I passed 12th in 2023-2024 but I could not take JEE Advanced in 2024. Can I take JEE Advanced in 2025 and 2026?

Ans: Hello Dear.
You mentioned that in 2024, you passed 12th but did not mention about JEE (Mains) score. The Candidate is eligible to appear for JEE (Adv) if and only if he/she qualifies in JEE (Mains). You can appear for JEE (Adv) in 2025 provided you must clear JEE (Mains) 2025 with the required cut-off. I suggest you focus on the 2025 exam and not think about 2026. But you can appear in 2026 also provided you cleared all the norms laid for the IIT institution.

I have given three attempts for JEE Mains but did not give JEE Advanced. My percentage in 12th is low so can I repeat 12th and give two attempts for JEE Advanced
Ans: Hello dear.
Question- If you passed 12th in 2024, then how you appeared JEE (Mains) 3 times? I guess, 2 times in 2024 and 1 time in Jan 2025. Now it means, you have already given three attempts for JEE Mains, which means you have likely passed 12th more than two years ago. Since you didn't attempt JEE Advanced before, you cannot take it now because your eligibility period has ended. Repeating Class 12th won't reset your JEE Advanced eligibility.
But I would like to suggest: (1) Appear for the state-level engineering entrance examination (2) Take admission to a good college (3) Crack GATE in the final year of engineering and then do a PG in IIT from any prestigious institution. Even you can think of other Exams like BITSAT, VITEEE, SRMJEEE, WBJEE, COMEDK, etc.

Sir, I had passed my 12th(pcb) in 2023 from Maharashtra board...was preparing for neet but unfortunately couldn't make it. Now I'm planning to switch my career to engineering..so for that i need to add maths.. Can i give an isolated maths exam of hsc board exam next year in feb/march & then appear for mhtcet(pcm)..Will i be eligible?! .. I have few important doubts:- 1)if i pass isolated maths..i will get another marksheet..so i will have 2 marksheets..one of 12th pcb(2023) & one of isolated maths(2026)..so will this cause any problem during admission in engineering colleges of maharashtra? I mean will two seperate marksheets be accepted during cap counselling for engineering admission? 2)If i score well enough in mhtcet(pcm)2026..Can I do btech cse from top engineering colleges of maharashtra like coep pune or vjti?! Or any other engineering colleges of maharashtra. 3) Do i need to repeat full class 12th via NIOS(i mean do i need to appear for all subjects again from open board),or is appearing for only maths enough through maharashtra hsc board via isolated exam. . Please guide me sir, I want to follow the correct path and avoid wasting another year.Your response would mean a lot to me.
Ans: Hello dear.
Here is the pointwise reply to your questions: (1) The Maharashtra HSC Board allows isolated subject improvement like Maths. Once you clear it, you'll be eligible for MHT CET (PCM). (2) Will having two separate mark sheets cause problems? - No, it won’t be an issue. During CAP counselling, you can submit your 2023 HSC PCB marksheet and your 2026 Maths marksheet. They are accepted together for eligibility as long as all subjects are cleared from a recognized board (MSBSHSE). (3) You can get admission to top colleges like COEP or VJTI if and only if you clear Maths (HSC) and score high in MHT CET PCM. (4) There is no need to repeat the full 12th via NIOS. Just appearing for Maths as an isolated subject from the Maharashtra board is enough. Our final suggestions are as follows: (a) prepare seriously for HSC Maths (2026), (b) focus on MHT CET PCM 2026, (c) you’re eligible for engineering admissions once both are cleared, and (d) avoid NIOS unless you want to change all subjects (which is not necessary in your case).
Good luck!

Sir, my son secured JEE mains 28055 crl rank and 22000 crl in Advanced. In JAC counselling round 3, he got Electrical Engineering in NSUT and through Josaa counselling: CS in IIIT, Una, Himachal Pradesh. His domicile is Delhi. Kindly recommend which one to choose. Regards
Ans: Netaji Subhas University of Technology’s B.Tech in Electrical Engineering is AICTE-approved, NBA- and NAAC-accredited (CGPA 3.62 A+), taught by PhD-qualified faculty in advanced power-electronics, control-systems, and high-voltage labs, and records an 80–95% placement rate over the past three years with branch-specific recruiters including Google, Microsoft, and prominent PSUs. IIIT Una’s B.Tech CSE, AICTE-approved and NBA-accredited, features specialized AI/ML, full-stack, and cybersecurity labs under research-active faculty, with an average package of ?11.02 LPA and a 82.95% overall placement rate in 2025, supported by top recruiters such as Amazon, Deloitte, and Qualcomm. Both institutes maintain strong alumni networks, mandatory internships, and dedicated placement cells, but NSUT excels in core-electrical infrastructure and PSU engagements, while IIIT Una offers deeper software-industry exposure and slightly higher CSE-specific median packages.

Recommendation:
If your son seeks core-electrical engineering roles, robust PSU placement drives, and a legacy campus within Delhi domicile, recommendation is NSUT Electrical Engineering. For broader software and data-science careers, cutting-edge computing labs, and competitive CSE placements, choose IIIT Una CSE. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
