A total of 22 students from 12 states have filed a case against the Joint Admission Board (JAB) for changing the number of attempts for Joint Entrance Examination (JEE), Advanced from two to three, and then back to two in less than a month.
Petitioners have claimed that they had cleared their class 12 exams in 2023 and were already enrolled in engineering colleges, but they started preparing for JEE Advanced 2025 as and when the number of available attempts increased from two to three. This preparation included submitting JEE Main 2025 application form fee, coaching classes’ fee, and spending money on test series, study materials/ books and other preparatory courses.
