Several students who appeared for the Joint Entrance Exam (JEE) Advanced, the entrance test that forms the basis for admissions to the bachelor’s, integrated master’s and dual degree programmes in the 16 IITs and the Indian School of Mines (ISM), found the physics and mathematics papers tricky, and chemistry simpler.
Students who cleared the JEE Main are eligible to appear for the JEE Advanced.
This year, the chemistry paper was a bit different compared to last year as there were options for matrix match questions, said Sridhar G., managing director, Ace Creative Learning Pvt. Ltd.
Some students said the maths paper was lengthy and they could not complete it. “I was unable to complete the maths paper as it was lengthy and the questions were quite complex,” said Mandara G., a student of Sri Chaitanya Techno School, Yeshwantpur.
Aarish Dakhini from Mahesh PU College, Belagavi, said, “None of the papers was easy, but chemistry was the least complex one.” However, a few students like Chandana R. from Sir M.V. PU College, Davangere, found all the papers simple. “All the papers were good. I am quite happy with my performance and hopeful of getting into the college of my choice,” she said.
