The exam is typically held in the month of April, and the results are usually declared in June. Eligible candidates can apply online for the exam through the official website of the WBJEEB.

WBJEE DIFFERENT FROM JEE

WBJEE (West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination) and JEE (Joint Entrance Examination) are both entrance exams for engineering and technology courses in India, but there are some key differences between the two.

Jurisdiction: JEE is a national level exam, whereas WBJEE is a state-level exam, which means that JEE is conducted for admission to engineering and technology courses in institutes across India, whereas WBJEE is conducted for admission to institutes only in the state of West Bengal.
Eligibility: JEE is open to students from across the country, whereas WBJEE is open only to students from West Bengal.
Pattern: The pattern of JEE is different from WBJEE, JEE is divided into two parts JEE Main and JEE Advanced, JEE Main is for admission to undergraduate engineering programs at NITs, IIITs, and other centrally funded technical institutions, and JEE Advanced is for admission to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs). While WBJEE is a single level examination.
Scoring: JEE scores are used for admission to some of the top engineering colleges in India, including the IITs, NITs, and IIITs, whereas WBJEE scores are used for admission to institutes in West Bengal only.
Exam Dates: JEE Main is held twice a year in January and April, whereas WBJEE is held once a year, typically in April.
Validity: JEE scores are valid for one year, whereas WBJEE scores are valid for the current academic year only.

BOOKS FOR WBJEE

There are several books available to help students prepare for the WBJEE (West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination). Here are a few popular books that students can use to prepare for the exam:

“WBJEE Engineering Mathematics” by Arihant Publications: This book provides detailed solutions to all the mathematics questions that have been asked in the WBJEE in the past.
“WBJEE Physics and Chemistry” by Arihant Publications: This book covers the complete syllabus of physics and chemistry for WBJEE.
“WBJEE: A Complete Self Study Guide” by Disha Publication: This book provides comprehensive study material for the WBJEE, including practice questions, solved papers, and previous year papers with solutions.
“WBJEE Objective Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics” by R. D. Sharma: This book provides comprehensive study material for the WBJEE, including objective questions, solved papers, and previous year papers with solutions.
“WBJEE: Engineering Entrance Exam Guide” by G. K. Publication: This book provides comprehensive study material for the WBJEE, including practice questions, solved papers, and previous year papers with solutions.
“WBJEE Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics” by Pradeep Publication: This book provides comprehensive study material for the WBJEE, including objective questions, solved papers, and previous year papers with solutions.

It’s important to note that these books may not have the latest edition with the current syllabus, so it’s always better to check with the official website of the WBJEEB or consult with the experts.

Additionally, students should practice solving previous years question papers to get a feel of the exam pattern and the type of questions that are usually asked.
