Due to the prevailing COVID – 19 pandemic related circumstances in India, the date of JEE (Advanced) 2021 has remained unannounced.
Recently, the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur released the information brochure for JEE-Advanced 2021.
As most of the rules remain same, the organising institute has tweaked some eligibility criteria and admission rules keeping the COVID 19 pandemic in mind.
Students who cleared JEE Main in 2020 and could not appear in the JEE-Advanced papers in 2020 due to Covid-related issues, will be allowed to register directly for the JEE-Advanced 2021 exam.
“This is only one-time measure valid only for JEE-Advanced 2021.
These candidates will be considered in addition to and not as part of the total number of candidates who would qualify from JEE-Main 2021 for appearing in JEE-Advanced 2021,”
Earlier, Aspirants need to gather 75% scores or more in the class 12 board to qualify the JEE-Advanced.
But due-to COVID 19 Pandemic this year, the criteria has been changed considering the fact that all school education boards in the country scrapped class 12 exams this year.
“Candidates should have appeared and cleared their class 12 exams and should be among the top 2.5 lakh successful candidates including all categories in JEE-Main 2021.

CRACKING JEE Advanced 2021 and Securing Ranks
Students must focus on these following things while preparing for JEE (Advanced)
Strengthening of the concepts
Proper applications of concepts
Practice of JEE Advanced level problems
Attempt MOCK Test as many as they can
Utilize the time & Prepare short notes
Remain Calm & Stress free from COVID-19 Threat
How to ensure a high rank
Students should avoid selective study, no short cut method should be followed.
Number of Questions being large in objective type papers, all major concepts/topics is likely to be covered with intermingling of the concepts of various topics in the same question in some of questions.
Students should keep focused & should strictly follow well planned time table of revision.
During practice sessions of attempting mock test papers, student should aim at 100% hit rate i.e.
all attempted questions should be correct.
This will enable competitive edge over others who will be left behind in the race due to negative marking on incorrect attempts.
Questions carrying no negative marking must be attempted since there is nothing to lose with fairly good chance of maximising marks.
Good Speed & accuracy will also allow to finish JEE Advanced papers ahead of time, leaving some time for revision & solving remaining unattempt questions.
Periodic checking of progress made by solving Quizzes/Mock Test Paper must be carried out on regular basis.
Here, the core idea is to increase speed & accuracy as a result of working on weak areas known from the attempts.
Chapter wise topic to be covered up
While preparing all the chapters of Physics, Chemistry & Mathematics as per well prepared chapter-wise, topic-wise time table, based on our past experience, maximum stress may be given on the following topics with likely major share in Question papers.
Mathematics: Quadratic Equations & Expressions, Complex Numbers, Probability, Vectors, Matrices in Algebra; Circle, Parabola, Hyperbola in Coordinate Geometry; Functions, Limits, Continuity and Differentiability, Application of Derivatives, Definite Integral in Calculus.
Physics: Mechanics, Fluids, Heat & Thermodynamics, Waves and Sound, Capacitors & Electrostatics, Magnetics, Electromagnetic Induction, Optics and Modern Physics.
Chemistry: Qualitative Analysis, Coordination Chemistry & Chemical Bonding in Inorganic Chemistry, Electrochemistry, Thermodynamics, Chemical Equilibrium in Physical Chemistry and Organic Chemistry Complete as a topic.
