JEE Mains will be held in less than a month’s time now. Scheduled for January 6-9, aspirants planning to appear for the exam must be looking for best practices to prepare for the exam. Here, I am sharing some easy tips that will help you prepare well for the exam:
- During JEE preparation, it is advised to revise prepared short notes at least thrice. See the important questions and set a strategy. One can also focus on well-scoring topics and revise them well. Further, after proper planning, one can excel in the exam. Keep yourself motivated throughout the period with high energy and enthusiasm. Also, health issues should be properly managed.
- Time management has always been a major issue. Students are advised to manage their time properly. They can cut down the time requirement of various other non-necessary things and put efforts to indulge in revision activities. It is advisable to be more productive. You can also take the help of a watch during preparation. Try to solve more questions and it would be better if you set a fixed interval for them. Also, it is advised to make a sequence of the questions that you might have to solve in the exam.
- JEE preparation is tough along with class 12th Therefore, it is advisable to make efforts and select the topics which will provide good and efficient numbers in JEE as well as in class 12th exams. You can score better in your exam if you have a good clarity of the concepts and have a clear approach. The main thing in the preparation is to select the areas and topics that are highly demanding in the exam.
- Various topics such as coordination chemistry, chemical bonding, and physical chemistry are important in chemistry and cover a larger portion. In mathematics, it is advisable to be productive in coordinate geometry. In physics, revise the concepts of various topics based on electricity and mechanics. One can also score better in his/her areas of interest. Therefore, the focus should be given on those areas too.
- Revision should include the topics first that brings out maximum marks. It is also advisable to put efforts into making short notes. The study hours should include eight hours in a day. Students can take short breaks during this period. One can also include a water bottle to take a sip of it at times (nearly between an interval of 15 minutes). During the eleventh hour, you can increase the study period up to 12 hours.
