the “Keralite” category as per KEAM rules. Just make sure to submit valid proof of birth in Kerala and your education certificates from Kerala during the application process. This will ensure she is considered a Keralite for admission purposes.

Several online exams in India cater to Class 11 PCM students, beneficial for JEE preparation. These include:

1.Scholarship Exams: Tests like  Genius Exam offer scholarships for JEE coaching and higher education.

2.Olympiads: Competitions like SOF Olympiads (Science, Math, English) and Silverzone Olympiads, conducted online, improve subject knowledge and problem-solving skills.

3 JEE Main Mock Tests : it simulate the actual JEE environment and help students assess their preparedness.

Participation in these online exams offers benefits like flexibility, quick results, and valuable practice, boosting confidence for JEE Main 2028.

Hello,

No, you don't have to discontinue your BSc degree to appear in the JEE Mains exam. In JEE Mains you can appear while enrolled in another degree. But, if you qualify for the better college, then you can't resume your degree, and you have to discontinue your BSc degree and go for the B.Tech degree at the other college.

I hope it will clear your query!!
