JELET 2025 Selection Process
The JELET exam tests candidates’ knowledge through paper-based multiple-choice questions evaluated by OMR:
Two separate papers are held:
- Paper I for diploma holders in Engineering/Technology, B.Sc., D.Voc., and B.Voc.
- Paper II for diploma holders in Pharmacy.
Paper I comprises 100 questions subdivided into Category 1 (1 mark each with negative marking) and Category 2 (2 marks each, no negative marking) covering Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Electrical & Electronics Engineering for a total of 120 marks.
Paper II consists of 100 MCQs for pharmacy candidates.
