Five subjects will be taken into account for calculation of percentile and normalization of qualifying examination marks for paper 1 (B.E./B. Tech.) and paper 2 (B. Arch./B. Planning) of JEE Main.

These subjects are:

  • Language,

  • Physics,

  • Mathematics,

  • Any one of (Chemistry, Biology, Biotechnology, Technical Vocational Subject),

  • Any other subject

In case a candidate has appeared in six subjects in the qualifying examination, the subject (fifth or sixth) with better marks will be considered.

All the very best and good luck.

Hello,

4 subjects that are mandatory to consider for calculating class 12th boards percentage are :PHYSICS,CHEMISTRY,MATHEMATICS and ENGLISH.Apart from all these you must have two optional subjects in your class 12th like CS,HINDI,ECO,PAINTING,PHE,etc then best of two subject would be considered as 5th subject for calculating percentage of class 12th board exams.

Good luck.
