Hello.

A student can attempt the Jee mains twice in one year. There is no age limit for the students to attempt the exam, a student can write the Jee mains for 3 years after completion of the 12th.

Hello.
The NTA is conducting the jee main exam two times in a year that is in January and April this year.
You can attempt in the two exams and the best of these two will be calculated at the end and will be giving a rank based on the best of these two.
Overall you can attempt for 3 years in row that is 6 times(since you will be having two attempts every year) For example you completed your 12 th in 2019 you can attempt in 2019,2020,2021.
Hope this information is useful for you.
All the best.

Hello Greetings

Earlier the JEE Main exam was conducted by CBSE and CBSE has put a limit of maximum three attempts that too in consecutive three Years Begining from the class 12th, But from this Year onwards Nationa Testing Agency is Going to conduct JEE Main exam and NTA has made no comment on the number of the attempts.

So considering the Previous bar on the Number of attempts then You will have Three Year chances which Total to six since the exam is conducted twice a year.

  • Two attempts in A Year
  • Total six attempts.


Hope This Helps All the Best.
