The May session exam will be held after a gap of almost 25 days. Although NTA has not issued any clarifications over the dates yet. The Joint Entrance Exams or JEE Mains 2021 was postponed due to the the second wave of COVID-19 infection. But since the situations of pandemic are improving in the country, the NTA is now considering to hold exams.
Similar to JEE Mains, several other national level entrances are on hold since a long time. Exams like NEET UG, CUCET and UPSC were postponed in past couple of months. Dates for all this exams can be expected very soon once NTA makes a final call over the JEE exam. It might be possible that Education Ministry allows the Agency to announce dates for NEET UG 2021 and JEE mains 2021 simultaneously.
