Confidence in yourself!

Did you thought the first tip would be related to physics, chemistry and mathematics? Or it will be

related to time management?

No. The most important thing for preparation of JEE is to have confidence in yourself. Dont lose the

confidence even if you are not performing very well in your school or coaching classes.

Believe in yourself. Have faith in your abilities! You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every

experience. Every question you fail to solve teaches you many lessons and mistakes which you must not

do next time.

Have a strong will and belief in yourself that you have the ability to crack JEE and reach to your dream IIT

or NIT. Work hard for your dream. Is JEE your D.R.E.A.M.?

Start from Basics.

Do you think basics are for weak students? If you do, you are having a wrong mindset.

Always start preparation of JEE or preparation of any topic/chapter from basics. Because it is reallyimportant to have very strong base to build the building of knowledge of the respective topic.

If the base itself is weak, it will be very difficult to solve questions in later stage. But if the basic of the

topic is clear, it will be very easy for you to understand and crack the logic behind the question.

For example, revising basics of class 9th

and 10th

would be helpful for students in class 11. Concepts of

topics like algebra or mechanics will have broader implementations in class 11th

and 12th

.

If you hate inorganic chemistry that does not mean you will skip the basics. What you must do is focus

more on the basics of the subject you hate. The reason you hate can be either you simply dont like the

subject and feel bored, or YOU DONT UNDERSTAND IT WELL!

Now which ever be the reason, you cannot skip the chapter. Try to explore simpler ways to understand

the topic. Discuss with faculties in your school and coaching and once the basics are set in your brain thepathway would not be difficult.

Time Management

A lot of people must have already given you a lecture on this. Did they? This is with no doubt key thing

for preparing for JEE or anything else in life. One who knows how to manage and distribute timeefficiently solves half of the task.

Remember one thing; everyone has same 24 hours in a day! Now itsup to us how we use and manage

that. Preparing for JEE would need a lot of efficient time planning and management. Distribute your day

to physics, chemistry and mathematics as per factors like which subject needs more time, give bit extra

time to your weaker subject and also give some time specifically for your board exams! Yes board exam

performance will affect your over all rank in JEE.

- Distribute time for all the subjects.- Give some extra time to subject you are weak in. Remember More you sweat in peace, the less

you bleed in war. Preparing now will make you feel comfortable in exam hall.

- Itsokay to reduce the time you spend on TV, internet, hanging out with friends, playing PS2etc...Take out time from less important activities to the DREAM of cracking JEE.

- Prepare a daily time table on how you will be managing the day. Have a weekly check on whatall topics you have covered and if you completed your targets.

- Set your next week targets accordingly. Discuss your time table with your parents so that theyare aware of it too and can keep you motivated and push you to achieve it.

Time is free, but its priceless. You cant own it, but you can use it.

You cant keep it, but you can spend it. Once youve lost it you can never

get it back

Dont Stress yourself!

Now you would say its easy to be said that dont stress yourself but its hard to be away from stress?

Yes it is. But it is also important to understand that stressing yourself will not lead to any better state

and will hamper your preparation too.

You must study in a balanced way maintaining and giving some time daily to some recreational activity.

It may be watching TV for 30 minutes, or spending time with family or a walk in park, meeting with

friends, cooking, dancing or anything that makes you feel relaxed and energetic.

Always maintain a good friend circle who will guide you when you are in the sea of negative thoughts

and will take you out of the state by boosting your morale.

Adopting the right attitude can convert a negative stress into a

positiveone.

-Hans Selye

Follow a time table.It sounds pretty easy to say that I will make a time table and will study accordingly. But it is hard to get

into the habit. When at home prepare a time table and DONT IGNORE IT.You made the time table to

follow it not to keep it aside and ignore it.

Make time table giving time and importance to all the subjects. Also ensure that in the race of JEE

Preparation you dont miss out the NCERT or your Board Exam preparation. With the new JEE pattern, a

lot of questions can be expected directly from the Board Exams or inspired by the same. And secondly,

board scores are also part of the ranking procedure so if you end up scoring high in JEE but low in your

boards it will affect your ranking drastically.

