The wait for the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main 2025 Session 2 results is expected to end today, April 17, 2025, as per the official notification from the National Testing Agency (NTA). Lakhs of aspiring engineers who appeared for the examination held between April 2nd and April 9th are eagerly awaiting their scores and ranks. The official website, jeemain.nta.nic.in, is expected to be the primary platform for accessing the results.
The JEE Main 2025 Session 2 examination for Paper 1 (B.E./B.Tech.) was conducted on April 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 7th, and 8th, 2025, across 531 centers in 285 cities within India and 15 international cities. Paper 2 (B.Arch./B.Planning) was held on April 9th, 2025. Following the conclusion of the exams, the provisional answer key for Paper 1 was released on April 11th, 2025, allowing candidates to raise objections until April 13th, 2025.
Candidates and coaching centers are anticipating the release of the final answer key along with the results today. The final answer key will incorporate any revisions made based on the objections raised by the candidates on the provisional key. The results will be prepared based on this final answer key.
Once the NTA declares the results, candidates will be able to check their scorecards by following these steps:
Candidates are advised to verify the following details on their JEE Main 2025 Session 2 scorecard:
It’s crucial for candidates to understand that the NTA follows a normalization process to ensure fairness across the different shifts in which the JEE Main examination is conducted. This process converts the raw marks obtained by candidates into NTA percentile scores. The percentile score indicates the percentage of candidates who have scored equal to or below a particular percentile.
In cases where two or more candidates secure the same NTA score, the NTA employs a tie-breaking policy to determine their ranks. The tie is resolved based on the following order of preference:
What After the JEE Main Session 2 Results?
The JEE Main 2025 Session 2 results will determine the eligibility of candidates for the JEE Advanced 2025 examination, which is the gateway to the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs). Candidates who secure the required cut-off in JEE Main will be eligible to register for JEE Advanced.
Additionally, the scores obtained in JEE Main are also used for admissions to National Institutes of Technology (NITs), Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIITs), and other Government-Funded Technical Institutes (GFTIs). The Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) will conduct a centralized counselling process for admissions to these institutes based on the JEE Main All India Rank (AIR).
Expected Cut-off Trends:
While the official cut-offs will be released along with the results, experts anticipate a slight increase in the qualifying cut-offs for JEE Advanced this year, potentially due to higher participation. Last year, the general category cut-off for JEE Advanced was 93.23 percentile.
The declaration of the JEE Main 2025 Session 2 results is a significant milestone for engineering aspirants across the country. It marks the culmination of months of hard work and preparation. Candidates are advised to remain patient and keep checking the official website for the latest updates from the NTA. We wish all the candidates the very best for their results!
