What is JEE Advanced?

The Joint Entrance Examination (Advanced) 2023 [JEE (Advanced) 2023] will be conducted by the seven Zonal Coordinating IITs under the guidance of the Joint Admission Board 2023 (JAB 2023). The performance of a candidate in JEE (Advanced) 2023 will form the basis for admission to the Bachelor?s, Integrated Master?s and Dual Degree programs (entry at the 10+2 level),  in all the IITs in the academic year 2023-24. The decisions of JAB 2023 will be final in all matters related to JEE (Advanced) 2023 and admission to IITs in the academic year 2023-24.
