Hello

No , it's not possible to change your category status between different sessions of the JEE Mains exam . The category you mentioned at the time of your initial registration will apply to all the sessions you choose to appear for in that particular year .

Switching from General to PWD between sessions would require official documentation and category verification during the registration itself .

If you have valid PWD status and documentation , you should register under the PWD category from the beginning for consistency and accuracy in your application .

Hope this information helps you .

Hello,


Honestly, no, it's not possible to appear for the January JEE session as a General candidate and the April JEE session as a PwD candidate.


As per the NTA guidelines, candidates can appear for JEE Main only once in a year with the same category and eligibility criteria. If you've already appeared for the January session as a General candidate, you cannot change your category to PwD for the April session.


Moreover, PwD candidates need to provide valid disability certificates and other supporting documents during the application process, which cannot be changed later.


So, it's essential to choose your category and eligibility criteria carefully before applying for JEE Main.
