As of now, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has not yet unveiled the JEE Main Deleted Syllabus for 2024. The JEE Main exam syllabus traditionally aligns with the content covered in CBSE Class 11 and 12 NCERT books. Prospective candidates eagerly await the official release of the JEE Main Syllabus 2024 PDF to gain insights into the specific topics and sub-topics encompassing Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics.
However, it's worth noting that some online reports hint at a potential alteration in the JEE Main Syllabus PDF for 2024. These speculations arise from the rationalization of NCERT textbooks and the recent reduction in the NEET 2024 Syllabus. Notably, NCERT has streamlined and revised portions and chapters within Class 11th and 12th books for Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, rendering the syllabus more succinct and logical.
Here's a breakdown of the changes in NCERT books:
- Physics NCERT: Removal of specific topics spanning Class 11th and 12th.
- Chemistry NCERT: Elimination of entire chapters and deletion of certain topics.
- Mathematics NCERT: Retention of all chapters with minor topic deletions from Class 11th and 12th.
In a parallel development, NTA has introduced a reduced syllabus PDF for NEET 2024. Notable changes include the exclusion of the 'Communication System' chapter in Physics and the removal of nine chapters in Chemistry, covering topics such as s-block, metallurgy, hydrogen, environmental chemistry, chemistry in everyday life, polymers, surface chemistry, solid state, and states of matter.
With these adjustments in mind, it is highly anticipated that NTA will also release a revised JEE syllabus. This will provide candidates with the opportunity to review the JEE Main 2024 reduced syllabus, and further details will be available for reference here.
