The National Institute of Technology–Joint Entrance Examination (NIT–JEE) is an entrance examination conducted by the National Institutes of Technology (NITs) in India. It is conducted for admission to various undergraduate engineering and architecture programmes offered by the NITs. The exam is conducted in both online and offline mode. The exam is conducted once a year in the month of April–May.
National Institute of Technology–Joint Entrance Examination (NIT–JEE) Entrance Test
The NIT–JEE is an entrance exam for admission to the undergraduate programs at the National Institutes of Technology (NITs). It is conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA) for admission to various engineering and technology programs at the NITs. The exam is conducted in two stages– the Paper I and Paper II.
The Paper I is held in the month of April and is a Computer Based Test (CBT). The Paper I consists of 75 multiple choice questions from Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Candidates have to attempt all the questions in a duration of 3 hours.
The Paper II is held in the month of June and is a Descriptive Test. The Paper II consists of two essays, one from Physics and the other from Chemistry.
Candidates have to attempt both the essays in a duration of 1 hour. The NIT–JEE is a highly competitive exam and the cut off marks for each NIT varies. Candidates who qualify the entrance exam will be eligible for admissions to their preferred NITs.
