— Per NTA guidelines, candidates should bring a clear photo ID to the JEE exam centre, with the Aadhaar card being the preferred option, provided the photo is current. If their Aadhaar has been updated, a colour printout of your e-Aadhaar is also acceptable.
— It is advisable to carry at least two colour printouts of the admit card. One copy will be submitted at the exam centre, and the other should be kept safe for future reference (result/counselling).
— Candidates will receive six A4-sized rough sheets in the JEE exam hall. If additional sheets are needed, they can request more. After the exam, they must place their admit card and rough sheets in the designated drop box. Failure to do so may result in their results being withheld.
— Adhere to the dress code on the day of the JEE Main exam. Avoid clothes with large buttons, shoes with thick soles, or metal jewellery. The safest choices are sandals or slippers.
