Sir please tell that if I get admission in college other than iit or not and the I give 2026 jee mains and adv and clear it Then will I be able to get admission in it??

Ans: Pranav, Yes, you are eligible to appear for JEE Main and JEE Advanced in 2026 after repeating Class 12 from the Bihar board and passing in 2025, regardless of your earlier CBSE attempt in 2023. As per the official eligibility, candidates can attempt JEE Main for three consecutive years starting from the year of their latest qualifying exam, and only those who passed Class 12 in 2024, 2025, or are appearing in 2026 are eligible for JEE Main 2026. For JEE Advanced 2026, you must have passed Class 12 for the first time in 2025 or 2026 and be among the top 2,50,000 JEE Main qualifiers, with a maximum of two consecutive attempts allowed. Repeating Class 12 and appearing for the exam in 2025 resets your eligibility window, so you can validly apply for both JEE Main and Advanced in 2026, provided all other criteria are met. The recommendation is to ensure your 2025 marksheet and exam details are correctly entered during registration, as your 2023 CBSE attempt will not impact your eligibility for 2026 attempts. Have back-ups apart from JEE. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Zeyaad, The year of passing Class 12 is vital for BTech admissions at DTU, NSUT, and similar institutes that use JEE Main but have distinct eligibility criteria. According to the latest guidelines, students who passed 12th in 2024, 2025, or will appear in 2026 are eligible for JEE Main 2026; no age bar applies for these attempts. DTU and NSUT specifically require a minimum aggregate (usually 60%) in PCM and accept JEE Main scores for entry through JAC Delhi, without the three-year restriction on the “first attempt” rule found at NITs/IIITs. Thus, if you passed 12th in 2024 and reappear in 2026 (regular board), you can list your new 2026 mark sheet and become eligible for JEE Main 2026 and subsequent DTU/NSUT BTech admissions, as long as you meet subject and percentage requirements. Your newest (2026) 12th result will be recognized, and the application will be accepted—colleges only verify that you meet academic eligibility and appear in JEE Main for the relevant year. Institutes focus on your current, valid marksheet and JEE Main scorecard for the year you seek admission, not previous years’ attempts, and allow students to improve through repeat attempts in Class 12.

Recommendation: You are eligible to take JEE Main in 2026 using your new 12th mark sheet from 2026, and, if you achieve the required PCM percentage, you may use this result to apply for DTU/NSUT and similar colleges through JAC Delhi—making further BTech admission viable, with no bar due to previous attempts. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Securing a compartment in Mathematics poses a noteworthy challenge for students aiming primarily at JEE or other competitive engineering entrance exams. I recommend considering a Psychometric Test to uncover career paths that align optimally with your strengths and interests, rather than focusing solely on JEE or engineering entrances, though clearing the Mathematics subject remains essential for broader opportunities. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Ans: You did not mention the JEE 2025 score or percentile. You can get admission to IIT / NIT / NSUT if you fulfill the required cutoff criteria. Since your first attempt was in 2025, you can only appear for JEE (Adv) in 2026. There will be no further opportunity to take JEE (Adv). However, with a strong JEE score, you may secure a seat in NIT/NSUT. (Basically, we do not recommend taking a drop for various reasons. The chances of success are generally low or moderate in most cases.)

Good luck.
