Students found the overall difficulty level of the JEE Advanced Paper 1 moderate to difficult

Some students found that the Physics section was Easy, Chemistry was Moderate, but Maths was relatively difficult.

Chemistry Section

The Chemistry section was seen to be moderate in nature. Chemistry was not balanced as per students. Inorganic Chemistry had a few questions which were directly from NCERT. In Physical Chemistry, questions covered chapters on Chemical Kinetics, Ionic & Chemical Equilibrium, Electrochemistry, and Atomic Structure. Thermodynamics (with more than one question). In Organic Chemistry, questions mostly asked about Amines, Polymers, Biomolecules, Oxygen-containing Compounds, and some named reactions were also asked. Mixed concepts questions were asked. More weightage was given to Organic Chemistry.

Physics Section

More weightage was given to chapters like Kinematics, Thermodynamics, Modern Physics, Capacitors, Current Electricity, Kinematics, Gravitation, Optics, and Electrostatics. Overall, Physics was Easy as compared to the other two subjects as per students. This was a Balanced Section as per students.

Mathematics Section

Mathematics was tricky & difficult for students. There were tricky and lengthy questions from Vectors and 3D Geometry. There were questions from Functions, Matrices, Ellipse, Statistics & Probability. Some good questions were asked in chapters on Probability, Complex Numbers, 3-D Geometry, Parabolas. Students found the Maths section to be the toughest.
