JEE Main 2026 Exam Pattern & What to Expect?
JEE Main Session 2 will test candidates on key subjects like Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics through objective multiple-choice questions. The exam serves as a gateway for admissions to:
- B.Tech programmes at NITs, IIITs and GFITs
- B.Arch and B.Planning programmes (with subject-specific papers)
Results will be based on candidate performance in both sessions, and candidates can leverage better scores from either Session 1 or Session 2 for admission merit.

Post-exam, NTA will release an unofficial as well as an official answer key, followed by the final result. Scores are expected to be compiled and declared online. Qualified candidates may participate in subsequent admission counselling rounds coordinated by the respective authorities for engineering and architecture seats.
