Students’ Speak: Prioritise topics that you are good at to score well in JEE Main

By: Sachin Kumar Singh

Your approach should be like, you should try to cover each topic for the first time that will help you analyse that which are the topics/chapters in which you are required to give more time and determination and the others a bit less time. Also, that will help you know which subject/topic requires more revision and track.

I am sure that you all must have completed your preparations for one of the toughest entrances. So, here I will be sharing my experience and a few tips which might help you to ace the exam.

First, you should not take much pressure as it is just an exam and if you prepare well you will make it. So, coming on the subject you should not think like that one subject is important and the other one is not that important, all the subjects are equally important and you must try to give equal importance and time to each of them, but you can definitely prioritise the topics or chapters which you like and you can easily score that. Once you prepare the topics in which you are a little weak that will help in the later stage.

I will suggest you to start making the notes neatly and chapter-wise the day you start your preparation that will help you a lot at the time of the revision, you will be revising it three to four times so having notes will prevent wastage of time and searching for books every time you have a doubt.

Another important thing is time management, if you manage your time wisely you can give time to other subjects apart from Physics, Chemistry & Maths which will help you in keeping a track on other subjects and have a look into it.

Your approach should be like, you should try to cover each topic for the first time that will help you analyse that which are the topics/chapters in which you are required to give more time and determination and the others a bit less time. Also, that will help you know which subject/topic requires more revision and track.

As per my experience and discussion the topics which you should not escape at all for:

Maths

• Sets, Relation & Functions
• Permutations & Combinations
• Sequence & Series
• Statistics & Probability
• Trigonometry
• Integral Calculus

Physics

• Laws of Motion
• Work, Energy, and Power
• Thermodynamics
• Kinematics
• Oscillation & Waves
• Electromagnetic Induction
• Optics
• Electronic Devices
• Magnetic Effects of Current

Chemistry

• States of Matter
• Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure
• Chemical Kinetics
• Surface Chemistry
• Block Elements
• Coordination Compounds
• Polymers
• Chemistry in everyday life

You should do as many problems as possible for the above-mentioned topics.

Particularly for Chemistry you should read each topic of NCERT books and for Mathematics solved examples and regarding Physics doing examples and NCERT back question. Avoid many discussions with your friends regarding your preparation as that will just create confusion and tension.

For final preparation, you should only touch those topics which you have thoroughly done and don’t get confused referring many textbooks and preferences just follow and go through your notes.

Preparing the above topics will help you for your board exams also, so don’t worry about that and go through your flow just have a track on your optional subject and English you can cover in a week if you pay a little attention.
