Hello Diksha,

No, you cannot change your category from General to EWS for JEE Advanced if you have already filled your form as General in both the January and April JEE Mains. The category you select during your JEE Mains registration is considered for JEE Advanced as well.

However, if you are eligible for the EWS (Economically Weaker Section) category, you can apply for a correction in your JEE Mains application during the correction window (if the window is still open). If the correction window is closed, you will not be able to change your category.

Make sure that the EWS certificate is valid and that you meet all the eligibility criteria for EWS benefits. If your category remains General, you will not be able to avail of EWS reservations for college admissions.
