Several aspirants took to social media platforms, particularly X (formerly Twiter), to voice their concerns. Common issues included website congestion, server malfunctions, and technical glitches during the final hours of registration.
Many candidates and their families have appealed to the NTA for an extension of the registration deadline to accommodate those affected by these technical problems.

“I couldn’t fill out my JEE Mains 2024 application form on time, and the deadline has now passed. Is there any way I can still apply? Please help,” wrote another candidates.
The issue has also been highlighted by several leaders and politicians, who have demanded a minimum of two-day extension on behalf of the students.
Member of Parliament S Venkatesan wrote a formal letter to Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan urging an extension.
“Since timeframe for application is over today at 9 pm many aspirants are not able to file their applications. I would request you to extend deadline by 2 days to help the aspirants affected due to server issues,” the letter read.
