Is there a portion overlap between GUJCET and JEE Main syllabus?

Exam Name

Purpose

GUJCET

• Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board takes it

• You can get state-quota engineering and pharmacy admissions in Gujarat

• Exam subjects for engineering: Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics

• It closely matches the GSEB Class 11 and 12 syllabus

JEE Main

• National Testing Agency (NTA) conducts it

• It is for national-level engineering admissions

• Subjects: Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics

• NCERT Class 11 and 12 syllabus is the base

• Deeper conceptual application

Subjects

Overlapping Topics

Crucial Differences

Conclusion

Physics Syllabus

• Units and Measurements

• Kinematics

• Laws of Motion

• Work, Energy and Power

• Centre of Mass and Rotational Motion

• Gravitation

• Thermodynamics

• Oscillations and Waves

• Electrostatics

• Current Electricity

• Magnetic Effects of Current

• Electromagnetic Induction

• Optics

• Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter

• Atoms and Nuclei

• Semiconductor Electronics

GUJCET = direct formula-based and conceptual questions.

JEE Main includes multi-step numerical problems, concept integration, and higher difficulty levels.

GUJCET Physics becomes easier when you prepare Physics at the JEE Main level.

Chemistry Syllabus

Physical Chemistry

• Mole Concept

• Atomic Structure

• Thermodynamics

• Chemical Equilibrium

• Electrochemistry

• Chemical Kinetics

• Solutions

• Surface Chemistry

Organic Chemistry

• Basic Organic Chemistry

• Hydrocarbons

• Haloalkanes and Haloarenes

• Alcohols, Phenols, and Ethers

• Aldehydes, Ketones, and Carboxylic Acids

• Amines

• Polymers

• Biomolecules

Inorganic Chemistry:

• Periodic Table and Periodicity

• Chemical Bonding

• Coordination Compounds

• p-Block and d-Block Elements

• Environmental Chemistry

GUJCET questions are more theory-oriented and factual, especially in Inorganic Chemistry.

JEE Main requires a strong NCERT retention and application-based reasoning.

You just need to study the NCERT thoroughly for JEE Main and GUJCET.

Mathematics Syllabus

• Sets, Relations, and Functions

• Trigonometry

• Matrices and Determinants

• Permutations and Combinations

• Binomial Theorem

• Sequences and Series

• Limits, Continuity, and Differentiability

• Differentiation and Applications

• Integration

• Differential Equations

• Coordinate Geometry

• Vectors

• 3D Geometry

• Probability

GUJCET questions are generally shorter and more straightforward.

JEE Main problems often require multiple concepts in a single question and higher calculation accuracy.

JEE Main-level practice ensures full coverage of GUJCET Mathematics.

Topics Focused More On in GUJCET

Topics of Primary Focus in JEE Main

• Board-exam-style theory

• Direct numerical problems

• Formula-based questions

• GSEB-specific framing

• Conceptual clarity

• Problem-solving speed

• Logical reasoning in numericals

• Multi-concept integration

• Higher difficulty levels

Benefits of GUJCET & JEE Main Overlapping Syllabi

Misconceptions about GUJCET & JEE Main Syllabi Overlapping
