The JEE Advanced 2022 offers special relaxation to candidates who appeared for Class XII Board Qualifying examination in the year 2020. This one time relaxation is offered keeping in view the outbreak of Covid-19. The notification reads as mentioned below:
“One-time measure for those who first appeared in class 12th in 2020
As a one-time special measure due to the ongoing pandemic, candidates who appeared in class 12th (or equivalent) examination in 2020 for the first time are also eligible to appear for JEE (Advanced) 2022 PROVIDED they satisfy the following two criteria simultaneously: (i) The candidate should have appeared ONLY ONCE for JEE (Advanced), either in the year 2020 or 2021; OR, have NOT appeared in any paper in both JEE (Advanced) 2020 and JEE (Advanced) 2021. (ii) These candidate(s) should appear/should have appeared in JEE (Main) 2022 and meet the cut-off score of the top 2,50,000 successful candidates (including all categories) for qualifying for JEE (Advanced) 2022 in their respective category.
This one-time measure is applicable to ONLY those candidates for whom the appearance in JEE (Advanced) 2022 will be their first or second attempt and is NOT applicable to candidates who appeared for their class 12th exam for the first time before 2020.
No candidate will be allowed to appear in JEE (Advanced) more than two times. Further, these candidates would be considered in addition to and not as part of the total number of candidates who would qualify from JEE (Main) 2022 for appearing in JEE (Advanced) 2022. Criteria 5 would be applicable to these candidate(s).
This is a one-time measure valid only for JEE (Advanced) 2022. These candidates must confirm their eligibility for appearing in JEE (Advanced) 2022 by visiting the official website (https://jeeadv.ac.in) and filling in the requisite information.”
