What should be my preparation strategy to crack JEE Mains in one year?

Question

Harsh Ranjan · Answer

One year preparation is for class 12th student or droppers so if they are sincerer to their study then definitely they will crack the JEE Mains exam. When you have one year time for preparation, try to focus on your weakest topics and learn them by heart. It will bring a huge improvement and your confidence level will also rise. Make a plan in which divide your subjects and topics and set a target to finish them. If you fail then take necessary steps to overcome the loss and start working harder. Set some weekly goals and try to achieve them. During the preparation, take as much time as you need to understand the problem in respect of seeing through the solution but while taking a mock test try to create an environment of the original exam and try to complete your paper in a limited time. It will slowly help you to solve the problems in a fast and accurate way. At last, the question papers of previous years are important resources. It will help you to understand the type of questions and also you will become aware of your weak topics, where you need to concentrate more. Believe in yourself and start the preparation to reach your goal.

It differs from person to person depending on one's current academic performance. But yeah it sure is possible to crack IIT JEE Mains and Advance in 1 year if you follow the proper routine. Some of the tips are mentioned below: - From the point of view of a proper routine, the minimum time you should be dedicating is at least 5-6 hours on self-study regularly. You should split the self-study time into two core parts: one for revision purpose and second for day-to-day self-study. Revision is very essential because syllabus of class 11th and 12th PCM is vast. - Join a coaching institute and resolve their study materials repeatedly. Nowadays there are numerous tablet courses existing such as Aakash and Plancess. The advantage of joining tablet courses is that you have plenty amount of time for self-study which I contemplate is most vital piece when preparing for IIT JEE. You can go for classroom courses also but yeah then your timetable will be a bit tiresome. But it depends on you if you can accomplish 6 hours of self-study after attending classes or not. Also, they have introduced Adaptive Learning in their test series which I think no other institutes has done yet. -Watch sample lectures yourself in YouTube and go for the one that suits your need well. - You have to put equal importance to all the three subjects. If you neglect any of the subjects then you will never be able to get rank below 1000. In fact, it will even decrease your probability of clear IIT Advance significantly. - Always take part in All India Test Series. In this matter, Aakash is best as many students participate in Aakash All India Test Series. FIT JEE also good when it comes All India Test Series. All India Test Series will give a proper assessment of where you lie among the crowd as you will be competing with 12 lac students in IIT JEE Mains. So, you should have an idea about what it is like to compete with students from different parts of the country.

One year of preparation is enough to clear JEE Mains but you need to follow a good strategy and have to do smart work rather than doing traditional hard work. You need to make plans and have to implement them in your daily life. I will suggest you to make your own strategy because only you have to handle it. I can only give you suggestions. The strategy you should follow to crack JEE Mains in one year: *In first 8 months 1.Try to cover each and every topic. Don't run behind the syllabus. Just try to practice more and more questions (Quality questions). 2.Avoid all the disturbing elements or things which distract you. Say good bye to social sites like Facebook, Whatsapp, etc. 3.Don't underestimate NCERT, especially for chemistry. Learn each and every point of it (only in chemistry). 4.Study physics for atleast 3 hours in a day and solve maths for 5-6 hours. *In last 4 months 1 Solve previous years papers daily. You can also solve mock papers. 2.Start mugging all the formulas and reactions. 3.You can join test series of any reputed coaching institute. 4.Never lose hope even if your preparation is not complete. 5.Try to solve papers between 9 am to 12 noon (as JEE exam is generally held between 9-12 o'clock) Go and start your preparation. Early start will fetch you some extra time. All the best!

One year is good enough to crack JEE Mains. You have to make a time table for yourself. Join a crash course in FIITJEE. I recommend FIITJEE, Hauz Khas, South Delhi. The really got good teachers. Keep solving the questions and mock tests. For physics, solve H.C Verma. The strategy for solving this book is to solve the questions in reverse order. It will really help you with your concepts. For mathematics and chemistry, solve all the questions from study material provided to you by FIITJEE. They also provide you question banks as well. So just be sincere and work hard.

One year is a sufficient time period to study and clear JEE Mains with a good score. See, very important thing is how you can perceive your studies. If you can surely read books and make good notes then it's fine, otherwise, get correspondence courses from some good coaching institutes or if you are a dropout or you have less school load, join a coaching. Anyways, it's totally up to you how you are able to catch up with your subject. Your choice. Now, coming to the preparation strategy. Actually, the course is a bit large, so learning new things is as important as revising old concepts. So, search and go for recommended books for each topic. Start with building (yourself) a good timetable that has time for these four things: 1: Learning new concepts (week days) 2: Time for practice (week days) 3: Revising old concepts (weekends) 4: Mock tests (once a fortnight or even on weekends if you can spare a three-hour shift) Learning new things: You shall have to study a topic to fundamentals. Make sure that you have your concepts crystal clear. This shall make learning very easy because many topics are interrelated. Also, refer good books and you can find online lectures that definitely shall build and clear your concepts. Practice: Practice is the important factor. Concepts need to have been applied. It is a complete waste to just get on with concepts and skip practicing questions. Most questions in JEE Mains are numerals and unless you have a good practice of numerical, you shall be stuck in the examination and would end up taking more time on a question than it is expected. Revision: As syllabus is pretty large, make sure that you carry on with the new concepts as well as brush up old concepts. Make quality notes that you are able to apprehend easily because for last 15 days before the exams, it is recommended to stop where ever you are and just focus on old concepts and try to remember old stuff (especially in chemistry where there are a lot of topics that you have no option but just to learn stuff). Mock Tests: These are the most vital and the most important things. Keep checking how much you have learned. Are you able to attempt full paper in three hours? This is kind of introspection. See what topics are you deficient in. Also, check yourself for your accuracy or negative markings. Mock tests are the only reflection of your preparations. After you are done with your preparations, give last 15 days for revision and you definitely shall score well.

Cracking JEE in 1-year if a reasonable target and therefore can be achieved. I recommend the following 1. Building a study timetable with adequate time for self-study and practice. 2. In case you want to join a coaching you can join a 1-year weekend course. 3. You must join a test series which will help you track whether you are following the right path of preparation and where should you change your strategy 4. Revise what you study, this is to be done regularly followed with tests of the part you covered and analysis of the test. You must finish your syllabus and test series before your boards. Focus on your boards and after boards give the test every day along with thorough analysis. Last 15 days should be spent revising.
