New Delhi: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Tuesday released the Joint Entrance Examination (Main) 2017 scanned images of OMR answer sheets of the candidates with their recorded responses and answer keys.

Candidates who appeared in JEE (Main) 2017 examination held on April 02, 2017 can log on to jeemain.nic.in to view/challenge the answer key and recorded responses of Paper 1 candidates.

The link for this will be available from April 18-22, 2017.

Candidates are also allowed to challenge the recorded responses if these differ from the ones they had marked on the OMR sheet.

The challenge of recorded responses of OMR answer sheets and answer keys will be accepted online only, through the link available on the website of JEE (Main). The prescribed fee of Rs 1,000 per recorded response/per question challenged will be required to be submitted through Credit/Debit Card, Paytm and SBI Buddy.

If the challenge is accepted by the Board, which means that if the recorded response is not the same as marked by the candidate on OMR sheet, the correction will be done and the fee will be refunded.

In case, any registered candidate does not submit the challenge by the prescribed date and time, it will be presumed that his/her recorded response is the same as marked on OMR sheet. If the challenge of answer key is accepted by the Board, which means if any mistake is noticed by the subject experts in the answer key, a policy decision will be notified on the website and the fee shall be refunded.

The question paper and marked responses in respect of candidates, who have appeared for computer-based examination of JEE (Main) – 2017 have already been sent on their registered e-mail Ids, so no challenge of recorded response will be accepted from such candidates. “However, these candidates may also challenge answer keys...but before submitting challenge, they have to verify the sequence of questions and answer options of their question paper (sent to them by e-mail) with the question paper available on the website.”
