About JEE-Main

JEE-Main is a National Level B. Tech Entrance Exam conducted by NTA to offer admissions to various U.G. Engineering programs such as B.Tech, B.E, B.Plan, and B.Arch. The JEE-Main scores are accepted by the Top Engineering Colleges in India to offer B.Tech seats to the students along with the AKTU and affiliated colleges. 

Why AKTU UPSEE Exam is Replaced by the NTA JEE-Main Entrance Exam?

It doesn't just happen in one or two days. It has been a matter of discussion for years. The verdict has finally passed to use only JEE-Main scores to fill the B.Tech seats in all the colleges of Uttar Pradesh state. The decision has been made to make entrance exam preparations for students easier as they have to prepare for both UPSEE and JEE Main separately.

Most of the colleges have been accepting the JEE mains exam in Uttar Paradesh as earlier aspiring students of B.Tech course in Uttar Pradesh had to appear in the UPSEE B.Tech Entrance exam to get B.Tech admission in U.P. Many candidates have to appear in UPSEE as well as JEE-Mains to keep their options open. But now, this decision will save the students a lot of time, effort, and preparation and will lift the pressure off their shoulders as they now have to prepare for only one entrance exam for their B.Tech admissions.

The exam is conducted twice a year, and if any student fails in the first attempt can easily go for the second attempt. The first exam is conducted in the month of January and the second in April. In case a student has not scored well on the 1st attempt, he/she can make another attempt in April to improve their scores.
