Applicants who have passed the 12th standard with subjects in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry from a recognized board are entitled to participate in the JEE examination. The maximum number of attempts permitted to appear in the JEE exam is 3 times that of three consecutive years after the completion of the 12th standard.
