JEE ADVANCED 2015 (24-May-2015)

QUESTION PAPER DIFFICULTY LEVEL ANALYSIS OF PAPER 1&2

The most prestigious entrance exam of engineering in India, JEE Advanced (Previously known as IIT-JEE) has
th
been conducted on 24 May 2015 with paper 1 (in 10 codes, code-0 to 9) from 9am to 12pm and paper 2
from 2pm to 5pm across the nation.

Paper-1 had total 60 questions; 20 in each subject, out of which 8 questions were of Numeric Response
Type with having 4 marks for each correct answer and no negative marking for any wrong answer, 10
questions were of Multiple Correct Option Type with having 4 marks for each correct answer and -2 marks
for each wrong answer and remaining 2 questions were of Column Matching Type with having 2 marks for
each correct answer and -1 mark for any wrong answer. It is clearly visible that, this paper had 50% multiple
option correct type questions and because of this, it would be difficult to score marks in this paper.

Paper-2 had total 60 questions; 20 in each subject, out of which 8 questions were of Numeric Response
Type with having 4 marks for each correct answer and no negative marking for any wrong answer, 8
questions were of Multiple Correct Option Type with having 4 marks for each correct answer and -2 marks
for each wrong answer and remaining 2 questions were of Paragraph Type with 2 multiple choice questions in
each paragraph with having 4 marks for each correct answer and -2 marks for any wrong answer. This was
definitely a lengthy paper with having 60% multiple choice multiple correct type questions. This year JEE
Advanced paper setter has changed all the possible code theories of analysts.

Over all this years JEE Advanced paper would be a low scoring paper, framing of questions were very
confusing. Many of the multiple choices multiple correct answer type questions had only single answer
correct which must have confused students and student would have left many of such questions because of
fear of losing marks.
This years JEE Advanced exam was overall an ABOVE AVERAGE exam.
