This year’s JEE Main January session has been constantly surrounded with controversies this year. Initially, when the NTA had released the official notification, aspirants had protested that they had been given very less time to prepare and also claimed that the engineering entrance exam is clashing with their pre-board exams, practical exams, vivas, etc. Other than that, the eligibility criterion of 75 per cent marks in class 12 board exams for admission to NITs, IIITs and CFTIs was also criticised. Keeping in mind the criticism, the Ministry of Education announced that now apart from the All India Rank (AIR) of the candidate JEE Main, a student should either have scored 75 per cent and above in class 12 board exam, or appear in top 20-percentile candidates of the respective board exam result.
