Before leaving for the exam on the final day, just take a look at the below checklist so that you don’t miss out anything. In fact, keep these things in one place as the mind is extremely pre-occupied on the final day so it is not possible to recall everything:
- JEE Main admit card: Some students tend to forget their admit cards in anxiety and realize it on reaching the examination center. This triggers the stress level and can have a negative impact on the performance. In order to avoid such a situation, keep all the things at one place.
- XII hall ticket: Besides the admit card, do not forget to carry your class XII hall ticket. It is essential to show it to the examiner during JEE Main.
- Stationary: Carry at least 2-3 pencils in good condition along with eraser and sharpener. Students are advised to carry all the required stationary including scales etc. so that they don’t have to borrow.
- Wrist Watch: You cannot imagine forgetting your watch as JEE is all about time management. Wrist watch helps you in keeping a check on the time left so that you can spend your time on questions accordingly.
- Water: Students are advised to carry their own water bottles though most of the examination centers provide this facility. At times, the stress level increases and in such a case, students are advised to drink some water and relax for 2-3 minutes. This helps in reducing the stress level.
- Some protein bars: During the preparation phase, students neglect their health and are not able to take proper sleep. As a result, they are likely to feel weak during the exam. Hence, you are advised to carry some protein bars as they help in maintaining your energy level and thus aid in sustaining concentration.
Work hard and try your level best. Relax and keep these points in mind on the final day. You will surely win this race!
