JEE Advanced is an entrance exam conducted in India for aspirants seeking admission to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs). Also known as IIT JEE, it is a computer-based test (CBT) held yearly by one of the seven zonal IITs: IIT Bombay, IIT Kanpur, IIT Delhi, IIT Guwahati, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Roorkee and IIT Madras. The concerned IIT conducts two papers, i.e. Paper 1 and 2, to test aspirants’ knowledge and skills.
JEE Advanced is considered one of the most challenging exams conducted throughout the country, with a qualification rate of 26.17%—as per a recent report. In each of the 23 IITs, including the Indian Institute of Space Technology (IIST), seven Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISERs), Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Indian Institute of Petroleum and Energy (IIPE), and several other universities provide admission to several programs based on JEE Advanced scores.
Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur has released the Joint Entrance Examination (Advanced) 2025 brochure on its official website jeeadv.ac.in. Through JEE Advanced, IITs offer admission to undergraduate programs, including Bachelor’s, Integrated Master’s, and Dual Degree (Bachelor-Master) programs in Engineering, Sciences, and Architecture. Candidates should refer to the brochure for detailed eligibility, exam pattern, syllabus, and other important guidelines.

IIT Madras will release an official brochure soon on its portal with the JEE Advanced 2025 eligibility criteria guidelines. All aspirants willing to appear for the entrance test must satisfy all norms without fail because the exam-conducting authorities reserve the right to cancel the candidature if they later find out candidates failed to abide by the criteria. Let us take a closer look at JEE Advanced eligibility criteria:
For JEE Advanced 2025, candidates should have been born on or after October 1, 1998. Five years of age relaxation is given to SC, ST and PwD candidates, i.e., these candidates should be born on or after October 1, 1993.
| Order | Category | Number of Top Candidates | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | OPEN | 96,187 | 1,01,250 |
| 2 | OPEN-PWD | 5,063 | |
| 3 | GEN-EWS | 23,750 | 25,000 |
| 4 | GEN-EWS-PWD | 1,250 | |
| 5 | OBC-NCL | 64,125 | 67,500 |
| 6 | OBC-NCL-PWD | 3,375 | |
| 7 | SC | 35,625 | 37,500 |
| 8 | SC-PWD | 1,875 | |
| 9 | ST | 17,812 | 18,750 |
| 10 | ST-PWD | 938 | |
Candidates who have cleared their Class 12 examination in 2023 are eligible to appear for the exam. Candidates appearing for the board exam 2025 are also eligible to appear for the JEE Advanced exam 2025.
JEE Advanced can be attempted a maximum of two times in two consecutive years.
A student should have appeared for the Class 12 (or equivalent) examination for the first time in 2025 with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Candidates who had appeared in the Class 12 (or equivalent) examination for the first time in 2021 or earlier are not eligible to appear in JEE Advanced 2025.
JEE Advanced question paper is printed in 2 languages:
Candidates can go through the JEE Advanced eligibility criteria in detail and check if they qualify to appear for JEE Advanced 2025.
The decided IIT will begin the JEE Advanced 2025 registration process on April 23, 2025. Aspirants have been notified about the registration process through the official website of IIT JEE, i.e., jeeadv.ac.in.
Students may prepare for JEE Advanced exam through the following:
a) Regular study through test books that are suggested in the section “Study Plan to Maximize Score” section) above and revise in a planned manner.
b) JEE Advanced syllabus covers chapters from both 11th and 12th standards. This being one of the most difficult exams to crack, the students should start preparing well in advance. Ideally, a student should start preparing for JEE Advanced right from the beginning of class 11.
c) In normal circumstances, all the central / state board exams for class 12 will be over by March/April. Out of the 4 stages of the JEE mains Exams, a student had the opportunity to write the JEE Mains Exam twice before the board exam. After the 12th board exam, the student now has to effectively utilise the rest of the time through April, May, June, and July for the preparation of the next two phases of JEE Mains, followed by JEE Advanced Exam. Hence, after the 12th board exam, the student must prepare more intensely and focussed.
d) Last 30 days are very important for every student. By that time, the basic preparation for all the subjects is over. Now, the time has come for students in the last 30 days to handle many things at the same time as
i) memorising and remembering all the formulas/data/facts and figures,
ii) revising the whole syllabus,
iii) Strengthening the portions of the syllabus the student is feeling still remained weak. It becomes a very hard and confusing situation for most of the students to make a balance this time. In the table below, we recommend a tentative study plan for the last 30 days to make a balance.
