Last update: Nov 20, 2024
The National Testing Agency (NTA) has released the Joint Entrance Examination Main (JEE Main) answer key for the January 2024 session. Candidates can access the JEE Mains 2024 answer keys for papers 1 (BTech and BE) and 2 (BArch and B Planning) on the official NTA websites, jeemain.nta.ac.in and nta.ac.in. Until February 9, candidates will have the opportunity to object to the JEE answer key.
Previously, the testing organization had announced that the answer key challenge window would close on February 8. However, NTA extended the deadline due to a technical glitch in the server. Along with the Joint Entrance Exam Mains solution key for papers 1 and 2, NTA has also provided the question papers with recorded answers.
Candidates are required to pay a non-refundable processing charge of Rs 200 for each contested question. The final answer key will be released after considering the complaints raised by test-takers. The JEE Main 2024 session 1 result is scheduled to be announced on February 12.
The first JEE Mains 2024 session was conducted by NTA from January 24 to February 1. Out of the 12,21,615 candidates who registered, a total of 11,70,036 candidates appeared in the JEE Mains paper 1.
