Hey Aditya,

Since from this year a Candidate can appear for JEE main twice in an academic year but it will be considered as one. Also a candidate can appear for JEE mains for 3 consecutive years and should be atleast 10+2 passed with Maths, physics and chemistry as his/her subjects. If you clear or qualify JEE mains then you can apply for JEE advance exam which if qualified will provide you India's top engineering colleges i.e. IIT colleges. This year 5233 no. Of seats under JOSSA counseling have been increased. Hope you get all the information you asked for.

Hey Aditya! As per my knowledge according to National Testing Agency (NTA) a candidate is eligible for JEE Advanced for 2 years from the first registration or clearing of 10 + 2. After this you can attempt for JEE Mains as many times as you want but JEE Advanced can be registered till two years. Hope this may help you.

Yes you can appear for JEE Mains for three consecutive years than you have to give a break. Since it is now conducted twice per year both the attempts will be treated as one.

Hi Aditya,

You can apply for JEE Main thrice in consecutive years, the first one being the year you pass your class 12th.

As far as JEE Advanced is concerned, you can apply for it twice in consecutive years, the first one being the year you pass your class 12th. Although you can only apply for advanced if you have qualified JEE Main.


All the best

Hi Aditya,
    Only 3 consecutive attempts are allowed for JEE Mains.

If you're curious to know how many attempts for JEE Advanced can be availed, then the answer is Maximum 2 Attempts and that too in the consecutive years only. Like, if you have appeared in 2018 Exam for the 1sttime, then only in 2019 you can avail your remaining JEE Advanced attempts.

Best of Luck!!
