The first point to be noted is the change in pattern. Last year, parts Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics in the Paper I were divided into three sections of 10 questions, 5 questions, and 5 questions respectively. This year, each part had only two sections of 10 questions each.

Difficulty Level
The number of easy, medium, difficult questions in paper 1 are as given below.
| Physics | Section 1 – One or more than options | Easy | 2 |
| Medium | 5 | ||
| Difficult | 3 | ||
| Section 2 – One integer value correct | Easy | 2 | |
| Medium | 4 | ||
| Difficult | 4 | ||
| Chemistry | Section 1 – One or more than options | Easy | 5 |
| Medium | 2 | ||

| Section 2 – One integer value correct | Easy | 1 | |

| Section 2 – One integer value correct | Easy | 1 | |
| Medium | 7 | ||
| Difficult | 2 |
There were 20 questions for each subject. On an average, candidate could devote 3 minutes to each question. This time there were no single option correct type questions at all. Half of the questions were of multiple option correct type, and half were single integer answer type.
Multiple option correct type questions – Although the questions of multiple option correct type were not largely difficult, but students tend to be uncomfortable about such questions. If for example, the question has two correct answers, but candidate could identify only one option, then no marks is awarded to that answer. In such a case, candidate loses valuable time and marks.
Single integer correct answer – Again, this genre of questions is not liked by students who prefer to arrive at answers by eliminating options. The answer options are 0-9, so a candidate can hardly guess the answer. The probability of marking answer correctly, purely by guess is almost nil.
Chemistry Analysis
| Chemistry | Class XI | Class XII | Total | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Easy | Medium | Difficult | Easy | Medium | Difficult | ||
| Physical Chemistry | 1 | 4 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 7 |
| Organic Chemistry | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 3 | 6 |
| Inorganic Chemistry | 0 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 2 | 7 |
| Total | 2 | 4 | 2 | 2 | 4 | 6 | 20 |
The paper can be termed as tricky and more towards the difficult range.
Last year’s paper was comparatively easier. It could be said that IIT JEE Advanced has become tougher than before.

IIT JEE Advanced Paper 2 Exam
The paper 2 of JEE Advanced is also tougher as compared to last year. The questions were calculations based, and eliminating options to get to the correct answer was not recommended.
NPAT 2019 Registrations Open - Apply Now!!The JEE Advanced exam analysis for paper 2 can be said to be that it was easier than paper 1. This paper had 60 questions, 20 each from Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. It was favorable for students as it had single option correct type questions.
Students generally prefer to attempt, and are more comfortable with attempting single option correct type questions, as they have faced such problems during preparation, as well as in mock tests, other engineering entrance exams.
Match the following type questions – Like last year, this year too questions where match the options was given. It was expected that such questions will be asked, and thus it did not hold many surprises for the students.
Paper 2 was a sigh of relief for the students, who were quite flustered by Paper 1 that had all multiple options correct type questions.
OVERALL ANALYSIS
- Total questions – 120 (60 in paper 1 and 60 in paper 2)
- Easy questions – 40
- Moderately difficult questions – 40
- Difficult questions – 40
