Hello,

Yes, you are eligible to attempt JEE Main 2026, as eligibility is based on appearing for or passing the class 12 exam in 2024, 2025, or 2026. Since you passed Class 12 in 2024, you are within the eligibility window to appear in 2026. Here in this article you will find more about the JEE Main eligibility criteria.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello,

Yes, you are eligible for JEE Main 2026 .

Here is the simple rule:
If you passed Class 12 in 2024 or 2025 , or you will pass in 2026 , you can appear for JEE Main 2026.

Since you passed HS in 2024 , you can apply for JEE Main 2026 without any problem.

There is no age limit and no minimum Class 12 marks needed to appear for JEE Main.
(But for NIT/IIIT, you need 75% or top 20 percentile.)

So yes, you are fully eligible.

Hope it helps !

Hi there,

Yes, you are eligible for JEE Mains 2026 since you passed your 12th class in 2024. You can attempt the exam within three years of passing your 12th class. A candidate has up to three consecutive years to take the exam after passing class 12th, and is allowed up to two attempts per year.

Hope it helps!!!
