I know IIT is not everything but why JAB shows so irresponsible behaviour. They released official press release regarding 3rd attempt for JEE advanced on 5th November. Why they reverted their decision on 18th November. Is it not illegal by showing us false hope for 3rd attempt of JEE advanced. Even UPSC is also one of the toughest exam in India still UPSC have 6 attempts. Then why JEE advanced has only 2 attempts. Why they are stopping us for giving JEE advanced 3rd time? What's your opinion about this? Do you agree on my point or not?

Ans: Welcome back.
I would like to request you, instead of criticizing the decisions taken by related authorities, just focus on your studies. If you are interested in cracking JEE, then you have to follow the rules laid down by the respective institutions. You have no right to compare the rules between the two authorities. I would like to suggest that, if you won't be able to crack the JEE (Adv) in 1st attempt, then choose a different career path. Because 99% of students won't get success in their 2nd or so-called 3rd-attempt. Now, please focus only on your studies. If you failed to crack the 1st attempt, then please communicate with us again. At that time, I would suggest you more options.

If satisfied, please like and follow me.
If dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
Thanks.

Hello sir i gave jee adv 2025 and qualified it with a average score . According to the last year cutoff i can get admission in iit kgp and iit kanpur . This year was my drop year . Sir i was thinking about the decision that jab made in november that we can write jee advanced for 3 consecutive years but later they pulled out that decision and continued the 2 years policy again ..sir is there any chance that jab can intruduce that 3rd year policy this year ? As i think jab can not do this kind of stupid stuff for fun . There might be some reasons like students taking drop out from nits that can disturb nits curriculum or anything else . Sir kindly reply is there any chance please ?
Ans: After a detailed review of the most recent and authoritative sources, the Joint Admission Board (JAB) initially announced in November 2024 that candidates could attempt JEE Advanced three times in three consecutive years, but reversed this decision on November 18, 2024, restoring the original rule of only two attempts in two consecutive years. The Supreme Court intervened to grant a special exception only for those students who, relying on the initial three-attempt announcement, dropped out of their courses between November 5 and November 18, 2024; these students alone are eligible for a third attempt in 2025. For all other candidates, including those who took a drop year and are now eligible for their second attempt, the two-attempt policy remains firmly in place. While there is ongoing agitation and legal petitions from students seeking reinstatement of the three-attempt rule, as of now, there is no official indication or precedent that JAB will reintroduce the third attempt policy for 2025 or beyond, and the Supreme Court has upheld JAB’s discretion on this matter. Therefore, you should proceed with your current options, as the likelihood of a policy change this year is extremely low, and planning for a third attempt would be unrealistic under the present regulations. All the BEST for your Prosperous Future!
