JEE Syllabus is not what you think!

 

Stay updated with the latest JEE Syllabus rather than following any unknown sources. A JEE question paper has all kinds of difficulty level, mark the areas of utmost importance and focus on them. Of Course,  you are not supposed to leave the other portions.

JEE mains, will now be conducted by NTA (National Testing Academy) instead of CBSE. Yet, most of the Syllabus is common for JEE and your board exam. It's not like all the topics are in common, still, most of the preparation comes in handy.

Focus on your weakness

So, rather than wasting your time brushing the things you already know, you should spend your time and effort on improving in the areas you are weak. Most of the students not equal in all three subjects. It might be your weakness Strengthen your weak areas by seeking help from your teachers, seniors, friends or even online.

 

Mock Tests

Most of the students fail because they don’t work efficiently during the exam. Most of the time any student would take more time to solve a mathematics’ numerical when compared to a question from chemistry. Don’t forget, you have to finish 90 questions in 180 minutes. Practice previous years’ question paper and sample questions.

Never go for a guess!

 

¼ is the probability, if I’m correct I’ll get 4 marks, but if I’m wrong it ends up just being 1 mark less!

It sure sounds persuasive and thus many of the students have the propensity of going for a guesswork for questions they don’t know. Be it 1 mark, but too many negative marks and you end up losing a great deal. It is suggested that you leave the question that you don’t know the respective answer. This is among the most important tips to crack JEE mains that one can give!

But, it’s not the same case in JEE Advanced! Some of the sections in a JEE advanced question paper do not contain negative marks, by any means you are not supposed to leave these sections.

 

Regular Revision

 

Every human has the tendency to forget, so timely revising the topics is a must. Maths requires a different process of revision than the theoretical subjects. It is suggested you got through every kind of problem and practice only the difficult ones. In case of Physics, a deep knowledge along with a sufficient amount of practice is required whereas chemistry requires a regular revision from the start.

It would be a waste of time revising the things you were once good. So, include regular revisions in your study plan from the start.

 

Aim Big

 

We are always asked to aim big in life and it does apply here. In most cases, it is seen that aspirants preparing for JEE Advanced qualify JEE mains easily. Since we all know that the level of questions in JEE advanced is much higher than that of JEE mains. However, only focusing on Advanced can lower your marks in mains because of the difference in the syllabus.
