Lakhs of students appear for JEE Mains every year. Not all of them clear the JEE exam. What should they do? Where can they take admission in engineering? What should be the backup plan for JEE aspirants? In this post, we will look at some really good options to try out if you are not able to crack JEE Main.
Back Plan for JEE – What if You Don’t Clear JEE Mains?
Some of the options to consider as a backup plan for JEE :
1. Attempt other engineering entrance exams
JEE is not the only engineering entrance exam in India. If you are not able to crack JEE Mains, you can attempt BITSAT (BITS-Pilani is considered as one of the best engineering colleges in India).

2. Give IISER Aptitude Test for admission in IISc and IISERs
If you are a science enthusiast, you can appear for IISER aptitude test to get admission in IISERs and IISc Bangalore (top rated university in India as per NIRF rankings).
3. Look for opportunities in other Science based courses
