    Q:   How many months are required to prepare for JEE Mains exam?
    A: 

    The time period required to complete the JEE Main preparation depends mainly on the students. Every student has their own pace of study. Ideally, 6-month time is good enough to complete the JEE Main preparation. Students who have started preparing from class 11 or 12 can easily prepare for JEE Main in 6 months considering the topics of JEE syllabus have already been studied in classes 11 and 12.

    JEE Main preparation is most effective with classes 11 and 12 as almost 90-95 percent of topics are similar in both exams. This way students can easily complete the entire JEE Main syllabus as well as the syllabus of classes 11 and 12. After the board exams, students get 1-2 months' time where they can focus entirely on JEE Main. Students who have started late for the JEE Main exam can make a 6-month plan where in the first three months they have to focus on revising the syllabus studied in classes 11 and 12. In the next two months focus on solving questions of JEE Main and analyzing the mistakes being made, if any. The last month should be focused on solving mock tests and JEE Main previous year question papers.

    Infrastructure: The college area is very small and the infrastructure is pretty old but is okay. The new campus is under construction and will be ready next year. Wi-Fi is extremely slow and there is no night canteen. Labs are well-equipped and there is only one ground with all facilities.
    Faculty: Some faculty are good while some are very bad though all of them are highly qualified. The curriculum is highly relevant and makes you industry-ready. Semester exams are moderately difficult and you will have to study well to ace it and class notes will be of utmost importance.
