Exam Day Essentials
Candidates must carry a printed copy of their downloaded JEE Advanced 2025 admit card, along with a valid original photo identity proof. Acceptable IDs include Aadhaar Card, Voter ID, PAN Card, Passport, or Driving License. Only those presenting both a valid admit card and photo ID will be permitted to take the examination.
Dress Code and Banned Items
To ensure a smooth and secure testing environment, strict dress code and item restrictions have been enforced. Candidates should wear simple clothing, avoiding any jewelry like rings, bracelets, earrings, nose pins, or religious items such as charms or taweez. Only sandals or chappals are allowed, as shoes and closed footwear are prohibited. Caps and jackets are also not allowed inside the exam hall.
Electronic gadgets, including mobile phones, smartwatches, Bluetooth devices, and headphones, are strictly prohibited, along with wallets, goggles, handbags, and any kind of printed, blank, or handwritten paper. Calculators, electronic pens, and log tables are also banned.
Exam Hall Rules
Candidates must remain in the examination hall for the full duration of each paper and cannot leave before 12 pm for Paper 1 and 5.30 pm for Paper 2. Attendance in both papers is mandatory, as only the responses of candidates who complete both papers will be evaluated.
The JEE Advanced 2025 will feature questions designed to test comprehension, reasoning, and analytical ability across three sections: physics, chemistry, and mathematics. Some questions may carry negative marking for incorrect responses, adding to the challenge.
Important Note for Latecomers
