A Twitter user, Renu, seemed unhappy with the decision and said that October 3 is too late and will result in a delay in the start of the academic session.

@DG_NTA is it true that #JEEAdvanced is on oct 3?

Isnt it too late? @dpradhanbjp
It means counselling cant happen before mid nov abd sessions cant start till Dec 2021.
I hope now students don't demand further postponement.

A NEET aspirant asked the minister if JEE Advanced can be delayed till October then NEET aspirants should also be given a chance; NEET 2021 should also be postponed till October.

Agar #JEEAdvanced Oct me hoh sakti hai aur students ko itna time diya jaa raha hai toh #NEETUG2021 bhi Oct me honi chahiye. We also want time. Don't be biased‼️ @dpradhanbjp @DG_NTA #PostponeNEETUGtoOCT @EduMinOfIndia @nsui @PMOIndia
