  • Computer and Business Fundamentals

Start your OJEE preparations with the topics which you find toughest. Study these topics thoroughly and make notes along with your preparations. Jot down formulae or tricks that you come across during preparation. To tackle the Comprehension and Verbal Reasoning section, start reading newspapers, magazines, etc. Reading data-heavy passages in less time increases the chances of mistakes so practice reading such passages from the beginning of exam preparation. Strengthen your grammar and vocabulary to ace these sections.

The Analytical Reasoning section assesses the students’ analytical skills. It is important to understand the pattern of the questions and know the formulae by heart. Also, find out ways to solve Analytical Reasoning questions through shortcuts for you would not like to spend too much time solving puzzles. Join online study groups to meet mentors and peers. They will be of great help in finding out tricks and shortcuts.

The General Awareness section is all about current affairs, the latest trends, history, economics, politics, etc. Make newspaper your pal for preparing for the OJEE exam 2026. Make a habit of reading the newspaper daily or watching the news. Prepare Static GK from Manorama Year Book.

Computer and Business Fundamentals, as the name suggests, is about computer basics and business scenarios. To ace this section, refer to the computer books of Class 9 and Class 10. Pay attention to terminologies and formulae. Read business magazines and refer to economics textbooks that you must have studied in school.
