From the day when you finish your class 10th board exams, try to start getting knowledge about the exam. Research says that it only takes 21 days to start a new habit. So, try to sit constantly for at least six hours during the summer leisure time.
There are around 23 IITs, 31 NITs and GFTIs with around 30,000 seats altogether. Don’t think like you need to compete with other students at the national level but think like you need to secure only one seat in a top IIT or NIT.

Positivity is the only thing that can take you to the next step. Have faith and absorb whatever positivity you can find around yourself.
I agree that the competition level today is much tougher than it was about two years ago. However, the knowledge of the students is also expanding.
First of all, try to cover the subject way before the main exam. You cannot rely only on books and classes, you need to prepare by yourself. Do not skip any chapter.

Then follow at least three books from each subject to get proper knowledge. There are a lot of digital platforms wherein you can watch videos or do some exercises. Some of them are free and some of them are paid. Scroll into these online courses and try to solve as many tests as possible. By appearing for these online tests, you can learn how to manage time and solve the maximum number of questions in minimum time.
For physics, I will suggest getting general ideas by reading books or by watching online videos about the first chapter and then solving questions regarding the chapter from different digital platforms.
Emphasise more to solve questions on the digital platform only.

Yes, you can get admission to VNIT Nagpur with 95.55 percentile in JEE Main under the EWS category (Maharashtra home state) but your course options might be limited or into less competitive or core branches.

No, JEE Main ranks are not accepted for core engineering seat allotments at this campus. Admission to all BTech tracks is handled exclusively through the university's own entrance test ranks.

Sorry, but even under the SC category, securing a seat in an NIT with a JEE Main CRL rank of 632000 is not possible.

The rank needed for admission to the BTech course would depend on the course, round and branch you are applying for. For the General HS category, the Round 2 cutoff was 770798 for the BTech CSE course. So, this category students need a rank of at least 770798 to be considered eligible for admission.

Yes, several colleges convert a good JEE Main percentile directly into a fee waiver. Graphic Era's GECET-linked scholarships and UPES's merit scholarships can cut your fees by up to 50%. This makes originally expensive private colleges much more affordable for high scorers, so it's worth applying ev

No, JEE Main is not required to get admission in BTech at Rajalakshmi Engineering College. Admissions under the government quota rely primarily on Class 12 marks through TNEA counseling. However, JEE Main scores may be considered for admission.

Yes, most Coimbatore colleges, including PSG Tech, Karunya, and Kumaraguru, primarily admit students through TNEA counselling, which is based on Class 12 merit rather than JEE Main. JEE Main is mainly relevant if you're targeting government institutes like NITs. So a strong Class 12 score alone can

No, I don't think you can get into B.Tech EEE at Ajay Kumar Garg Engineering College, Ghaziabad with JEE Main rank of 5,30,000 as General, non-UP domicile candidate. Typically, closing rank for EEE close much earlier around 3,00,00.

Absolutely. Unlike government colleges with very tight cutoffs, most private engineering colleges in UP admit students across a wide score range, and several also accept students without a JEE Main score at all. Your branch choice and college reputation still matter, but private colleges generally o

No, JEE Main is not mandatory for BTech admission to SVSU Meerut. While JEE Main scores are accepted for BTech application, students can qualify directly through the university's SNET examination or Class 12 merit.
