The JEE and NEET this year amid the coronavirus crisis has been a big concern and many students who had to appear for both the JEE and NEET, but whose preference is for medical career, have skipped JEE. In Guwahati, the attendance for JEE has been above 70 per cent, but many students who had downloaded their admit cards for JEE skipped the exam since they wanted to minimise exposure to coronavirus ahead of NEET. In normal times, these students would have appeared for JEE as well as NEET.
