Anta Assamey Posted September 11, 2020 Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 JEE Main Result 2020: National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced the JEE Main results 2020. Students who took the exams between September 1 and September 6 can check their results on jeemain.nta.nic.in. New Delhi: The results for Joint Entrance Examination (Mains) - the country's premier engineering entrance test - have been declared by the National Testing Agency, the nodal body for engineering and medical entrance exams. In the test, which had to be postponed twice because of the coronavirus pandemic, 24 students have scored 100 percentiles. Telangana has the greatest number of students with 100 percentiles at 8; the national capital Delhi is on the second spot with 5 top scorers followed by Rajasthan (4), Andhra Pradesh (3), Haryana (2) and one candidate each from Gujarat and Maharashtra. The JEE-Mains was conducted from September 1 to September 6 in several shifts to prevent transmission of coronavirus among aspirants. Several precautions - including staggered entry and exit for candidates, sanitisers at gates, distribution of masks and maintaining social distance as candidates queued up - were taken across the country, as directed by the Central Government. The National Testing Agency had increased the number of exam centres to avoid crowding. While 8.58 lakh candidates had registered for the exam that provides meritorious students an opportunity to study in premier engineering institutes like IITs, NITs and Centrally Funded Technical Institutions (CFTIs). 74 per cent of the total applicants appeared for the test. Political leaders like Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and the chief ministers of several states had opposed the Centre's decision to conduct the exam despite rapidly growing virus cases in the country. They had been demanding that the test - which involves lakhs of students - be deferred to a later date. The Supreme Court had given the test - and medical entrance Exam NEET- a go-ahead as it dismissed a plea seeking deferment, and said a precious year of students cannot be wasted. 2.45 Lakh students have cleared the JEE-Mains exam. They are now eligible to appear for JEE-Advanced, which is scheduled on September 27. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
