• Mock test papers are only the replica of the actual exam paper while JEE Main Previous Years’ question Papers are the actual question papers that the candidates of the previous years attempted in the exam centre.  

• After the exam is held, the official body on their website releases the previous year's question papers so that the students can refer to them for their own preparation.
