JEE Main Session 2 Exam 2023 Analysis: The JEE Main Session 2 Exam 2023 Day 2 Shift 1 was conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA) on April 8 across various exam centers across the country. The examination comprised of three parts – Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. The exam pattern for each part included 30 questions, divided into two sections – Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) with single correct answers and Numerical based questions.
JEE Main Session 2 Exam 2023 Paper Pattern
Part-I – Physics: This section included 30 questions, with 20 MCQs and 10 Numerical based questions. The marking scheme for MCQs was +4 for a correct response, -1 for an incorrect response, and 0 for not attempted questions. The marking scheme for numerical-based questions was +4 for a correct response and 0 for all other cases. The total marks of this section were 100.
Part-II – Chemistry: This section also included 30 questions, with 20 MCQs and 10 Numerical based questions. The marking scheme for MCQs and numerical-based questions was the same as in Part-I. The total marks of this section were also 100.
Part-III – Mathematics: This section included 30 questions, with 20 MCQs and 10 Numerical based questions. The marking scheme for MCQs and numerical-based questions was the same as in Part-I and Part II. The total marks of this section were also 100.
JEE Main Session 2 Exam 2023 Difficulty Level
As per the feedback from students on April 8, 2023 (Forenoon Session), the level of difficulty for each section was:
Mathematics – [Moderate level]: Questions were asked from all chapters of Class XI & XII CBSE Board with emphasis on Algebra & Calculus. Numerical based questions had lengthy calculations, and a few MCQs were reported as lengthy but not tough.
Physics – [Easy]: Questions were asked from Kinematics, Laws of Motion, Rotational Motion, Work, Power & Energy, Error Analysis, Capacitance, Magnetism, Semi-Conductors, Current Electricity, Communication Systems, Modern Physics, and Electrostatics. Numerical based questions were easy, and overall, the students felt this section was balanced and easy.
Chemistry – [Easy to Moderate level]: Organic & Inorganic Chemistry had questions directly from NCERT Books. Physical Chemistry had less weightage, that too in Numerical Section. In Physical Chemistry, questions were asked about Electrochemistry, Ionic Equilibrium, Chemical Kinetics, Chemical Equilibrium, and Atomic Structure. Organic Chemistry had questions from Aldehydes & Ketones, Atul & Alkyl Halides, Amines, Alcohols, Biomolecules, and General Organic Chemistry. Inorganic had questions from Co-ordination Compounds, Chemistry in Everyday Life, Group-18. Few questions from Organic Chemistry were tricky but not tough.
Overall, the paper was of Easy to Moderate level as per students, with Mathematics being Moderate, Chemistry being Easy to Moderate, and Physics being Easy.
