Primary answer

Students who wish to pursue B.E. or B.Tech programs through JEE Main must have studied Mathematics as a subject in their Class 12 or equivalent examination. Candidates who studied Biology without Mathematics are generally not eligible for engineering programs through JEE Main. However, they may still be eligible for other entrance examinations related to medical or life science courses. Therefore, students planning to pursue engineering should ensure they take Mathematics in Class 12.
