Now that JEE is over..

The Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) was conducted at 1,026 centres across the country on Sunday,the 11th of April as nearly 4.72 lakhs students attempted the examination for nearly 8000 seats in the IITs, IT BHU and ISM Dhanbad. The exam spanned a six hour duration (0900-1200 hrs and 1400-1700 hrs). It consisted of 2 papers each in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics.

The pattern was not very different from JEE 2009. It did not see the return of assertion-reason type questions, but the paper retained subjective questions and matrix-matching types.

Overall, the paper was simpler than JEE 2009. The level of difficulty was greatly decreased and there were partial markings which were introduced. Physics was the easiest, followed by Chemistry. Mathematics was tough as usual.

About the cut-offs, the overall cut-off might well be around 210, going by the relative simplicity of the paper. The subject-wise cut-off for Physics and Chemistry should definitely increase.
The cut-off for 500 and 1000 AIR is expected to be about 335 and 310 respectively, though a better estimate would be available only after a week or so.
