Common Exam Hall Mistakes to Avoid in JEE Main 2025 Exam Hall
Candidates can check the common mistakes that have to be avoided in the JEE Main exam hall:
- Arriving Late: Candidates must reach the exam centre well before the reporting time. Latecomers may not be allowed entry, leading to disqualification.
- Missing Admit Card & ID Proof: Forgetting to carry the JEE Main 2025 admit card and a valid photo ID (Aadhaar card, passport, voter ID, etc.) can result in denial of entry. Always double-check before leaving home.
- Not Following Dress Code: The National Testing Agency (NTA) has prescribed a specific dress code to prevent malpractice. Avoid wearing items with metallic elements, such as belts, jewelry, and clothing with pockets.
- Carrying Prohibited Items: Certain items are strictly prohibited inside the examination hall. Bringing them can lead to disqualification.
- Ignoring Exam Instructions: Reading and understanding all instructions on the question paper and computer screen is essential. Misinterpreting guidelines can lead to errors in answering.
- Spending Too Much Time on One Question: Since the exam follows a time-bound format, managing time effectively is crucial. If a question seems too difficult, move on and return to it later if time permits.
