    Answer keys to this year's IIT JEE that was releases by IIT Kanpur revealed that:

    8 questions worth 30 marks had wrong, ambiguous and incomplete descriptions.
    6 worth 22 marks were in maths and two of eight marks in physics.

    IIT-Kanpur, which conducted the JEE this year, also said 3 maths questions have been declared open. This means every student who took the paper will get 12 marks free.

    This is included in the overall 30 marks and will raise the cutoff for maths.

    How many CEans got lucky this year? ;)
