Advantages of multiple sessions in JEE (Main) -2021
The advantages of multiple sessions in JEE (Main) -2021 are as follows:
1. This will give candidates multiple opportunities to improve their test scores if they do not give their best in one attempt.
2. On the first try, students will get the first-hand experience taking a test and will know their mistakes, which can improve while you try next time.
3. This will reduce the chances of dropping a year, and the drippers would not have to waste a full year.
4. If someone missed the exam for reasons beyond their control (such as a Board exam), they will not have to wait a full year.
5. A candidate doesn't need to appear in all four sessions. However, if the candidate appears in more than one session, then her best
2021 NTA scores will be considered for merit ranking/list preparation.
The JEE (Main) 2021 exam will be conducted in the "Computer-Based Test" (CBT) mode only, except that the Drawing Test for B.Arch. it will remain in "Pen and Paper" mode (offline).
