As the exam dates of JEE are in clash with MET and SRMJEEE 2022, the institutes are likely to reschedule these dates in order to allow students to appear in both exams. Manipal Institute of Technology Entrance Test (MET) and SRM Joint Engineering Entrance Examination (SRMJEEE) are very popular exams and are taken by most engineering aspirants. Also, the English language paper of ISC would also be changed considering the clash with JEE.

Students fraternity has been constantly demanding the postponement of JEE Main until the class 12 board exams get over. “As we’ve only two attempts this year and JEE Main is sandwiched between class 12 board exams and JEE Main 2022, we can not focus on either exam.

Will JEE Main 2022 second attempt be postponed?

The first attempt of JEE Main 2022 will conclude on May 4 and the second attempt will begin on May 24. As there is only 20 days gap between the two attempts, there is a strong possibility that the second attempt will get postponed.

Yes. Students with valid JEE Main scores can apply for admissions through the WBJEE counselling. However, these students will be eligible for allotment only in the 10% approved seats offered by the self-financing colleges and institutes participating in the state-level counselling.
