Make notes
Preparing important and appropriate theory notes is going to help the candidates a lot in their WBJEE exam preparation. Preparing notes will help the candidates during the last-minute revision. Since it will not be easy to go through the complete chapter as they will have limited time left, notes will serve the purpose of revision by providing them with the crux of the matter or important pointers from the chapter.
Revision is a must
Several topics in the WBJEE syllabus require regular revision. Candidates will easily lose hold on such topics when not revised regularly. They can refer to notes whenever they want to revise certain topics instead of going through the complete chapter; which is also a time-consuming and lengthy process.
Attempt mock tests and previous years' papers
Mock tests will help candidates become familiar with the WBJEE 2024 exam pattern. Through the mock test, the candidates will be able to know the nature of the questions that the WBJEE question paper will consist of. Mock tests are also helpful in improving time management skills. The previous years' WBJEE question papers can also be solved to understand the subject weightage and commonly asked questions.
By following the WBJEE 2024 preparation tips and study plan, the candidates will have higher chances of securing the scores that they want for admission into their preferred courses and colleges. WBJEE 2024 is an important examination and the candidates need to be well prepared for it.
