Hi

AICTE has just recently revised its rules according to which now it is not mandatory to have studied physics chemistry and mathematics to be eligible for engineering courses

But nta has already released its information brochure for JEE 2021 according to which students without maths are not eligible .

For reference, JEE main 2021 eligibility criteria is provided below

Eligibility criteria says that:-

-) Qualification required :- to be eligible for JEE mains for BE or Btech you need 10+2/equivalent qualification with Physics, mathematics and anyone of

  • Chemistry
  • or Biology
  • or Biotechnology
  • Or Technical Vocational Subject.

-) Passing year :- one is eligible for JEE main examination for consecutive three years starting from the year of appearing for 12th /equivalent examination i. e to be eligible for JEE mains 2021 you should be either appearing for 12th board exam or equivalent in 2021 or should have passed it in 2020 or 2019

-) There is no age limit to be eligible

-) there is no minimum percentage requirement to be eligible for JEE Mains, you just need to have passed your 12th

But yes,

To be eligible for NITs, IIITs, CFTIs one needs at least 75% marks in class 12th if belongs to General or OBC category or or at least 65% marks in class 12th if belongs to Sc or St category. For this year i. e 2021 this minimum percentage requirement of 75% - 65 % has been lifted off.

For detailed information about jee main eligibility criteria go through our page, the link for which is provided below

So,

as of now there are no changes in JEE mains 2021 eligibility criteria and students who have not studied physics, maths i. e don't fulfill aforesaid mentioned criteria are not eligible for jee main but yes If any changes are made by NTA in JEE main eligibility criteria then it will notify so don't worry.
