Hello,

yes according to the new rules jee mains will be conducted twice in a year and u can give two exams in the same year.

this might be helpful,

The gateway examinations for two most conventional and popular courses for students, JEE (Main) and NEET, will now be conducted online twice a year, by the newly formed National Testing Agency (NTA). This decision was announced by the HRD minister, Prakash Javadekar on July 7, 2018.

The JEE (Main) will be conducted in January and April, and NEET will be held in February and May, respectively.

Taken by the sudden change in the process, there’s a sigh of relief as the students won’t have to skip an entire year to appear for the examination again. Students can appear both times and the best score out of both (in cases where the student has appeared for the exam both the times) will be counted for the admission processes.

So far, the CBSE used to conduct NEET for Medical Council of India and the Health Ministry & National Eligibility Test (NET) for University Grant Commission. But now, both these exams will be conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA). The JEE (Advanced) main, however, will continue to be conducted by the IITs.

Exams will be held over many days and students will get to choose a date of their convenience and choice. And, if a student appears for the JEE (Main) and NEET both times, the best of their two scores will be taken into account.

“The main feature is that students will not lose one year because there will be two examinations before admission. He/she can appear in either of the two, or both. The best score will be taken into account for the result,” Javdekar tweeted .

This change would give students more choice and lessen their stress as a result of “single exam conducted on one single day in the year. This will give more chances to students, thereby giving adequate opportunity to bring out his/ her best,” according to a statement by the government.

The NTA will conduct all exams online in order to benefit all students and give chances to test their aptitude twice a year. For students from rural areas, NTA would locate centres at sub-district/district levels for training. The basic structure of the examinations from structure to fees to format will all remain the same. The entire timetable with dates to apply and the exam itself will be uploaded on the official website of the ministry.
