📅Important Dates in a Flash

🔥 Breaking: Significant Shifts in Patterns for 2025! 

No More Open-ended Questions! The most significant change is that Section B now includes five required numerical questions for each subject (there were previously ten questions with five optional). This puts an end to the flexibility of the COVID era.

Effect on Students: 

• Decreased buffer: Don't skip difficult numericals!

• Enhanced accuracy pressure: incorrect NVQs result in a -1 negative marking 

• Simplified preparation: concentrate on fundamental ideas in math, chemistry, and physics

📝 Analysis of Paper-Wise Patterns (2025 vs 2024)

 🏛Papers 2A (B.Arch) and 2B (B.Planning) 

•  Section on Mathematics: The same mandatory numerical rule 

• B.Arch Drawing Test: Offline on A4 sheets 

• Planning Test (B.Plan): 25 MCQs

⏰ Important Things for Exam Day

•  Three hours (four hours for PwD) 

• Thirteen languages are available, including Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and English

• Changes: 

1. In the Morning :9 a.m. to 12 p.m
2. In the afternoon: 3 to 6 p.m. (Extended for combined Paper 2 until 6:30 PM.)

🎯 Five-Step Planning Method

1. Master Numerical Value Questions (NVQs) 

"Section B is now a make-or-break section!"

•  Practice answering questions with only integers (e.g., 5, 5.0, 05 all accepted). 

• Pay attention to high-weight subjects: 

1. Math: Algebra (25%) and Calculus (30%) 
2. Physics: Contemporary Physics and Optics
3. Chemistry:Electrochemistry and Coordination Compounds

2. Make Use of Official Mock Exams 

• For CBT simulations, utilize NTA's "National Test Abhyas" platform.

•  Expert advice: Complete 2024 papers with the new time limits (45 seconds per QA question).

3.Use AIR 1's Study Tips 

• Ten numericals per subject per day for the NVQ drill

• Error Logbook: Monitor weekly errors in NVQs 

• 70% of the chemistry questions in NCERT Back-to-Basics are taken from NCERT exemplars.

4.Alert for City Notification and Admit Card 

• Examine the city slip fifteen days prior. 

• Releases of admit cards Three days prior to the test, bring a printed copy and a picture ID.

5. Optimization of Results

•  For ranking, the best score from both sessions is taken into account. 

• Make use of college predictor tools with expected percentiles, such as Careers360.

❓ Common Questions

Q. JEE Main 2025 Is it possible to switch the language of the exam between sessions?

 A: Not at all! When registering, a language must be chosen.

Q.Is NCERT sufficient for a score of 250 or higher? 

A: Yes, for chemistry! Pair with HC Verma or RD Sharma for math and physics. 

Q.How many students showed up for the first session of 2025? 

A: Out of 12.58 lakh applicants, 14 achieved a 100 percentile score.
