JEE Main 2027 — Two-Session Structure
JEE Main 2027 will follow the same two-session model used in recent years. Session 1 takes place in January and Session 2 in April. You can appear in one or both sessions. NTA counts the better of your two NTA scores for the final merit list, so appearing in both gives you a second chance to improve your percentile.
JEE Main Paper 1 (B.E./B.Tech) carries a total of 300 marks — 100 marks each for Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. The score is used for admission to NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs, and qualifying students become eligible for JEE Advanced 2027.
