JEE Main Session 1 Schedule:
The first session of JEE Main 2026 is scheduled from January 21 to 30, 2026, with exams taking place in various cities and time slots. The list of exam centres will be released in the first week of January 2026, followed by the admit cards on the official NTA website. The Session 1 results are expected to be announced by February 12, 2026.
Missed the JEE Main Session 1 Deadline? Here’s Your Backup Plan
If you weren’t able to apply for Session 1, there’s no need to worry. The NTA will reopen registrations for JEE Main Session 2 in early January 2026. This gives new candidates another chance to apply and lets previously registered students take the test again to improve their scores.
Skipping Session 1 doesn’t affect your eligibility. In fact, many students choose to sit only for Session 2 as it gives them more time to prepare, fits better with their board exam schedule, or simply feels more convenient. Scores from either session or the higher of the two will be used for admission to NITs, IIITs, GFTIs, and for determining eligibility for JEE Advanced.
