Frequently Asked Questions

1.How many questions are in the JEE Main 2023 25th January Evening Shift paper?

This paper has 90 questions in total - 30 each from Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics.

2.Can I practise questions from just one subject?

Yes. Use the Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics tabs at the top of the page to jump directly to that subject's question set within this shift.

3.Is this the same paper for all students who appeared in the evening shift?

JEE Main uses different question sets across shifts and sessions to maintain exam integrity, so this page reflects the specific paper administered in the 25th January 2023 evening shift.

4.Where can I find the morning shift paper for the same date?

The JEE Main 2023 25th January Morning Shift paper is listed separately - you can switch to it from the "JEE Main Paper Wise PYQs" panel, under JEE Main 25th January 2023.

5.How is the JEE Main 2023 25th January Evening Shift paper structured?
