Considering the additional time as a blessing the students should calmly focus on their weaknesses and strengthen their weak areas.
In 2020 all students are facing lots of problems related to study and it is also a bad time for the students that are preparing for the entrance exam. The whole country has been under complete lockdown for the past few months due to COVID-19. This has shattered the students' dreams of wanting to move forward in JEE Main (April session) follow by JEE Advance in July.
Before the lockdown, JEE Main (April session) was to be conducted on 5, 7, 9 and 11 April. But soon after the lockdown, the National Testing Agency extended the date of the JEE Main exam.
The students should think positive as now you have more time for the preparation and should not panic about it. The students should utilize this time for preparing well. Considering the current situation as a blessing the students should calmly focus on their weaknesses and strengthen their weak areas.

You can also practice old question papers/practice papers for better results. The previous year papers help us to understand the type of questions and the pattern of the exam

The rank needed for admission to the BTech course would depend on the course, round and branch you are applying for. For the General HS category, the Round 2 cutoff was 770798 for the BTech CSE course. So, this category students need a rank of at least 770798 to be considered eligible for admission.

Yes, several colleges convert a good JEE Main percentile directly into a fee waiver. Graphic Era's GECET-linked scholarships and UPES's merit scholarships can cut your fees by up to 50%. This makes originally expensive private colleges much more affordable for high scorers, so it's worth applying ev

Yes, most Coimbatore colleges, including PSG Tech, Karunya, and Kumaraguru, primarily admit students through TNEA counselling, which is based on Class 12 merit rather than JEE Main. JEE Main is mainly relevant if you're targeting government institutes like NITs. So a strong Class 12 score alone can

No, I don't think you can get into B.Tech EEE at Ajay Kumar Garg Engineering College, Ghaziabad with JEE Main rank of 5,30,000 as General, non-UP domicile candidate. Typically, closing rank for EEE close much earlier around 3,00,00.

No, JEE Main has not been mentioned as an accepted entrance exam for BTech at GLA University.
Candidates who want to apply for BTech at this institute must appear in their own entrance exam called GLAET.
Admissions are based solely on scores obtained in this exam along with performance in PI rounds.
