The National Testing Agency (NTA) has wrapped the JEE Main 2025 session 2 for Paper 1 (BE/BTECH) on 4 on the day of examination. The remaining three days of the April session are scheduled for 7 April, 8 and 9. The NTA will operate Paper 1 (BE/B.Tech) on 7 and 8 April, while Paper 2A (Burch) and Paper 2B (Bipling) will be held on 9 April. The April 7 examination is being conducted in two shifts. Check the paper analysis for both changes below:
JEE Main 2025 Paper Analysis
Check out a detailed analysis of the dawn shift paper of 7 April:
Physics
Physics section was easier to moderate. Most of the questions were numerical and formula-based. Important chapters included mechanics, modern physics, electrostatics, ray optics and units and measurements. There were no questions from fluid, wave optics or electromagnetic induction. While some questions were required to be carefully calculated, most were direct and scoring.
chemistry
Chemistry was the easiest of three subjects. Many questions were statement-based and simple. Organic chemistry had the highest weightage, followed by inorganic, and physical chemistry. The questions of chemical kinetics and solutions appeared in physical chemistry. Most theory questions were directly from NCERT, and numerical problems were limited.
Mathematics
Maths was the most difficult and time -consuming section. There were more questions in subjects such as 3D geometry, vectors and coniferous classes, while matris and calculus were low. Many problems were long and calculated, which gives a big challenge to time management.

Physics
The Physics section bent towards the easy side, but was a proper part of moderate level problems. Most of the questions were numerical and formula-operated, which required accurate and quick memory. Mechanics, units and measurements, electrostatics and optics were the major themes. Interestingly, there were no questions from electromagnetic induction (EMI), and only from some oscillations, waves, magnetism and thermodynamics. Some calculations were about to take some time, but nothing was complicated.
chemistry
Chemistry was the easiest section. A significant number of straight, statement-based questions made this part relatively quick to try. The paper covered almost all the subjects, leading to a weightage with organic chemistry, which was implicated by the inorganic. Physical chemistry appeared minimalized with some questions on chemical kinetics and solutions. Most theory questions were directly removed from NCERT, and even the physical chemistry bent more to the principle than mathematics-based problems.
Mathematics
Mathematics demanded the most effort in terms of time. While questions were quite distributed in chapters, subjects such as 3D geometry, vectors and coniferous classes were given the most attention. In contrast, Matriss and Calculus saw light coverage. Many problems were calculated and intensive, making time management an important factor. For many students, this section was the most tedious.
