A New Beginning for JEE Apex Board

The JEE Apex Board is reinstated with the objective of achieving a seamlessly administered JEE Main and JEE Advanced. In the wake of the conclusion of the previous JAB mandate, this reconstitution is aimed at enhancing the efficacy of these prestigious entrance exams.

The Role of Key Entities

The official notification specifies distinct roles for essential entities:

  • National Testing Agency (NTA): NTA will manage technological support and administrative logistics, ensuring the smooth execution of the JEE entrance exams.

  • Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC): C-DAC will be entrusted with back-end activities, overseeing various tasks including pre and post-examination processes, and the submission of applications.

Authority and Responsibilities

The JEE Apex Board will hold the ultimate authority, responsible for establishing policies, rules, and regulations that govern the conduct of the entrance exam. This means that the JAB will have a pivotal role in shaping the future of JEE Main and JEE Advanced exams.

Moreover, the JAB will also be responsible for coordinating the JEE Advanced exams in collaboration with the conducting institute.

A Crucial Educational Pathway

The JEE Main exams play a pivotal role in determining admissions to prestigious engineering programs offered by the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), National Institutes of Technology (NITs), and other Centrally Funded Technical Institutions (CFTIs). Students who successfully clear the JEE Main exams will earn the eligibility to apply for the even more competitive JEE Advanced exams.
