For the Education Minister's webinar on December 10, students across the country have started asking about JEE Main 2021 and NEET 2021 date and syllabus. While some students have asked for a postponement of the Engineering and Medical entrance exams, others have urged Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank' not to postpone the entrance exams. Usually, the National Testing Agency (NTA) conducts the first phase of the JEE Main exam in January.

A PTI report last month quoted an official saying that the first shift of JEE Main 2021 is likely to be held in February instead of January.

The Education Minister previously directed the NTA to draw up a fresh syllabus for competitive and entrance exams it will conduct in 2021.

Another student has asked for a postponement of board exams.

Many students have asked the Education Minister for a third attempt of the IIT admission test -- JEE Advanced.

“Please give third chance to droppers to appear in Jee Advance 2021. The pandemic caused a lot of stress and disturbance in studies,” another student said.

The decision to hear students' feedback was taken in a review meeting chaired by Mr Pokhriyal. In the meeting, it was decided that the Education Ministry will hear from students, parents and teachers about how to conduct board and other exams in 2021.

“With all that has happened this year, we humbly beg you to postpone both Boards and JEE/NEET to at least May of 2021, so that we could prepare ourselves to give our very best,” another student wrote, using #EducationMinisterGoesLive.

“Because of online education it has become difficult for students to understand lessons. They require more time for preparing themselves. It is my humble request to postpone CBSE exams & also reduce syllabus for JEE,” a student asked Mr Ramesh Pokhriyal.

A student said that JEE Main and NEET are “crucial exams” and syllabi should not be reduced. “You may postpone the exams but I urge you not to reduce the syllabus of competitive exams,” he said.
