In this article, Shiksha brings to you the suggestions and preparation strategy from Rajasthan topper Akhil Agarwal. He only focused on topics/syllabus from National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), his test paper notes from  the coaching institute and his class notes provided by teachers were the only preparation material he used to memorise things. Agarwal is now focusing on preparing for JEE Advanced which is the entrance exam for IITs.

According to Akhil, students must read notes, focus on their mistakes and also discuss the topics they are not able to understand properly. For that, he suggested group study is a best solution which will closely help in monitoring the shortcomings. He also said thoroughly reading NCERT books is enough to score well in JEE Main exam. He also added that JEE Main preparation demands more in-depth reading and analysis.
