Amid complaints about discrepancies in the provisional answer key—including incorrect answers, blank response sheets, and mismatched responses—the NTA issued a clarification, addressing the concerns raised by students, parents, and educators.

With an increase in the number of test-takers this year, experts predict a slight rise in the JEE Main 2025 cut-off compared to previous years.

No, the final answer key for JEE Main 2025 has not been released yet. Candidates are advised to regularly check jeemain.nta.nic.in for updates.

The JEE Main 2025 results will be compiled based on the revised final answer key. According to the NTA, no individual candidate will be informed about the acceptance or rejection of their answer key challenges. The final answer key, reviewed and confirmed by subject experts, will be binding.

“The NTA has always followed a transparent examination process, which allows candidates to view their recorded responses as soon as the provisional answer keys are released. The NTA considers every challenge to the provisional Answer Key with utmost seriousness…The answer key challenge process is a key part of ensuring a fair and reliable system for all candidates. The purpose of the ‘answer key challenge’ process is to remove any anomaly and ensure fairness,” the NTA said.

“The score is determined by only the final answer key. Drawing conclusions based on the provisional answer keys is not desirable. The NTA would like to advise and inform candidates that they should not be misled by reports that create unnecessary doubt and anxiety,” it said.

Students can access the JEE Main final answer key on the official websites — nta.ac.in and jeemain.nta.nic.in — once released. To download it, candidates must log in using their application number and password.
