JEE Advanced Pattern

The changing pattern of the JEE Advanced exam can be due to various reasons:

• One of the reason can be to check how the students perform under pressure and how weel they adapt.
• To check how the students can deal with problems and unfamiliar formats.
• To eliminate the candidates who rote learn.

JEE Advanced is on the toughest exam for selection to the most premiere colleges of the nation - IITs. Therefore to add to the difficulty level, the pattern is kept undiclosed until the exam day.

The JEE Advanced exam pattern is dynamic. It changes every year. The only known aspect of the JEE Advanced exam pattern are:

1. The number of papers: There are two papers - paper 1 and paper 2.
2. The exam mode: The JEE Advanced exam is held in computer based test mode.
3. Duration: The exam is held for 6 hours. Each paper is of 3 hours.
4. Subjects: Each question papers has questions from three sections - Maths, Physics and Chemistry

JEE Advanced pattern will change every year in terms of maeking scheme and the types of questions asked (MCQs, match the following, paragraph type, numerical answer type.)

The total number of questions asked in JEE Advanced 2025 was 96.  Paper 1 had 48 questions, and paper 2 also had 48 questions. Each section of maths, physics and chemistry had 16 questions each in paper 1 and also in paper 2.  The total marks of the exam was 360.

Not necessarily. The JEE Advanced exam pattern is known to change every year. Hence the exam pattern of the mock exam might not be the same as the one to be followed on the JEE Advanced 2025 exam day. Candidates must be ready to face a different pattern on the JEE Advanced exam day.

It is never a given that an IIT's JEE Advanced question paper will follow the same format or have the same degree of difficulty. One of the most often-asked questions about the JEE Advanced exam is also a myth. The pattern and design of the question paper are independent of the IIT being conducted. 

The Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) advance changes its examination pattern every year to ensure that the candidates must not generalize the examination pattern and adopt to every new change once in a while. It also ensures that only the best talented and capable minds enter into the IITs, reducing the influence of big coaching institutes. Since the examination pattern is likely to change every year, it is important for the candidate to be well prepared for all types of questions.
