JEE Main 2026: The Joint Entrance Test (JEE) Main is conducted nationwide for admission to engineering seats across the country. From this pool, the top 2.5 lakh students qualify to appear for JEE Advanced, which is the gateway for admission into the prestigious IITs. All in all, students aspiring to pursue engineering in India must navigate through fierce competition. Consequently, every year, lakhs of students appear for the JEE Main examination after completing their 12th grade; however, times have now changed. It is now possible to pursue engineering in India immediately after completing the 10th grade. A 6-year engineering course has been introduced in the country, allowing for direct admission right after the 10th grade.

Let us explore how and where one can pursue engineering after the 10th grade. How is a B.Tech degree possible after the 10th? Let us attempt to understand all these aspects in detail.
