The results of any free IIT JAM mock test you attempted will usually be accessible on the same website or platform where you took the test. You can check your results by doing the following:

  • Check the platform or website:

Return to the website where the mock exam was held if it was one of such sites (such as the platform of a coaching centre or an educational website). Use the login information you used to register to access your account, if you have one. Look for a section that says "My Results," "Test History," or "Dashboard," since these might include your mock test results and feedback.

  • Instant Results:

Results from a lot of free practice exams are available right away. If so, see if your score appeared on the platform immediately after you finished the test.

  • Notification via Email:

After you finish the test, some platforms send you an email with your findings. Look for any correspondence on the outcomes of your practice exam in your inbox (and spam folder).

  • Speak with Support:

You can get in touch with the helpdesk or support staff of the website or platform where you took the test if you are unable to locate your results. They ought to be able to help you find your score.

Please let me know if you need help with anything else regarding to the IIT JAM mock test!

Hi, if your degree results are expected in May or June, you can still apply for the NIMSET 2025 (Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences, Engineering, and Technology) admission exam. Here's what you must understand while applying:

  • Make sure you meet all of the qualifying criteria for NIMSET 2025, which often include having completed or being in the final year of your degree. Even if your results are waiting, you can apply with the assumption that you will meet the qualifying requirements whenever they are available.
  • The NIMCET 2025 application form is expected to be released online at nimcet.admissions.nic.in in March 2025, with the last date for submission likely to be in the third week of April 2025.
  • If your degree results are due after the application deadline, see if the application form permits you to provide provisional details (like marks obtained so far). Many examinations allow applicants in this position to apply after their results are released.
  • While you wait for your results, ensure that you have other required documents ready, such as your ID proof, previous academic records, and other relevant certificates. When the results are announced, you can quickly update or submit the necessary information.
  • Once your degree result is announced, finalize your application by updating it with the final marks or certificates. Just ensure that you meet the eligibility requirements before the deadline.

I hope this is helpful!
