Exam Pattern of JEE Main 2021 Paper 2 for Bplan/BArch
The JEE Paper 2 was of three-hour duration and had three sections.
For the total 77 questions that were asked, answering correctly can help you gain +4 marks while an incorrect answer results in a loss of one mark.
The JEE Main Paper 2 carried 400 marks, and the drawing questions carried 50 marks each. (2×50=100).
Let us discuss how each one of them was perceived by students.
The memory-based session for aptitude
Traditional question-solving techniques may take about 3 minutes per question. For various students around the country, this resulted in a significant loss of time.
However, several IGNITE students called and informed us shortly after the exam that the shortcut techniques taught to them were immensely helpful in arriving at the right answer within a matter of seconds.
Aptitude questions were asked for the following :
- Image of Nalanda university
- Match the following for images and their places
- Find plans and elevation
- Find out the odd figure
- Cool colour scheme
- Counting of square
- Mirror image and embedded image
- God of small things: Arundhati Roy
- Volume zero book: Charles coria
- Architect of Akshardham temple
- Agenda 21 related to sustainable development
Mathematics
As per the information gathered from our students, regular mock tests and training helped in reinforcing their core fundamental concepts, and they were able to solve most of the Math questions with ease.
Students were also able to finish all the questions within the available time frame. Although the Math questions were slightly tough, IGNITE students were able to crack it quite easily as many questions were similar to those they have attended during our mock tests.
In the 2021 question Paper, several questions were asked that are tricky.
- Many questions form straight lines.
- One question from derivatives
- Questions from mathematical reasoning
- Questions from the conic section, vectors, and 3D images
At IGNITE we teach our students that the JEE Paper 2 exam is not about knowledge, but a battle between time and knowledge. Many of our students have been thankful for the mock tests we have conducted which have significantly improved their answering speed, enabling them to complete the entire test within the stipulated time.
Drawing
The drawing questions were relatively easy for all our students due to the intensive coaching we have given them.
All our faculty members in Architectural drawing are products of elite architectural institutions across the country. They have in-depth knowledge of preparing students to answer drawing-related questions for the JEE Paper 2 exam.
The 2020 drawing questions consist of:
Portrait from a given figure with rendering back and white with the same scale
To draw the scenery of a kite festival and color it
Or
3D composition:
Cuboid A:2cmx2cmx2cm Cuboid B:5 cmx2 cm x2 cm
As we have thoroughly trained all our IGNITE students into the concepts of drawing
- Human figure
- 3D images
- Light and shadows
- Perspective drawing etc
Answering the drawing questions was a piece of cake for them.