| Activity | Days |
|---|---|
| Total number of days for Exam Preparation | 30 days |
| Total number of Chapters/ Topics to Revise | 45 |
| Suggested number of Hours to Study Per Day | 7 hours |
| Total number of Topics to be Revised from Physics Per Day | 1 |
| Total number of Topics to be Revised from Chemistry Per Day | 1 |
| Total number of Topics to be Revised from Biology Per Day | 1 |
| Total number of Topics to be Revised Per Day across all Subjects | 3 |
| Total number of Topics to be Revised in a Week (all subjects) | 3 x 7 = 21 |
| Total number of Topics to be Revised in the First Week (Seven Days) | 21 |
| Total number of Topics to be Revised in the Second Week (Seven Days) | 21 |
| Remaining Topics | 1 day |
| Total Revision Completes in | 15 days |
| Total number of Days Left | 15 days |
| Practising Mock Tests/ Sample Tests/ Practice Papers | 14 days |
In general, there has always been something new in the JEE Advanced exam since it was introduced in 2012. And, being one of India’s toughest engineering entrance exams, a candidate has to study the syllabus to a reasonable depth thoroughly. One cannot afford to leave out any section for a good rank. But then always, some chapters or topics can be more important than others for the exam. These may help candidates who are struggling with the vast syllabus.
| Physics | Chemistry | Mathematics |
|---|---|---|
| System of Particles and Rotational Motion | Structure of Atom | Binomial Theorem |

To gain admission to top Engineering colleges, candidates search for strategies to improve their scores for exams like JEE Advanced. While studying for JEE Advanced 2025, one of the most common questions students have is about critical topics and chapters.
To help students, experts at Embibe have compiled a list of the most important chapters for Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics in JEE Advanced 2025. The key chapters and topics candidates should concentrate on are given below:
Getting hands on with the previous year question papers of IIT JEE is another great way of being familiar with the type of questions asked in the paper, difficulty level, marking pattern, etc. By solving old question papers, aspirants can understand where to improve and which areas they are already good at.
The parents need to recognise that not every student is cut out to be a doctor, engineer, or accountant. They should avoid pushing the student blindly on a career route just because it is in trend. Parents may take the help of a career consultant who can assist the students in assessing their strengths and provide career possibilities that are suitable for them.
The JEE Advanced exam is the toughest in India for getting into engineering. It is designed for the most prestigious engineering positions. Students are enthralled by it and act irrationally. It puts them under mental and physical strain as they handle and manage their studies for both school and the many competitive exams. It is difficult to cope with the pressure and stress.
Along with the students, some parents become anxious and stress the students as their own expectations of their children rise. This puts the pupil under additional mental strain. That is something that the parents should never do.
Candidates should also refer to the IIT JEE sample papers to understand the exact replica of JEE Advanced. This will give them an idea of what exactly the final question paper looks like. Aspirants can also check out the sample papers for JEE Advanced exam published by some other private institutes, such as FIITJEE, Aakash Institute, Allen, Resonance, and others.
One of the best, most significant, and expert-recommended ways to prepare for JEE Advanced is by practising the IIT JEE mock test series. In addition, Embibe also provides an All India Test Series (AITS) for candidates willing to crack IIT JEE on the first attempt. See the benefits using the aforelinked page to know why you should take the mock test as early as possible.
Students can go through the best JEE Advanced preparation tips to obtain a good rank in the JEE Advanced 2025 exam. JEE Advanced is a computer-based exam conducted every year by one of the seven zonal IITs under the aegis of the Joint Admission Board (JAB).
Ahead of the JEE Advanced exam, which will likely occur in the third week of June 2025, aspirants should prepare for the test in advance to compete for the most prestigious seats in the IITs. Despite being one of the most challenging entrance exams, students can easily pass the test with a sound preparation strategy and rigorous practice.
Developing a preparation strategy requires effective time management and subject-specific planning. In the section below, we are giving a detailed study plan for JEE Advanced exam:
This study method will help you gain confidence and improve your weak areas, leading to a more effective preparation strategy.
Below are the details related to the JEE Advanced 2025 admit card:
JEE (Advanced) 2025 will be conducted on May 18, 2025, and the exam conducting body will issue the JEE Advanced 2025 admit card on May 11, 2025. Aspirants must carry a hard copy of their hall tickets to the exam centres, or they will not be allowed to appear for the examination.
While filling out the JEE Advanced Application Form 2025, candidates must select the exam centres per their choice and preference.
