JEE Main
JEE Main is one of the most important national-level engineering entrance examinations in India, conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA). It assesses a student’s understanding of core subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, and serves as a gateway to admission in premier engineering institutions across the country. Held twice a year—typically in January and April—JEE Main allows candidates to appear in one or both sessions to improve their scores and enhance their chances of securing a top engineering seat.
The scores obtained in JEE Main are used for admissions to prestigious institutes including NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs, as well as several reputed private engineering colleges. Additionally, top-performing candidates in JEE Main qualify to appear for JEE Advanced, which is mandatory for admission into the IITs. With expert guidance from Bodmas Education, students receive comprehensive support in exam understanding, college selection, counseling, and admission strategy—ensuring the best possible outcomes based on rank, budget, and long-term career goals.
