Dear student,
If you get admission in a general seat in any iit/nit/iiit/gfti through iit jee then first you need to pay the fees according to general category only. However each year students have to provide their income certificate to avail tuition fee waiver and the students who had nor availed the facility before but have less family income get a tuition fee waiver. I am a student at one of the nit's, and this is what happens there. So you need to pay the fees initially as a general candidate then if this facility is provided you can have the tuition fee waiver.

hi,

see one can not apply for two reservation category simultaneously. you have to select only one category let it be ews, general or obc ncl. now see ews category has 10% seats reservation,  Non Creamy Layer of Other Backward Classes (OBC-NCL) reservation has 27% of seats. so obc ncl has larger percentage compare to ews. however the chances of securing seats also depends on number of applicants, questions difficulty level, seat matrix etc.

hope it would help.

However basis on previous year's cut-off trends we can help you with the expected qualifying cut-offs for this year :-

Hello !

You need not to worry about the same.

The questions in JEE mains are asked 50% from 11th and 50% from 12th.

So,as of now focus on 12th completely and revise it well. The preparations will end by the end of the year.

Then you can start with basics of 11th again for some months. However,you have to appear boards as well. So keep few months for boards and revise 12th from JEE point of view as well during those months.
You will get nearly 1 and half months after boards for JEE mains preparations. Try to finish the left over portions from 11th during those months and revise the ones you already studied before.

Note- Prepare a standard and smart time-table for yourself for the preparations. Follow the schedule strictly.

Books you need to cover to clear your concepts -

1.NCERT - This is the most important book to cover. Clear all your basic concepts in Physics,Chemistry and Maths from NCERTs. Most of the questions in JEE Mains are asked from NCERT books. However NCERTs have some difficult concepts as well which will take time. So you can prefer Pradeep's Fundamental Physics and Chemistry for 11th and 12th for easy understanding.

2.After NCERTs and Pradeep,start with H.C Verma in Physics and give mock tests. In case of Chemistry you can go for GRB publication books.

3.For Maths,after NCERT,try to finish the important chapters from R.D Sharma or the chapters in which you are good from R.D Sharma. Since R.D Sharma can't be finished easily in short span of time. So go with the chapters you can do well or the chapters which will cover important topics.

4.Give a lot of mock tests and revise well before the exam.
Along with this, check last 5 years JEE questions to understand the pattern and difficulty level. Determine your   weak and strong areas from these papers. Prepare accordingly.

5. Subscribe to a good coaching centre. Appear the mock tests they provide regularly. Clear your concepts and ask doubts to your mentors or go for online clarifications of doubts. Prepare well from the materials they provide you for the preparations.


Have patience and study calmly. You can make it. Perseverance and determination are highly recommended.

Dear student,
The obc ncl certificate should be valid for the year 2021-22, it shouldn't be valid for just one or two months. So i would advice you to get the obc ncl certificate issued as soon as possible. So you do not face any problems in the future. You can submit the current certificate right now but you need to make a new one so get that as soon as possible to be on a safer side.
