Which was the toughest shift in JEE 2025?

The honest answer:

• Shift toughness varies for every student based on their strength & preparation.
• NTA officially doesn’t declare which shift was toughest.

Based on student reactions (tentative trends for 2025):

• Some April 2nd and April 6th shifts were reported to have lengthy Physics, tricky Maths, and conceptual Chemistry.
• Certain evening shifts had more challenging Maths questions.

But here’s the reality:

• NTA applies normalization to balance these variations.
• Tougher shifts are compensated fairly via percentile calculations.

Your focus should be:

• Prepare for every paper as if it’ll be the toughest.
• Strong conceptual clarity beats any shift variation.

Don’t fear the shift — prepare to dominate any shift.
