JEE Advanced format & timing

Apply through the applicable IIT undergraduate entrance route.

What the test involves

The verified 2026 exam has two compulsory computer-based papers, each covering physics, chemistry and mathematics.

This reference is limited to the cycle or details stated below. Do not assume an unannounced year follows the same rules.

Paper 1

3 hours

Paper 2

3 hours

Both papers are required. Read the instructions for each question type; marking is not a single universal JEE Main-style formula.

Scores and what happens next

  • A rank or qualification does not by itself allocate a seat.
  • A Main starter quiz is not an Advanced mock; no full validated Advanced practice bank is claimed here.
