Five subjects will be taken into account for calculation of percentile and normalization of qualifying examination marks for paper 1 (BE /B.Tech) and paper 2 (B.Arch /B. Planning) of JEE Main. These subjects are:
Language, Physics, Mathematics, Any one of (Chemistry, Biology, Biotechnology, Technical Vocational Subject), any other subject.
In case, a candidate has appeared in six subjects in the qualifying examination, the subject (fifth or sixth) with better marks will be considered. All the very best and good luck. -
