JEE-Main 2024 Deleted Syllabus Weight Analysis

for JEE-Main & Advanced 2024

Dear Students,

In the below table, for every topic of each of PCM is listed which is removed from the JEE Mains 2024
syllabus. These removed topics have some or more relavence for the exam and some of these may
be removed due to rationalization process under New Education Policy based on which topics are
also being removed from NCERT Text books.

There is a fair chance that in JEE Advanced also syllabus will remain same as that of recently
released JEE Main syllabus. For every topic based on the new topics added in the recently reelased
syllabus, rationalization process and its weight level for JEE Main and Advanced, all the deleted
optics in the below listed table are marked with three possible remarks – NR, D and E as explained
below.

NR – Not Required – Even if you leave this topic, no problem but if you do it will enhance your
thinkng ability for other topics and chapters of subject
D – Desirable – You should not leave this topic as this may be removed due to rationalization policy
but questions based on these topics may be there in exam
E – Essential – You must not leave these topics if you are serious about scoring high

Students should follow the guidelines as per these remarks while revising these topics along with
Block Strategy Revision which is the best proven method even to score full in JEE Main.

Wish you all the Best !

Yours,
Team Physics Galaxy
