Concentrate on Topics That You Have Studied:

As you set out on the course to attain Excellence in JEE Advanced, it is likely to encounter topics that you haven’t been studied yet. Do not take up anything new. It’s time to concentrate on topics that you have already covered and try to make your concepts and concept-connections stronger.

Do Not Let Doubts overshadow your Preparation:

It is that crucial phase of preparation when you cannot allow even a single doubt to breed. However, if you come across any, just stay calm and try to navigate the waters around it. Approach your parents, teachers and mentors if needed. If you get bogged down by any doubt, make sure you get it cleared on time.

Quality time for Revision:

Make enough time to revise what you have studied till now. Having enough time in hand will enable you to revise the concepts thoroughly. Shallow revision will not help you much. Once again, Commit to Memory, this is the time to revise what you have studied.

Learn from the mistakes in the tests: 

There are many tests available, both offline and online. It is important to develop a habit of taking tests of the same format. What is more important is to learn from the mistakes made in those tests. If you can amend those mistakes after every test, your performance will show a gradual improvement all the way. This is the only way to close the gap between preparation and performance and improve the examination temperament.

Don’t go beyond the syllabus and don’t leave a single topic in the syllabus:

All the questions asked in the JEE are from the prescribed syllabus. Some intelligent questions will check your ability to apply the concept but they are definitely not out of the syllabus. When you study from a foreign reference book, you may tend to learn topics that are not there in the syllabus. Cracking JEE is like crossing a river by a boat with maximum amount of load. If you take more than the prescribed limit, the boat will sink.

Keep a balance in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics: 

You may not like one of the three subjects but examiner hardly cares what you like. All the three subjects have equal weight age in JEE. Therefore, study all of them with equal attention.

Never neglect the N.C.E.R.T. books:

The N.C.E.R.T. books are written by some of the best brains of India and these books are quite precise and concise. Your preparation must start with N.C.E.R.T. books. Read these books thoroughly and solve all the back exercises. Also try the ‘exampler problems’ for further practice of objective questions. Remember that reading and understanding the N.C.E.R.T. books are not the same thing.

Do’s and Don’ts to be considered before the exam:

• Do not create unnecessary stress for yourself by studying before the exam as that will have a direct impact on your result and might affect your results as well.
• Take at least 6-7 Hours of sleep so that you wake up fresh in the morning.
• Have a light dinner a day before the examination.
