Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur has uploaded at least seven links to download the Joint Entrance Examination Advanced (JEE Advanced 2025) response sheets on the official website, jeeadv.ac.in. Only candidates who obtain the minimum prescribed marks will be awarded a rank. The JEE Advanced rank list 2025 is prepared based on the aggregate marks obtained by the candidates in the IIT entrance exam.

The competition to get into IITs has remained tough over the years, as only 1 in 10 secure a seat in these top engineering colleges. Last year, a total of 17,695 seats were up for grabs in IITs through the JoSAA counselling process, while nearly 1,86,584 candidates competed to secure a seat. Of which, 26.8% qualified and only 9.83% were allotted a seat in IITs.

Now that the JEE Advanced response sheet 2025 are out, candidates will be able to predict their chances of getting admission through the JoSAA counselling held for 23 IITs, 31 National Institutes of Technology (NITs), Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (IIEST) Shibpur, 26 Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIITs) and other institutes.

As per the schedule, the JEE Advanced 2025 answer key will be uploaded on the official website, jeeadv.ac.in, on May 26 at 10 am. The final answer key and JEE Advanced results 2025 will be published on June 2 after reviewing the challenges.