Follow right books.

It is very important you follow the right books. Firstly to make it clear, to crack JEE you dont need to

study higher level concepts! Except few exceptions, its just the application and conceptual

understanding you need to build of syllabus of boards. Consult your teachers, IITians to know what

books to be followed and to ensure you get your hands on the right ones only. Dont waste time trying

out a new book every-time.

Physics:

For physics HC Verma has proved to be quite a standard book since long. It covers all the topics of IITJEE.

Along with that you can follow:

- IE Irodov for Mechanics, Electricity and magnetism and Modern Physics- Resnick and Halliday for Electricity and Magnetism & Heat and Waves- Study material of coaching you have joined/enroll for study material.- NCERT

If you feel any of the additional books is not working for you, dont waste your time on it.

Chemistry:

For chemistry, the books are quite standardized.

- Morrison & Boyd for organic chemistry-

JD Lee and OP Agarwal-IIT Chemistry for Inorganic Chemistry- JD Lee, OP Agarwal or/and RC Mukherjee/P.Bahadur for General Chemistry- Study material of coaching you have joined/enroll for study material.- NCERT

Mathematics:

For mathematics you can follow:

- Hall and Knight for Algebra- SL Loni for Trignometry and Coordinate Geometry- ML Khanna/ TMH (Tata McGraw Hill)- Study material of coaching you have joined/enroll for study material.- NCERT

Strategize. Pick up the right questions.

We have already talked about planning now what else we need to strategize about? Picking up and

practicing the right questions is also very important.

Go through each chapter with lot of concentration. If you are unable to solve questions, dont skip and

move to see the solutions. It will not do any good. Give 2-3 attempts before you move to view solutions.

Always try to understand the basics of each topic instead of solving all problems. It is often seen that

thorough understanding of a few topics proves better than a superficial idea about all topics.

Try to solve vast variety of questions. No type of question should go untouched. In books like for

example RD Sharma, series of similar type of questions is given in one exercise. Dont skip other exercise

because they contain different type and your objective should be to ensure you are able to solve all the

possible types. Follow this strategy for all the books and subjects.

Have proper guidance.

Guidance and constant motivation is very important. A good and experienced teacher at your school or

coaching institute will ensure you are on right path. The experience and knowledge of a teacher will be

of great help to you.

They are familiar with the pattern, dos and donts, what are common mistakes students do which willmake sure you dont end up doing silly and end up taking wrong decisions.

The faculty will also help you understand how to plan out your daily schedule, what books you must be

following, what should be your approach when you are specifically not able to grasp basics of some

topic or maybe not able to attempt specific type of questions.

Revision.

Whatever is taught to you must be revised. After you get back from school/coaching ensure you do

revision of the topics taught on same day. This will help you to understand the topic better, study the

part again which you were not able to understand in the class.

Also ensure that in your monthly planning calendar you have space for revision of topics which were

covered previously. Give a window for doing mock tests as well to analyze and review your

performance.

Revising the topics on regular basis will also ensure that you have a track of your month plan and a

regular check mechanism is in place. If you face difficulty in some topic you can specifically allot it some

more time.

Focus on BULLS EYE! Always.

The last tip is pretty much simple. You know the focus! Its cracking JEE. Now there would be many

moments you would lose hope, you would feel you just cannot do it or maybe there are people better

than you and you are not good enough.

Every person faces this! But the winner is one who overcomes these bad times and ensures he is giving

constant effort for the goal in hard time.

- Take the pledge that JEE is your dream and you will crack it.- No matter how many hurdles come, you will rise every time you fall.- Take a print out of the next page, write your name, put your signature in the column and write

the date you are signing it. Paste this PLEDGE on the wall in front of the table you study.

- READ THE PLEDGE5 times every morning when you wake up and 5 times before you go tobed.
