About the NTA JEE Mains Session I Syllabus

If you are preparing for JEE Mains Session I, the first document you need is the official syllabus from NTA. This page shows you how to read it and plan around it.

JEE is the national level engineering entrance test. JEE Main is used for the NITs, IIITs and many state colleges, and JEE Advanced is the gateway to the IITs.

Keep the official syllabus PDF open while you read this page; the link is in the Important Links table. If our summary and the syllabus ever differ, the syllabus is right.

NTA JEE Mains Session I Exam Pattern and Syllabus at a Glance

Exam date as per the facts we have: 28 Jan 2027.

Treat the list below as a starting point; the official syllabus may add, remove or rename topics.

Subject-wise Preparation for JEE Mains Session I

Most exams of this type are built around the following areas. How much each carries is written in the official exam pattern.

• Physics: Numerical practice with concepts from the NCERT books of Class 11 and 12.
• Chemistry: Physical, organic and inorganic parts need different methods. Revise reactions and periodic trends regularly.
• Biology or Mathematics: Depends on your stream. NCERT lines and formula revision give the safest marks.
• General test or language section: That applies only where the notice lists it, so check the paper scheme before you start.

How to Turn the Official Syllabus into a Study Plan

• Download the latest syllabus PDF from the official link and save it on your phone
• Copy every topic into a notebook or a sheet, one line per topic, with a column for done, revised and tested
• Start with the topics that repeat in old papers, because they carry most of the marks
• Check the marking scheme, especially negative marking and sectional time limits, and practise with the same rules
• Re-read the syllabus every month; organisations sometimes revise it between two notices

A Weekly Study Plan for JEE Mains Session I

A steady plan beats a long and tiring one. With about 13 weeks left, divide the syllabus into equal parts and give every part a fixed week.

A simple pattern works for most students: study three hours of new topics, one hour of practice questions and half an hour of revision of the earlier day. Increase the time only when this feels easy.

Previous Year Papers and Mock Tests

Previous papers are the best free guide. Solve them in one sitting, then spend more time on the mistakes than on the score.

After every mock test, write down the questions you got wrong and the reason: concept gap, calculation slip or lack of time. The reason decides what you fix.

Common Mistakes While Preparing

• Collecting many books and finishing none. One standard book per subject and the previous papers are enough to begin
• Studying from an old syllabus. Check the year and the exam name on the PDF you use
• Leaving current affairs for the last month. Read a little every week
• Ignoring the exam pattern. Sectional time limits and negative marking change the way you attempt questions
• Watching lectures without practice questions
