Hello, I hope you are doing well

I understand that you had to take a break from studies due to unavailable circumstances, but it won't affect your opportunity to appear for JEE Mains.

Following is the eligibility criteria for JEE Mains:

• There is no age limit.

• You must have passed your class 12 exam in 2021 or 2022. Three consecutive attempts are allowed for JEE Main 2022 examination.

• Students should have secured a minimum JEE Main 2022 qualifying score.

• Candidates should have taken at least 5 subjects for the class 12 or qualifying exam (Physics, Chemistry, & Mathematics mandatory).

Following is the eligibility criteria for JEE Advanced:

The candidates should have been born on or after October 1, 1997. However, SC, ST and PwD candidates will get a relaxation of 5 years (born on or after October 1, 1992).

Hope this helps.

All the best!
