NTA has made JEE Main Session 2 schedule keeping in mind the 12th board exam. Due to a clash with the CBSE board exam 2024, the session 2 dates were changed earlier. It will be held between April 4 to April 15, 2024, in two shifts. The first shift exam will be held from 9 am to noon. Whereas, the second shift examination will be conducted between 3 pm to 6 pm.

Students preparing for JEE Main should know the difference between exam city slips and admit cards. The exam city slip is issued only for information about the exam city. It cannot be used as an admit card. JEE Main Admit Card 2024 will be released a few days before the exam. Entry will not be allowed inside the examination center without the admit card.
