The Joint Entrance Examination, commonly known as JEE, is a computer-based test (CBT) taken for the admission of students in the Engineering and Architecture colleges of India.

The online application process is separated into two parts:

1. JEE Main Online Application 
2. JEE Advanced Online Application

The first level is the JEE (Main) and the official body, National Testing Agency (NTA), organizes this exam every year. It comprises two papers, namely Paper 1 and Paper 2. The first paper is for the admission of B.E. and B.Tech programs in National Institutes of Technology (NITs) and Centrally Funded Technical Institutions(CFTIs) and all the other institutes of the participating States. The second paper (Paper 2) is for admission to B. Arch and B. Planning courses in various Indian institutes.

JEE Main is also the qualifying test to sit for JEE Advanced (second level of JEE), conducted for admission to the 23 Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).

As per the official notification of NTA, there will be two sessions of the JEE Main 2024 for admissions in the academic session 2024-25. It is not compulsory for the students to appear for both sessions. However, if a candidate sits for both JEE Main sessions, the best scores among the two sessions will be considered for the merit list.
