JEE Advanced 2025 Selection Process

 

The JEE Advanced selection process can be divided into different steps as given below:

 

Step 1: Register for JEE Main 2025

Go to the official website of JEE Main @ jeemain.nta.nic.in and fill in the application form to appear in the second session of JEE Main 2025, which is expected to be held in April 2025. The first session of JEE Main was conducted in January 2025 and its results will be out soon. Registering for the JEE Main examination is the first step for the JEE Advanced selection process.

 

Step 2: Appear for JEE Main and achieve a rank among the top 2.5 lakh candidates in BE/BTech paper

The next step of the selection process is that you must score amongst the top 2,50,000 students in JEE Main. Then only, you will be eligible for JEE Advanced. Although there are four more eligibility criteria that you need to fulfil simultaneously, this is one of the most important criteria for being eligible for JEE Advanced.

Note: As per the current guidelines, you do need to score at least 75% in your Class 12 examination or be in the top 20 percentile of your respective board to be eligible for JEE Advanced (for general category; 65% for SC/ST/PwD). This 75% criterion, which was temporarily waived during the COVID-affected years, has now been reinstated.

 

Step 3: Register for JEE Advanced 2025

Once you are eligible for JEE Advanced, wait for the registration to open and then register for JEE Advanced 2025. The registrations typically begin in the first week of August and last for about 4-5 days. You must keep checking the official JEE Advanced website for the latest updates on the registration process. Make sure you fill the application form as soon as the registration opens as it might be chaotic in the end when almost everyone is trying to register.

 

Step 4: Download the JEE Advanced 2025 admit card

 

JEE Advanced admit card is an important document that you will need to bring with you at the time of examination. You will not be allowed to appear in the JEE Advanced 2025 without an admit card. The JEE Advanced 2025 admit cards will be released in late May 2025. You can download it from the official website of JEE Advanced.

 

Step 5: Appear for JEE Advanced 2025

JEE Advanced 2025 will be conducted on June 4, 2025. You must appear in the examination and make sure that you perform your best.

Step 6: Check the result

Step 7: Register in JoSAA counselling for seat allotment in IITs

The last and final step of the JEE Advanced 2024 selection process is the counselling process. The Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) will start the JEE Advanced 2024 counselling process in late May 2024 and will begin allocating seats to the top-ranking students. There will be six rounds of counselling for JEE Advanced 2024. The entire process will be conducted online.
