Hello Aspirant,

No, if you are seeking admission in B.Tech courses offered by NITs then there is no need to appear for JEE-Advance because admission to NITs for their B.Tech courses are only conducted on the basis of JEE-Main score. Let us discuss some latest updates on JEE-Main and JEE-Advance 2021 ;-

** As of now only two sessions of JEE-Main have been successfully conducted and two sessions are still remaining which will be conducted when the situation due to this pandemic become normal.

** If you are appearing for class 12th this year then also you can appear for JEE-Main 2021 or if you had passed your class 12th in 2019/2020 then also you are eligible for it.

** You should have Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics combination as your class 12th subjects.

** This year 75% criteria of class 12th for admission to NITs/IIITs/CFTIs or to appear for JEE-Advance has been waived off in the wake of this pandemic, so now if you are just passed in all the subjects of class 12th then also you are eligible for admission to NITs/IIITs/CFTIs and for JEE-Advance if you qualify JEE-Main 2021
