Dear student,
In jee mains the maximum number of attempts allowed are three. You first attempt is counted as over in the year that you have passed your class 12th. After that you can maximum find into two attempts in next consecutive years.
In the information bulletin it is clearly written that - Only those candidates who have passed Class 12 equivalent examination in 2019, 2020 or 2021 OR those who are appearing in Class 12 / equivalent examination in 2021, are eligible to appear in JEE Main 2021.
So, as you have passed your class 12th in 2019 then you can give jee mains 2021. And this will be your last attempt of jee mains. After jee mains 2021 you can not give any more jee mains.
