JEE Main Exam High Scoring Chapters And Topics

Here, the JEE applicants will find the section-wise weightage for the coming JEE Main exam 2025. This information is extracted from the previous year's paper and online resources. The NTA (National Testing Agency) does not release such section-wise or topic-wise weightage for the JEE Main exam, and thus, completely replying to this information will not be a great choice to make. Make sure to have a good command over all the chapters and topics mentioned in the J JEE Main Syllabus 2025. You can use this information for the last-minute revision.

Physics Weightage in JEE Main Chapter-Wise

As per the information provided by experts online and other agencies, the top JEE Main Scoring Chapters in Physics are electrodynamics, heat and thermodynamics, mechanics, optics, and SHM and waves. This Physics weightage in JEE Main is based on the 2023 exam; thus, you need to first compare these with the deleted syllabus to avoid investing time in any unnecessary topics.
