A day before the JEE Advanced 2025 exam

A day before the exam, candidates must be ready with all the small, redundant things that, if missed, can lead to major problems on the exam day:

• A day before the exam day, pack all these items: a printed copy of the JEE Advanced 2025 admit card, original & valid government ID proof, a pen/pencil, and a simple transparent water bottle.
• Check the exam centre once by visiting the location if possible. This will give you an exact idea of the traffic, the distance, and you will not be anxious about the location on the day of the exam.
• On the printed JEE Advanced admit card, make sure to get your signature and your parents' signature done in the space provided after the "important instructions to the candidates".
• Do make sure to carry lunch to have between papers 1 and 2. All candidates will get a break of 2 hours and 30 minutes between the two papers that they can utilise to have lunch. During this break, candidates will be allowed outside the exam hall. However, candidates should return to the centre on time before Paper 2 starts at 2:30 pm.
• Most importantly, have a good night's sleep and do not stress out. You need to be fresh and energetic on the exam day.
