Because the JEE Syllabus is based on NCERT Textbooks which are used in Grade 11th & 12th, it also helps them prepare for their school exams/board exams. Ideally, 2 years of JEE preparation (coaching, previous 40 years of questions practice, test series) is needed for students who want to clear JEE Main.
