IIT JEE Main examination is held to give admission to IITs, NITs and many other prestigious state and central universities. This exam is held at two levels - JEE Main and JEE Advanced. IIT JEE Advanced is the only way to get into IITs but before that one should clear JEE Main Examination with a good score.
IIT JEE Main – 2017 Examination was held in two modes – Online and Offline. Offline mode of the examination was conducted on 02 Apr 2017 and online mode was conducted on 08 Apr 2017 and 09 Apr 2017. Around 12 lakh student appeared for the examination in both online and offline mode of examination.
The paper pattern was similar to the previous year. It consisted of 90 questions and the mathematics section of the paper consisted of 30 questions. All questions were objective type and single correct option. Each question was allotted 4 (four) marks for correct response. There was also the provision of deduction of one-fourth marks for each incorrect response and no mark was deducted for unattempted question. So, each section consisted of 120 marks. Almost 16-18 questions were NCERT based and rest requires some greater knowledge.
