Allocate adequate time to each subject such that due attention is paid to each topic. Allocating extra hours every week for subjects that are difficult and incorporating doubt clearing session in your prep routine would be of great help.
Discipline is the key to follow your time table. You should allocate one hour a week for self-analysis and correction. A well-conceived study plan clubbed with regular mock tests would help you streamline your preparation to progressive perfection.
Utilize The Gap Between Board Exams
With Board exams and JEE Main April exam being closely scheduled, it becomes critical to meticulously plan the preparations for both these exams. However, the challenge revolves around how to focus and go about it to emerge victorious in both the exams. During this phase you must not only focus on scoring good marks, but also perfect the art of simultaneous preparation for two major exams of your life – Boards & JEE Main.
There are certain sub-topics in various subjects which generally get more weightage in the Boards because the questions are subjective type. There are also some topics which are part of JEE Main but are not the part of JEE Advanced which some students tend to ignore during their preparation. For example, in Physics, the chapter on Electronic Devices and Communications Systems is a part of JEE Main and the Board exam but not a part of JEE Advanced. Students should carefully study these chapters along with solving questions from sample papers to comfortably handle descriptive questions from these chapters.
Practice Lot Of Questions But With Clear Concepts
Problem solving combined with concept clarity accelerates success as the exam may not have a fixed pattern. It is good to solve questions but you should also focus on strengthening your basics. Cracking JEE requires great amount of hard-work and a good emphasis on critical thinking. It is, thus, imperative to understand the application of the concept as well.
