JEE Advanced 2019 was conducted on 27th May 2019 and this is the first of its kind conducted in the online mode. Slightly over 245,000 students were qualified to appear for the exam, but only over 173,000 registered for the exams (Excluding Odisha as the Ministry of Human Resource Development extended the last date of online registration to 14 May, 2019, due to the ‘Fani’ cyclone. Paper 1 was conducted in the morning 9.00 to 12.00 hours and Paper 2 was conducted in the afternoon 14.00 to 17.00 hours.
The students had the opportunity to try out the interface before the examination through the model tests hosted by the JEE Advanced website. The online exam required no knowledge of operating the computers except clicking the mouse. The questions inside each section were shuffled; the students were free to start from any section they wanted and to move across sections or questions.
Paper 1
The paper as a whole was moderately difficult as per students. No new pattern of question was seen. But the question pattern was, of course, different from any of the previous years. There were 18 x 3 = 54 questions altogether and the total marks were 62 x 3 = 186.
The numerical answer type questions could have up to two decimal places to be entered using an onscreen numeric key pad.
The question pattern is as shown below:
| Type of questions | No. Of questions | Negative marking | Total marks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single Correct type | 4 | -1 | 4 x 3 = 12 |
| One or more than one Correct options type* | 8 | -1 | 8 x 4 = 32 |
| Numerical answer type | 6 | 0 | 6 x 3 = 18 |
* One or more correct option(s) type questions awarded partial marks, detailed instructions to this effect were provided to the students.
Physics
In the Physics part, questions were of moderate difficulty level. The representation from almost all chapters was there in the paper. With Mechanics and Electromagnetics having a fat chunk of marks, and only one question asked from the chapter Modern Physics. Optics was also under represented in this paper.
The difficulty level of the paper and the topic wise segregation are depicted below:
Chemistry
In general questions in this section required in depth understanding of concepts and the extra skill of correlating multiple concepts. As usual Inorganic questions were easier to solve compared to the other two areas of Chemistry. Unlike previous years, there was almost equal distribution of questions from the three areas of Chemistry. One or more correct option(s) type questions consumed large amount of time. Concept mixing made the Organic questions highly challenging.
The difficulty level of the paper and the topic wise segregation are depicted below:
Mathematics
The Mathematics part of the paper was of medium difficulty level. Few questions required lengthy solving, including the ones from Trigonometry; rarely direct questions from Trigonometry pose difficulties. Algebra had a fair representation in the paper. Integral calculus was under represented against all expectations with Algebra having the usual share in the JEE Advanced 2019 paper.

Paper 2
Paper 2 of JEE Advanced 2019, was considered more difficult than paper 1. Mathematics was harder and Physics was ranked the secondharder; but Chemistry part was quite okay.
The question pattern: there were 18 x 3 = 54 questions altogether and the total marks were 62 x 3 = 186. The question pattern was similar to that of Paper 1, except that the Single correct questions were replaced with Two set of Matching List type.
The question pattern of the JEE Advanced 2019 – Paper 2 is as shown below:
| Type of question | No. Of questions | Negative marking | Total marks |
|---|---|---|---|
| One or more than one Correct options type* | 8 | -1 | 8 x 4 = 32 |
| Numerical answer type | 6 | 0 | 6 x 3 = 18 |
| Matching List (single correct) type | 4 | -1 | 4 x 3 = 12 |
* One or more correct option(s) type questions awarded partial marks, detailed instructions to this effect were provided to the students.
Paper 2
Physics
Compared to Paper 1, the second paper was a little difficult. Equal participation from Optics and Mechanics were there in paper 2. Also, a new style of matching list was introduced in paper 2 which was confusing for Students. Matching list type questions were asked from the Heat and Thermodynamics chapter. Again, Modern Physics and Properties of matter were meagerly represented in paper 2.
The difficulty level of the paper and the topic wise segregation are depicted below:
Chemistry
Paper 2 was almost similar to paper 1 in terms of difficulty level distribution. In few of the Organic Chemistry questions there were extension of concepts beyond the scope of the syllabus.Inorganic Chemistry part was comparatively easier and time saving.
The difficulty level of the paper and the topic wise segregation are depicted below:
Mathematics
The Mathematics portion in paper 2 was tougher than in paper 1. The paper included lesser moderate questions than difficult questions. The easier questions were a scarcity in the paper and some of the medium level questions required longer calculations. Also, the new style of matching list was introduced in paper 2 which was confusing for Students.Overall, students would have felt depressed after paper 2 Mathematics.
