    IIT- Kharagpur to conduct JEE Advanced on July 3: Education Minister

    The students will have enough time to prepare well for the exam, he said.

  • Pokhriyal also announced that the eligibility criterion of scoring 75% minimum aggregate marks in Class XII has been scrapped, as requested by students.

    "Since we have not been able to completely emerge from the coronavirus pandemic, it has been decided that the 75% marks criterion has been removed this time," he said.

    "This would allow talented candidates to appear for the exam," he added.

    JEE Advanced was then held on September 27.
