JEE Mains 2021 Exam Dates Released by NTA | SISTec BLOG
The Joint Entrance Examination or JEE Mains is a pedestal for students to get admission into top engineering colleges of India. Such entrance exams are considered the most difficult of exams across the globe. Every student from the beginning of his or her higher secondary classes starts preparing for such exam to clear them with a good rank because most of the students have a clear vision about the engineering discipline which he or she wants to pursue. Their only vision is to get an engineering degree from a top engineering institute. With the passion to pursue engineering and get admission into engineering colleges where they can enhance their skills and increase their knowledge through industry-oriented approach and grab an opportunity to get placed into widely recognized core companies on a good designation and handsome packages are the major reason behind attempting such examinations. But the competition is also high because the industry demands are also high to hire a candidate for the roles and responsibilities.
These examinations play a vital role in the career building of students. In the pandemic situation of COVID-19, the JEE mains exams were conducted in 2020 under the authority’s assurance and all necessary precautions were taken during the exams to keep lakhs of candidates safe. During the Coronavirus pandemic, the JEE Mains was conducted on the time frame between September 1 to September 6, 2020. But many students due to the strong possibility of getting affected by COVID-19 did not appear in examinations. The COVID-19 situation may continue after 2020 as well, but education should not stop because no student is going to wait for another year. So in order to take additional precautions, major changes have been done for the JEE Mains 2021.
Dr. Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank, Minister of Education announced that “The National Testing Agency (NTA) will be conducting Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Mains exams four times a year starting February 2021. The first session of the examination is going to be held between 23rd-26th February and the results are also going to be declared within five days from the last date of the examination conducted”.
He also mentioned that “Such a move will ensure that students don’t miss out on opportunities due to clash of exams or due to the COVID-19 situation at present.”
