Joint Entrance Exam or JEE is an entrance exam conducted for students who are interested in pursuing career in fields of Electronics, Engineering, and Architecture & Planning. JEE is held in two phases.
The first phase is JEE Mains which is conducted for admission in NITs, IIITs, and CFTIs only. Furthermore, the Mains consist of 2 papers, i.e. Paper 1 and Paper 2. Students can apply in either of these papers or in both. Paper 1 is specifically for admission in B.E. and B.Tech courses only. Paper 2 is conducted for admissions in B. Arch. and B. Planning. The students who have cleared the JEE Mains can appear in JEE Advance. Recently, it had been notified by the MHRD minister Prakash Javedkar that starting from 2019 JEE will be conducted by an autonomous government body known as NTA which was earlier undertaken by CBSE.
