Students from one of the centres reported that Mathematics took the longest to complete, while Chemistry was the quickest to finish. Repeat students noted that the overall difficulty level of JEE Main was similar to that of the previous year.

One candidate exiting the examination centre recommends that those scheduled to appear for JEE Main 2025 in the coming days should focus on solving Previous Year Questions (PYQs) and taking Mock Tests, particularly for the Physics section.

There were fewer Organic Chemistry reactions, while the Physical Chemistry section was well-balanced. However, the Maths and Physics questions were on the more challenging side, said one student coming out from an examination centre in Noida, Uttar Pradesh.

Another student noted that, compared to last year, the Physics section was more challenging, while Chemistry was easier.
