JEE Main Session 2 Exam 2023 Analysis: Paper Pattern
The paper had three parts and each part had two sections:
Part-I- Physics had total 30* questions – Part-I had 20 multiple choice questions with single correct answer and Part-II had 10 numerical based questions out of which only 5 were to be attempted. The marking scheme for multiple choice questions was +4 for correct response, -1 for incorrect response, 0 for not attempted. The marking scheme for numerical based questions was +4 for correct response and 0 in all other cases. The total marks of this section were 100.
Part-II- Chemistry had total 30* questions – Section-I had 20 multiple choice questions with single correct answer and Section-II had 10 numerical based questions out of which only 5 were to be attempted. The marking scheme for multiple choice questions was +4 for correct response, -1 for incorrect response, 0 for not attempted. The marking scheme for numerical based questions was +4 for correct response, -1 for incorrect response and 0 in all other cases. The total marks of this section were 100.
Part-III- Mathematics had total 30* questions – Part-I had 20 multiple choice questions with single correct answer and Part-II had 10 numerical based questions out of which only 5 were to be attempted.

JEE Main Session 2 Exam 2023 Analysis: Exam Difficulty Level
Difficulty level as per the feedback received from the students on 15th April 2023 (Forenoon Session).
Mathematics – medium level. Questions were asked from all the chapters with more weightage to Calculus and Algebra. Questions asked from almost all chapters of Limit and Continuity, Differentiability, Indefinite and Definite Integration, Application of Derivative, Area, Differential Equation in Calculus. Algebra chapters cover complex numbers, the binomial theorem, progressions, matrices and determinants, mathematical logic, statistics, permutations and combinations. Multiple choice questions from Vectors, 3D Geometry, Matrices, Probability. Mixed concept questions were asked from Parabola, Circle, Ellipse. There was a long calculation in the numerical section. Some questions were described as long and difficult.
Physics – Easy level. More importance is given to the chapters of class XII. Questions asked from Kinematics, Gravitation, SHM, Heat & Thermodynamics, Circular Motion, Rotational Motion, EM Waves, Electrostatics (Dipole), Communication Systems, Magnetism, AC Circuit, Current Electricity, Modern Physics, Ray & Wave Optics. Numerical based questions were lengthy but easy.
chemistry – Easy to moderate level. Inorganic had more weightage as compared to physical and organic chemistry. Numerical based questions were mostly from Physical Chemistry – Solutions, Thermodynamics, Chemical Kinetics, Ionic Equilibrium. Questions were also asked from S&P Block, Coordination Compounds, Titrations, Chemistry in Everyday Life, Solid State, Ores and Metallurgy.
