Warren
Buffet once asked Bill Gates if you have to recruit students from one University in
the world which one would be that,
Bill Gates replied
immediately it would be IIT. Narayana Murthy said he want- ed
his son to do B Tech from IIT but he had to send him to Cornell
because he could not clear JEE. So high
is the reputation and prestige
of becoming an IITian. So I would like to congratulate all students
who have cleared JEE Mains.
Before we get into the main article
let me break the myth that JEE advanced is very difficult contrary to that we believe that Questions in JEE Advance
are not difficult but they are just different and what they require
is a different approach and a different mindset.
What is important to solve these questions is how do you approach and
attack them.
Given below are tips you should keep in mind so as to prepare for JEE Advance 2020.
Study
schedule for JEE Advance 2020:
· The first 15 days focus on revision
and quality practice. It is advised
that you should
study at least 12 hours every day.
·
In the next 5 days give 5 mock tests followed
by analysis and revision. Study around 9-10 hours
every day.
·
The last 2 days are cool down
days where you focus on relaxing your body little bit and last minute revision.
Study 6-8 hours every day. Sleep at least 7-8 hours in the last 2 days.
Revision:
·
During revision focus strengthening weak areas and also on deep thinking
and conceptual clar- ity
·
Study the trend of JEE Advanced
of previous years.
·
Carefully study the syllabus of
JEE Advanced 2020
·
Do not try to study new
chapter. It is difficult to go deep in any new area in 15 days time.
Quality
is more important than Quantity
·
Doing 1000 Quality questions
in one subject is more important than solving 10000 questions
which have not been carefully selected.
·
Do not get trapped in hi fi
questions or irrelevant questions.
·
Many times i have seen coaching’s giving questions which
are beyond the scope of JEE
Advance
·
Remember success in JEE it is not about
running fact but it is about running
in the right direction.
Sharpening
your Problem solving skills for JEE Advance:
·
While you are mastering
fundamentals you might face questions which take you hours still you may not be
able to find the solution. It is OK and don’t think that your time is getting
waste. All this time will help in sharpening your problem solving
skills. In JEE
Advance you have questions which involve multiple
concepts and these problems what is important how you approach/attack a
problem and this skill develops with time. So always remember the key to master
the fundamentals is continuous interplay between theory and problem solving.
·
Try
to correlate the learning’s of your subjects with the
day to day life practical examples or in other words
correlate your classroom learning with real
life learning. This
will help you in under- standing the fundamentals better. Whenever
you study/learn a concept, try to go deep into the
concept and try to understand the correlation of the concept with other
concepts of the same subject for example the relation between a heat and light concept.
·
Theory should lead to questions
that would lead to answers which would in turn lead to questions.
All
subjects are equally important
·
Analysis shows that in JEE and
other Engineering Entrance Examinations generally many Students could not be
successful only because of their poor marks in Chemistry in spite of their very
good performance in Physics and Maths. Even successful students could get
lower rank in the merit list only because of poor marks in Chemistry. According to a survey, even intelligent students
devote approx. 80% of their
total time to Physics and Maths and only 20% to
Chemistry. The above analysis
is not given with the objective to divert the students from Phys-
ics or Maths but to tell them to have a balanced
study and utilize
the same time to secure
more marks and better rank.
·
Also remember that most of the
examinations minimum qualifying marks are there for eachsubject so irrespective
of what is your total score you have to get minimum marks in all the subjects
to qualify. So never overdo anyone a subject at the cost of other
·
Also just imagine a scenario
that the JEE Advance paper of your favourite subject in which you have spent
maximum time comes
very difficult and so everybody
scores less whereas
the subject in which you have not given sufficient time comes easy or
average. In such scenario students who have focused equally on all subjects
will have an advantage.
Previous
year papers:
·
Attempt at least last 10 years
papers of JEE Advance
·
It is advised that previous
year papers of JEE Advance till 2017 can be attempted chapter while revising
·
Previous year papers of JEE The advance of 2018 and 2019 should be given in the form of test e simulating exam like condition.
Mock
test
·
Attempt at least 5-6 Mock test of JEE Advance followed by
deep post test analysis. Post analysis should highlight weak areas for revision
and also help in finalizing the exam taking strategy.
·
Study at least 9 hours each day. In slots of 3 hours each. Schedule
your daily schedule according to the actual JEE Advance
2020 examination. In the first 2 slots, you can appear in the mock test whereas the third slot can be
used for post-test analysis/revision.
Test-taking strategy
·
Decide the sequence in which
you want to attempt the JEE Advance papers. Also decide th time
for each section.
·
JEE
Advance is a low scoring exam (50% marks can get you a good rank) so
the focus in not on speed but on strike rate and selection.
·
It is advised that you should
first attempt questions with one correct option
·
Remember the time has come to Give your 100% and achieve your Goals. Also keep in mind that suc-
cess in any competitive exam is sum of Knowledge (you have acquired
in last 10 months) + Strategy
(how do you attempt a paper,
combination of speed
and strike rate and other aspects) + strong mental attitude to give your best. Let me
explain this with the help of cricket: Even if you have a technically strong
team, you need strategy (batting or balling first, who opens batting/balling,
field placement, balling change) for every game and a mentally strong
players who can score 20+ runs in the last over. Even the greatest players
like Virat need strategy & strong mental
attitude for every game).
Wishing you an outstanding success in exams and Life.
