Planning your revision

Choose your paper before collecting resources. For Paper 1, split each broad subject area into the units in the official PDF and keep worked examples beside your revision notes. Architecture and planning candidates should keep aptitude and their specialist component visible in the plan. A topic missing from this short overview has not necessarily been deleted from the exam.

Common questions

Is this the complete official JEE Main syllabus?

No. It is an editorial overview for the labelled cycle. Open the official documents above for every subtopic, paper instruction and exception.

Can I use this for a different exam cycle?

Use it as a starting point, then compare it with the notification for your own attempt. A reviewed older reference does not establish that a later syllabus is unchanged.

Does ticking every topic mean I am exam-ready?
