About JEE Main Exam:
● A Gateway to Prestigious Institutes: JEE Main is a national-level engineering entrance exam that serves as the primary gateway to some of India’s most prestigious institutes. Besides the IITs, NITs, and Centrally Funded Technical Institutes (CFTIs), several top private and state universities also consider JEE Main scores for admissions, including:
1) NITK Surathkal, NIT Trichy, and other NITs
2) IIIT Bangalore, IIIT Hyderabad, and other IIITs
3) PES University, RV College of Engineering, and MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology (MSRIT)
4) Other leading engineering institutes across India
● Challenging and Comprehensive: The exam tests students in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, assessing their problem-solving skills and understanding of core concepts.
● Two Sessions for Better Opportunities: Conducted twice a year, JEE Main offers students two opportunities to secure their best scores for admissions.
● Percentile Score: One of the key metrics in JEE is the percentile score, which indicates a student’s relative performance compared to all test-takers. For instance, a 97th percentile means that only 3% of students nationwide have scored higher, whereas a 99th percentile places a student in the top 1% of all candidates. Typically, admission to institutions like NITK Surathkal requires a percentile in the high 90s, depending on the branch and category.
