Hello,

I would like to tell you that every candidate has a maximum of three attempts for JEE Main.

You can appear twice for the entrance test in a year. So this is used in correlation with the original number of attempts, from 2019 onwards, JEE Main number of attempts in total will be six. 

I would suggest you visit the careers360's link given below for more info on this topic in a detailed manner.

You can also follow this youtube video by careers360's for more info

Hii

A candidate can appear in JEE Mains for 3 consecutive years. 
IN 2019 a candidate who would be appearing in 10+2 exam or those who qualified in 2018 or 2017 can be eligible. 
Now that JEE is conducted twice per year from 2019, both the attempts of a year are consired as single attempt.
So you can appear for both January and April session and it will be calculated as 1 attempt only.

Hope this helps
Thanks!!

Hello.

There is no age limit for a candidate to apply for the Jee mains. A candidate can apply for the Jee mains for 3 years after completion of 12th, for example, if you have completed your 12th in 2018, you can write the Jee mains till 2020.

Hope this helps.
