I am studying Diploma course in Chemical Engineering stream. I want to appear for IIT JEE entrance examination after the completion of my Diploma course. I want to know if i can do so or not?

I would like to suggest you to appear in Lateral Entry Entrance Exam to get admission in directly second year of engineering course after completion of your diploma in Mechanical Engineering with minimum 15 percent marks.
It would be better for you to appear in lateral entry entrance exam rather in GEE exam.

After completion of diploma in chemical engineering you are eligible to appear in LEET, JELET etc exams to get admission directly in 2nd year of engineering course.
Only diploma holders are eligible to write later entry entrance examinations.
Minimum age limit should be 18 and maximum should not exceed 27 years.

JEE stands for Joint Entrance Examination. It has two stages:

1. JEE Main.

2. JEE Advanced.

Diploma candidates are only eligible for JEE Main exam. Depending upon your JEE main score and rank, you can get admission in colleges like NIT, IIIT, and other government engineering colleges.

But you will not be eligible for Advanced stage even if you clear Main exam for admission in Indian Institute of Technology.

Unfortunately, IITs don't offer any lateral entry admission in B.Tech degree courses. Therefore, getting admission for diploma holders is not possible because only first year admission is offered through JEE.

You have to look for other exams like LEET/JELET/DET for admission in second year of the B.Tech degree course.

No, you are not eligible to appear in JEE Main examination after completion of your three years Diploma in Chemical Engineering course. To be eligible to appear in JEE Main examination, the candidate must have completed 12th standard with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry subjects from a recognised board. Since, you have not pursued 12th standard, being a Diploma holder, you are not eligible to appear in JEE Main examination.

Yes, diploma in Chemical Engineering candidates are eligible for IIT JEE exam.

If you have completed 12th standard from a recognized board with physics, chemistry and mathematics with above 50% marks then you are eligible for IIT JEE exam. 5% marks relaxation is provided for SC/ST category candidates. You can apply consecutively for 3 years.

Your age should be in between 17 to 25 years.

No, I am sorry to say that you are not eligible to appear for IIT JEE entrance examination on your Diploma basis as the minimum eligibility requirement in order to appear for IIT JEE examination is that a candidate should have completed his/her 12th boards from a recognized University and should have scored a minimum of 55% in aggregate.

Therefore, as you have not studies your +2 classes, therefore I am sorry to say that you are not eligible .

You are not eligible to appear for your IIT JEE examination on the basis of your Diploma degree.

You should have studied at +2 level in order to be eligible to appear for the above mentioned entrance examination as Diploma holders are not eligible for it.

No you are not eligible for appearing in the Joint Entrance Exam on the basis of your diploma because there is no such scheme for the diploma candidates. The eligibility for appearing in the Joint Entrance Exam is 12th class from any recognized school.
However you can appear in the JEE exam if you have completed your 12th standard before joining the diploma course. You can apply for the JEE on the basis of your 12th qualification.
My suggestion to you is that you should complete your diploma first and then apply for the bachelor degree in chemical engineering. After completion of your bachelor degree you will be a chemical engineer.

No.

Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) is conducted by IIT every year for admission to B.Tech.

Only 10+2 or its equivalent examination with PCM or PCB are eligible for JEE.

Diploma is not equivalent to 12th, so you aren't eligible after diploma.

No,any student completing diploma in any branch is not eligible for writing the JEE(Joint Entrance Examination) conducted by the IIT(Indian Institutes of Technology).JEE is the entrance exam conducted to get admission in IIT or NIIT.The educational eligibility for JEE is 10+2.So,any diploma student of any branch are not eligible but you can write CET exams like ECET,JET etc conducted by the State Board of Technical Education to get into any university or private colleges for B.Tech or B.E in the respective state.

No you are not eligible for the JEE(Joint Entrance Exam) only 12th pass candidates in science stream are eligible for JEE Entrance.so, no diploma holder eligible for JEE exam.
