JEE (Main) 2016
A Detailed Analysis (Cut-off, Answer Key, Solution and Subject-Wise Discussion) by Resonance
On 3-April-2016, JEE (Main) 2016 was
conducted for students opting to take this exam by offline mode. This is
the fourth edition of this Exam after wide ranging changes were
introduced in year 2013 by CBSE and Ministry of HRD. Around 12 Lakh
students are slated to appear for this exam in offline and online modes.
JEE (Main) 2016 was conducted in two
parts (Paper 1 and Paper 2). Paper 1 was conducted from 9:30 am to 12:30
pm and Paper 2 for B. Arch. Aspirants was conducted from 2 pm to 5 pm.
Paper 1 was for students applying for
engineering seats in engineering colleges, while paper 2 was for
students applying for B. Arch degrees
The analysis below pertains to only Paper 1, which was for engineering aspirants.
Overall Marks Distribution
The paper pattern was same as last year.
The paper had 90 questions each worth 4 marks. All questions were
objective type with single correct option. Subject wise each subject had
30 questions of 120 marks.
Overall Difficulty Level Analysis
In this analysis we have rated every
question on a scale of 1 to 3. The ratings are done by expert faculty of
Resonance. The individual ratings are then averaged to calculate
overall difficulty level.
- 1: Easy
- 2: Moderate
- Difficult
| Subject | Difficulty Level |
| Chemistry | 1.63 |
| Mathematics | 1.83 |
| Physics | 1.73 |
| Overall Average | 1.73 |
Difficulty Level Analysis: No of Questions
Resonance experts feel that all subjects
were of similar difficulty level, while mathematics was on tougher side
compared with chemistry & physics. While around 148 Marks can be
considered easy overall, 160 marks are relatively difficult and 52 marks
are considered difficult by Resonance Team.
Overall, it is felt that while paper is
moderate, the cut-off would decrease because of increase in number of
seats from 1,50,000 to 2,00,000.
