Commonly asked questions
Q:   I have signed on the JMI Entrance Exam admit card by mistake. What should I do now?
A: 

Candidates have to sign on the JMI Entrance Exam admit card in the presence of the invigilator. This acts as a proof of attendance for the exam day. In case one has signed it before that, he/she can discard the document and take a fresh print out and follow the instructions carefully. In case a candidate realises this after reaching the exam centre, then they must notify the exam centre authorities and seek for their approval to allow them to appear for the exam. Otherwise, they will have to take a printout of the JMI Entrance Exam admit card from the exam centre or from the vicinity.

Q:   Is Jamia Millia Application form out for session?
A: 

The application form for JMI entrance exam 2026 was released on February 20. Candidates who submitted online form by last date can appear for the exam.

Q:   Can I prepare for JMI Entrance Exam by practicing sample papers only?
A: 
Many candidates have scored good by only practicing sample papers, but that is not the ideal way of JMI preparation for all candidates. To crack the JMI exam, the candidates must prepare with the help of books and tutorials for conceptual clarity and then move to practicing sample papers. Many candidates who've attempted the JMI exam before can practice only sample papers and score high because they already have conceptul clarity. However, those attempting the JMI for the first time must give equal importance to both books and sample papers.
Q:   Is JMI Entrance Exam tough for an average student?
A: 

JMI Entrance Exam is a pen and paper-based test which is designed to assess a candidate's analytical aptitude, logical reasoning skills, English comprehension and general awareness. It may sound tough, but these are the skills which we are taught in school so there is nothing new to learn. Even if you are an average student, you will find a lot of familiar topics in the sections asked in Jamia Millia Entrance Exam.
