JEE Advanced 2015 Solutions & Paper Analysis

JEE Advanced 2015 was held on 24th May, 2015 and saw approximately 1.22 lakh candidates from over 350 centers across India appearing for papers 1 and 2. This year, the exam saw a change in the marking scheme, with an additional total weightage to the paper, and increased negative marking. The exam, which usually consists of 350 marks, carried a weightage of 504.

Candidates mentioned after the exam that the paper pattern was unexpected. There were multiple-choice questions, but the questions had more than one correct option. Candidates also expressed their concern about the negative marking, since it was difficult to decide whether to answer a question they were unsure about. Students found the math section to be particularly difficult.
