India Today
JEE Advanced 2022: Candidates who had been unable to appear for the IIT entrance exam in 2020 and 2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic can now appear for an extra attempt in 2022.
Students who had been eligible to appear for JEE Advanced, the IIT entrance exam, in the pandemic years of 2020 and/or 2021 and could not appear for them would now be eligible to appear for JEE Advanced 2022 without the need to appear for JEE Main 2022. The news for the JEE extra attempt was announced by the Joint Admissions Board (JAB).
Students of 2020 had earlier been offered this extra JEE attempt in 2021 and the move has now been repeated, considering the fact that the Covid-19 pandemic hasn’t completely gone away yet and is now seeing a sharp rise in cases due to the Omicron variant.
