JEE Main 2024: Shift 1 paper analysis
Ajay Kumar Sharma, National Academic Director, Engineering Aakash Educational Services Limited has shared the review:
The JEE MAIN paper of April 9, 2024 (Morning Shift) was Easy to Moderate level. In this paper, Chemistry and Physics were on the easy to moderate level whereas Mathematics paper was a bit lengthy. A detailed subject wise analysis is given below.
Chemistry
The paper was by and large based on NCERT books. All the chapters were duly represented in the paper. Few questions were based on memory-based data and were confusing. Questions from prominent chapters like Electrochemistry, Hydrocarbons, Chemical Kinetics and Chemical Bonding were asked. Overall coverage of the chapters was uniform.
Physics
According to a good number of students, Physics part was of easy level. Questions from Mechanics, Current electricity was duly represented in the paper. The distribution of questions asked from 11th and 12th class syllabus is almost equal. 3-4 questions in Physics are asked from Thermodynamics.
Mathematics
Mathematics paper was moderate to difficult based on students’ feedback. Questions were not that difficult but a bit calculative. Questions from Coordinate Geometry, Differential equations, Complex number, Vectors and 3D were there in the paper. Almost all the topics were covered. Again, practice through mock tests holds the key.
Overall, it was a balanced paper which can be solved in the stipulated time. Average students found Mathematics a bit lengthy. The paper was somewhat easier than other shifts conducted in this phase. The difficulty level wise order according to a large section of students is Mathematics > Chemistry > Physics.
