New Delhi:
National Testing Agency (NTA) has recently released the provisional answer key for JEE Main 2025 Session 2. Post the release of the key, question papers and recorded responses, many students, educators and other stakeholders have expressed their dissatisfaction on social media platform X over the discrepancy and glitch in the NTA responses.
Students have claimed that the response sheet shared by the NTA does not include the correct number of questions attempted by them. As per students, the JEE Main response sheet appears different from their actually attempted questions in the paper.
A user noted, “Tragedy of errors-JEE Main response sheet is different from what students actually filled in many cases + lost of answers given by NTA.”

Claiming that NTA was playing with the future of children, many parents highlighted the mismatch in the response sheet and the actual exam paper.
A parent noted, “Indeed my daughter attempted 71 questions. During submission it showed 71 questions attempted and now in the response sheet it is showing ALL questions as unanswered! Shocking ! NTA is playing with the future of children. No response on email.”
