Will JEE Main April/May 2021 be Conducted in August/ September?

With the second wave Covid-19 pandemic turning out to be a health emergency in India, the Ministry of Education postponed JEE Main April & May 2021 exams that are scheduled to be conducted from April 27 to 30 and May 24 to 28. While Phase 1 & 2 were conducted in February and March, there will be a big delay with regard to the Phase 3 & 4 exams. As most of the states, CBSE & CISCE postponed Class 12 exams, this will clearly have an impact on JEE Main 2021. The April and May exams are expected to be delayed till August/ September, as most of the board exams may happen in July. It is highly unlikely that board exams will happen in June.

If state governments/ central government take the decision to cancel Class 12 board exams in June, then JEE Main April/ May 2021 can be conducted in July & August. However, cancelling Class 12 exams will be the last option for the government. This decision may be taken only if the second wave Covid-19 pandemic becomes disastrous in the upcoming months. Students are advised to continue with the exam preparation.
