The JEE Advanced Syllabus 2025 has been released by the exam conducting authority, which is IIT Kanpur, on the official website of the JEE Advanced exam. The JEE Advanced syllabus is the same as previous year and has not observed significant changes since 2023. The JEE Advanced syllabus comprises of topics from Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics, and the level of the questions is based on 11th and 10+2 level. Candidates can view and download the free JEE Advanced Syllabus PDF on this page to start their preparation.
JEE Advanced exam is the sole criteria to gain admission in the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology (IITs), and the candidates can opt for undergraduate, integrated masters, and dual bachelor-masters degree courses in engineering, science, and architecture. It is worth noting that the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Advanced comprises of two papers - paper 1 and paper 2. Each paper lasts for 3 hours and it is mandatory to give both the papers to clear the advanced examination.
In this article we will be covering the entire JEE Advanced syllabus, downloadable PDF of the syllabus, the important topics and their weightage, and will also discuss a few relevant preparation tips together with the recommended books for JEE Advanced. Candidates are therefore advised to utilise this page to their full potential and prepare for the JEE Advanced exam which is scheduled to be held on May 18, 2025, after the JEE Main exam concludes.

JEE Advanced Syllabus 2025 for Chemistry
Chemistry is often considered easier than Mathematics and Physics, however, the subject requires regular practice to master it. Any topic/chapter either from Class 11 or Class 12 requires consistent practice. According to the JEE Advanced syllabus of Chemistry, the weightage of Class 11 chapters is around 30% to 40% and the rest is of Class 12 chapters. However, most of the topics covered in Class 11 are the basic ones and are important to understand Class 12 topics.

Mathematics is a very important subject from JEE Advanced point of view. Engineering aspirants should focus on its various topics from lower classes. It will help students in understanding the complex concepts in higher classes. The chapters of Class 11 are the foundation of Class 12 chapters as well. However, the weightage of topics of Class 11 mathematics is 40% to 50% and that's why these topics cannot be ignored.

Subject Wise Focus on Papers
Candidates should be ready to tackle the JEE paper section by section, which requires practice. These questions are crucial for assessing a student's conceptual and application skills, making them a vital part of the JEE Advanced exam.
Make Health the utmost priority
Good health is essential for success, and the same applies to JEE preparation. Candidates should prioritize their physical and mental well-being. Parents and guardians play a crucial role in ensuring their wards' health and lifestyle. Aspirants should aim for eight hours of uninterrupted sleep for a refreshed mind. Additionally, incorporating light exercises like yoga or walking can positively impact their lifestyle.
