Is it mandatory to write both JEE paper 1 and paper 2 to be eligible to write JEE Advanced?

Hii Nitish,

you can appear in JEE main Paper 1 or paper 2 or both.

paper 1 is for B-Tech course like-

• Computer Science Engineering
• Civil Engineering
• Electrical engineering
• Electronics and communication engineering
• Mechanical engineering
• Textile engineering.

and paper 2 is for-

• B-arch.

Engineering in Architechture.

The eligibility criteria for appearing in JEE main is only passed 12th with PCM.

and For admission in NITs, eligibility criteria is min 75 % aggrigate in 12th board.

and for JEE advance The only eligibility criteria is to clear cutoff of JEE main.

hope you understand

thank you

Hey Nitish,

JEE MAIN is basically for the study of engineering. During the form fill up of the JEE MAINS, you will find out you have to choose between paper 1 and 2 or you can opted for both.

So basically paper 1 is for the study of b.tech while paper 2 is for the study of b.arch. It is not necessary to attend both the paper to get qualified for jee advnc.
