Another student suggested, “These things would improve the students’ situation significantly. A correction window, #PostponeJEEMains2022 till board exam finishes, An honest fair gap between two(or more) session of jee and other entrance exams.”

@Swamy39 sir, help us with messed up #JEEMain2022 schedule and clash with board. Also understand that merely postponing state boards doesn’t help in anyway, as it just get postponed and eats up the day of improving.

Please, write a letter to edu. min. On our behalf.
