As of now National Testing Agency (NTA) has not released any notification regarding the change in JEE Main 2024 syllabus. Also candidates who are looking for the reduced JEE Main syllabus pdf should be patient as NTA has not announced any changes in the official JEE Main syllabus for Physics, Chemistry & Mathematics.

After the National Medical Commission revised the NEET UG 2024 syllabus by removing 18 chapters and introducing new topics, students are also anticipating that the NTA might similarly trim down the JEE Main syllabus.

As of now there is no official news regarding JEE Main 2024 syllabus reduction.
