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.

Post in your expected score and doubts...

  1. I am expecting around 160. Can I get a branch at IIT Kharagpur?

  3. @ Chandan... The cut-off is being estimated at a little over 200. I talked to a handful of students after the JEE, and most of them were of the opinion that the paper was simpler. Acc., 160 is a bit too less for a rank, unless you get really lucky.
    (Though, there should not be any difficulty in clearing the subject-wise cutoffs)

  4. Is there any chance of the cut-offs to fall below last years'?

  5. Going by the relative simplicity of JEE this year and the high-scoring pattern, it is very unlikely that the overall cut-off will dip. Though, it is possible that the subject cut-off for Mathematics might be a little lower than last year's.

  6. I am getting 144 in JEE in total, so I dont think I stand any chance. I wanted to know what prospects are there in getting around 20000 AIR in AIEEE. Also can you tell what rank I can get in AIEEE, if I can get 144 in JEE?

  7. And thanks in advance..

  8. There is absolutely no link between the score you get in IITJEE and in AIEEE. JEE is more challenging and needs high comprehending and analytical skills. On the contrary, AIEEE demands speed and accuracy at a lower difficulty level. But it is also true that four times as many students appear for AIEEE.
    The best thing to do at this point is to prepare youself for it rather than think about what rank you could get.
