Difference between JEE mains and JEE advanced

Difference between JEE mains and JEE advanced

Both JEE Main and Advanced are inter-connected with each other, but their difference cannot be ignored. It is very important for the students to know the difference between these examinations. JEE Main is managed by the NTA where JEE Advanced is regulated by the IITs on a rotation basis. JEE Main is also the eligibility test which allows the students to appear for the JEE Advanced exam. Here, we are providing complete information about Difference between JEE Mains And JEE Advanced.

Difference between JEE mains and JEE advanced JEE Main is conducted for providing admission into BE or B.Tech courses in various NITs & other Institutions all over the country. JEE Advanced is the criteria to get admission in the well-known Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).

Mode of examination

JEE Main Paper consists of two papers: Paper 1 & Paper 2. Paper 1 (B.Tech/BE) is conducted through online (Computer Based Examination) mode. While Paper 2 (B.Arch/B.Planning) is organized through offline (Pen and Paper based examination) mode only.

JEE Advanced Examination consists of two papers: Paper 1 & Paper 2. JEE Advanced exam is held through online (Computer Based Examination) mode only. Students have to appear in both Paper 1 & Paper 2 exam for admission in the engineering courses. Students who wish to get admission into B.Arch programme which is offered by the IITs, they have to pass both Papers 1 & 2 and then apply for the Architecture Aptitude Test (AAT). AAT is conducted by the seven zonal IITs. Students can apply for the AAT exam after qualifying the JEE Advanced Exam.
