JEE Main mock test pattern
The questions will be marked with different colours -- red for unanswered questions, grey for those questions which have not been visited by the candidate, green for answered questions, purple with a green circle for answers marked for review and purple for unanswered questions marked for review.
NTA forms JEE Main ‘test practice centres' (TPC) to help the candidates take a mock test in a simulated environment with other candidates in an examination hall. This helps the students to get a proper idea about the exam pattern and can overcome any sort of nervousness for the final day. They will also learn time management skills and understand which portion of the exam syllabus they need to study again. They will also become aware of how to attempt the computer-based test (CBT).
The JEE Main mock test results are provided in the registered email id of the candidates.
