Questions on this idea a shift, by year
2017–2026. Asked in 2020 and 2022. Years differ in how many shifts Lumi analysed, so each year is scaled to one shift of 25 Chemistry questions.
Raw count: 2017: 0 in 1 shift · 2020: 1 in 12 shifts · 2021: 0 in 24 shifts · 2022: 1 in 24 shifts · 2023: 0 in 12 shifts · 2024: 0 in 18 shifts · 2025: 0 in 8 shifts · 2026: 0 in 9 shifts.

How JEE Main framed it
Assertion–reason is the usual form. Skill tested: conceptual.
- Assertion-reason on permanganate titration
- Count incorrect statements on d- and f-block elements
