Polymers and biomolecules had some tricky questions, said, students. Numerical-based questions from physical chemistry were tricky. Inorganic chemistry had questions mostly from NCERT.
While physics was the easiest paper and questions were asked from electrostatics, magnetism, current electricity, and modern physics. Few numerical-based questions had lengthy calculations but were easy and few fact-based questions were asked from class 12 chapters of NCERT. About five to six questions were asked about electricity and magnetics and a good number of questions were from mechanics, units, and dimensions, and two questions were from optics, waves and sound, and modern physics.
There was a total of 90* questions and the Total marks of JEE Main Paper-1 was 300. (* 5 out of 10 questions were to be attempted from Numerical Based section in each subject). The paper had three parts & each part had two sections. Students were given plain papers for rough work. There was tight invigilation as per students and No errors were reported in the question papers. Proper social distancing was followed at the exam centre.
