NTA announces changes in exam pattern

NTA has announced a significant change to the format of the Main 2025, discontinuing option to select questions in Section B of the exam. The NTA released a notification on Thursday, releasing the official website for the JEE Main 2025 Examination.

In another notification, the NTA said that the option to select questions in Section B, introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic, will no longer be available. This means candidates appearing for JEE Main 2025 will need to attempt all five questions in Section B without any choice.

"The optional selection of questions was introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic to ease the pressure on students amid unprecedented challenges," the NTA noted in a statement. "With the WHO declaring the end of COVID-19 as a public health emergency on May 5, 2023, we are reverting to the original exam structure."

From JEE Main 2025 onwards, candidates will no longer have the flexibility to select questions in Section B. "All students will now be required to attempt all five questions in Section B for each subject," stated the NTA.
