ELIGIBILITY
>> Candidates need to rank among the top 2.5 lakh in BE/BTech in JEE (Main) 2022 to be able to take JEE(A).
>> Candidates who took Class XII exams in 2020 or 2021, successfully registered for JEE(A) 2021 but were absent for both papers of JEE(A) 2021 can appear directly for JEE(A) 2022.
>> As a “one-time special measure”, candidates who appeared in Class XII exams in 2020 can also take JEE(A) 2022 provided they didn’t land a seat in any of the IITs in 2021.
“The Joint Admission Board of JEE(A) at the first JAB meeting held on December 14, 2021, deliberated on the numerous representations received regarding the eligibility criteria and was of the view that the exceptional circumstances and hardships faced due to the Covid-19 pandemic required some relaxation to be given. These relaxations are special one-time measures only,” said the IITs in their press note.
A copy of candidate responses will be made available on the JEE (Advanced) 2022 website on September 1 while the online display of provisional answer keys will be made on September 3 (10 am).
