About Exam
The Joint Entrance Examination (Advanced) 2022 [JEE (Advanced) 2022] will be conducted by the seven Zonal Coordinating IITs under the guidance of the Joint Admission Board 2022 (JAB 2022). The performance of a candidate in JEE (Advanced) 2022 will form the basis for admission to the Bachelors, Integrated Masters, and Dual Degree programs (entry at the 10+2 level), mentioned in clause 2, in all the IITs in the academic year 2022-23. The decisions of JAB 2022 will be final in all matters related to JEE (Advanced) 2022 and admission to IITs in the academic year 2022-23.
Indian nationals who wish to appear for JEE (Advanced) 2022 are required to write / have written the JEE (Main) 2022 paper for admission to B.E./B.Tech. programs conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA).

Through JEE (Advanced), IITs offer admission into undergraduate courses leading to a Bachelors, Integrated Masters, Bachelor-Master Dual Degree in Engineering, Sciences, or Architecture. Both Bachelors and Masters degrees are awarded to candidates enrolled in the dual degree programs upon successful completion of the course curriculum requirements. In some of the IITs, students enrolled into the 4-year Bachelors program have the option to pursue B.Tech. (Honors) and/or B.Tech. with Minors. Dual Degree students may also pursue a Minor. Further, in some IITs, B.Tech. students also have the option to pursue Interdisciplinary Dual Degree, with Bachelors in the parent Department and Masters in some other Department. All the above options require fulfilment of certain academic performance related criteria. The types of academic programs offered at IITs and their minimum duration are given below
B.Tech | Bachelor of Technology | 4 years |
B.S. | Bachelor of Science | 4 years |
B.Arch | Bachelor of Architecture | 5 years |
Dual Degree B.Tech.- M.Tech | Dual Degree Bachelor of Technology and Master of Technology | 5 years |

Criterion 1 - Performance in JEE (Main) 2022
Candidates should be among the top 2,50,000 successful candidates (including all categories) in B.E./B.Tech. Paper of JEE (Main) 2022. The percentages of various categories of candidates to be shortlisted are: 10% for GEN-EWS, 27% for OBC-NCL, 15% for SC, 7.5% for ST, and the remaining 40.5% is OPEN for all. Within each of these five categories, 5% horizontal reservation is available for PwD candidates.
The following table shows the order to be followed while choosing the top 2,50,000 candidates in various categories based on the performance in B.E./B.Tech. paper of JEE (Main) 2022.
Category-wise distribution of top 2,50,000* candidates (Criterion 1)
Order | Category | Number of "Top" candidates | |
---|---|---|---|
1 | OPEN | 96187 | 101250 |
2 | OPEN-PwD | 5063 | |
3 | GEN-EWS | 23750 | 25000 |
4 | GEN-EWS-PwD | 1250 | |
5 | OBC-NCL | 64125 | 67500 |
6 | OBC-NCL-PwD | 3375 | |
7 | SC | 35625 | 37500 |
8 | SC-PwD | 1875 | |
9 | ST | 17812 | 18750 |
10 | ST-PwD | 938 |
*The total number of candidates may be slightly greater than 2,50,000 in the presence of "tied" ranks / scores in any category.
Criterion 2 - Age limit
Candidates should have been born on or after October 1, 1997. Five years age relaxation is given to SC, ST, and PwD candidates, i.e., these candidates should have been born on or after October 1, 1992.
Criterion 3 - Number of attempts
A candidate can attempt JEE (Advanced) maximum of two times in two consecutive years.
Criterion 4 - Appearance in Class XII (or equivalent) examination
A candidate should have appeared for the Class XII (or equivalent) examination for the first time in either 2021 or 2022 with the subjects Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Candidates who had appeared in Class XII (or equivalent) examination, for the first time in 2020 or earlier, are NOT eligible to appear in JEE (Advanced) 2022, unless covered by the one-time special measure set out below.
Note: By appearance in Class XII (or equivalent) examination, it is meant that the board concerned declared the result for that year irrespective of whether or not examination was conducted. It will be considered as an appearance even if the result of a particular candidate got withheld.
However, if the examination Board of Class XII (or equivalent) declared the results for the academic year 2019-20 on or after October 15, 2020, then the candidates of that board who appeared for their Class XII exam in 2020 are also eligible to appear in JEE (Advanced) 2022, provided they meet all the other eligibility criteria. In case the examination Board of Class XII (or equivalent) declared the results for the academic year 2019- 20 before October 15, 2020 but the result of a particular candidate was withheld, then the candidate will not be eligible to appear in JEE (Advanced) 2022.
Relaxation in Criteria as a special case for JEE (Advanced) 2022
One-time measure for those who first appeared in class 12th (or equivalent) examination in 2020/2021 AND successf ully registered for JEE (Advanced) 2021 but did NOT appear

However, they must successfully register for the JEE (Advanced) 2022 in the online registration portal and pay the registration fee. Further, these candidates would be considered in addition to and not as part of the total number of candidates who would qualify from JEE (Main) 2022 for appearing in JEE (Advanced) 2022.
