Exam Centers and Venue

After the JEE Main admission test was canceled in December 2019, the exam date was announced as January 24, 2020. The exam was scheduled in two shifts, in which the morning shift (9:30 AM to 1:30 PM) is conducted from a different venue and the afternoon shift (3:00 PM to 6:30 PM) from the same venue.

The shift timings are decided by the National Testing Agency (NTA) so that students can find convenient timings.
