Conquer JEE Advanced.
The toughest exam, mastered.

Adaptive preparation, weakness detection, daily recovery and AIR prediction — purpose-built for the two-paper, problem-solving grind that decides who gets into the IITs.

The JEE Advanced exam pattern
JEE Advanced is two compulsory, computer-based papers — Paper 1 and Paper 2 — each 3 hours (180 minutes), covering Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. The 2026 structure is asymmetric: the two papers carry different question counts but the same marks, summing to 360.

Across both papers: 102 questions · 360 marks. JEE Advanced uses a mix of question types — and the marking varies by type.
MCQ — single correct
+3 correct−1 wrong

One option correct. Standard negative marking for a wrong choice.

MCQ — multiple correct
+4 fullpartial credit−1 wrong (2026)

One or more options correct. Partial marks for picking only correct options; any wrong selection now carries a penalty.

Non-negative integer
+4 correct0 wrong

Type the numeric answer. No negative marking — but no guessing your way in either.

Matching-list
+3 / +4−1 wrong

Match items across two lists. A single combined option is correct; negative marking applies.

Who can sit it
Qualify JEE Main first

You must rank among the top ~2.5 lakh JEE Main qualifiers to be eligible for JEE Advanced.

Max 2 attempts

Permitted in two consecutive years only — there's very little room for a slow start.

Rotating IIT

Conducted by a different IIT each year. For 2026 the organising institute is IIT Roorkee.

Note: JEE Advanced does not pre-publish a fixed mark scheme — the exact per-type marking and question split are released on exam day and can change year to year. The pattern shown above reflects the 2024–25 papers and current 2026 announcements; treat it as indicative, not a guarantee.
Mock library
DCS Rank JEE Advanced mock library — 180 mocks
Six tiers, all tuned to JEE Advanced difficulty — from subject drills to full two-paper Elite AIR simulations. Each tier mirrors real paper size and timing so your practice scales to the real thing.

How DCS mocks are built: the DCS engine is MCQ-only — every question is single-correct, scored +4 / −1. We mirror JEE Advanced paper size and timing (the 54-question, 180-minute Paper-Sim and Elite tiers match a full paper) rather than reproducing every official question type. That keeps grading instant and unambiguous, so every attempt feeds your rank prediction cleanly.
The loop
From every mock to a sharper rank
A score on its own doesn't move you up the AIR list. What moves you up is what DCS Rank does after each mock — predict, diagnose, and rebuild.
🎯

AIR prediction

Every Elite AIR and Paper-Sim mock updates your projected All-India Rank and percentile, calibrated to JEE Advanced difficulty — so you watch your rank move, attempt by attempt.

🔬

Weakness detection

We pinpoint the exact concepts and question types bleeding marks — not "Physics is weak," but which idea inside it — across both papers and all three subjects.

🔁

Daily recovery plan

A focused daily queue of targeted practice, auto-built from your weak concepts, so you close gaps while they're fresh and never let a leak compound.
