JEE Main is one of the most crucial examinations for every engineering student. To crack this exam, one needs to have lots of information regarding various aspects of JEE Main. It is very important to know about the weightage of each subject in the JEE main syllabus so that students can streamline their preparation accordingly.
Candidates can check the previous year’s question papers for Physics, Chemistry, and Maths syllabus weightage of JEE Main to know which topics may have a higher number of questions. The topics with a higher weightage have to be given more importance but the candidates are advised to study all of the topics mentioned in the JEE Main syllabus.
We will be providing you with a guide to the complete syllabus and weightage of each topic so that you can devote your time to those topics accordingly.
