JEE Main 2022 Session 2: The second session of the Joint Entrance Examination Main (JEE Main) has been deferred. It will now be held from July 25 onwards, a senior official of the National Testing Agency (NTA) confirmed to The Indian Express. The admit card will be released on July 21 at the official website – jeemain.nta.nic.in

Earlier, the entrance exam was scheduled to be held from July 21 to July 30. The delay, the official said, was to keep an adequate buffer between the end of the first phase of the Central University Entrance Test (CUET) and the beginning of JEE (Main). Phase 1 of CUET is being held from July 15 to July 20.

“We need some buffer between two exam for adequate preparation. CUET ends on July 20 and it would have been difficult to start another exam the next day. Hence, JEE (Main) will now start from July 24,” the senior official added.
