JEE Main 2022 will be held in two sessions: NTA

A candidate need not appear in both Sessions. However, if a candidate appears in more than one Session then his/her best of the JEE (Main) – 2022 NTA Scores will be considered for preparation of merit list/ ranking.

The agency said that the decision will benefit candidates in multiple ways. “This will give two opportunities to the candidates to improve their scores in the examination if they are not able to give their best in one attempt. In the first attempt, the students will get a first-hand experience of taking an examination and will know their mistakes which they can improve while attempting for the second time. This will reduce the chances of dropping a year and droppers would not have to waste an entire year,” the official website read.

The agency website also read that if anyone missed the examination due to reasons beyond control (such as the Board examination), then he/she will not have to wait for one entire year.
