Month-wise OJEE preparation 2025

With three months in hand, it is important to divide these months into phases so that you can have a systematic approach to your OJEE preparation.

OJEE 2025 Preparation: Phase I

The first phase in OJEE preparation is knowing the OJEE syllabus thoroughly. OJEE syllabus consists of the following subjects:

  • Verbal Reasoning
  • Analytical Reasoning
  • General Knowledge
  • Comprehension
  • 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 2025. 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.

OJEE 2025 Preparation: Phase II

The second phase of OJEE preparation 2025 should be dedicated to practising mock tests and sample papers. Once you have covered the entire OJEE syllabus move on to practicing the mock tests which will help you to assess your preparations and your grasp on every topic.

Solving OJEE mock tests and previous years’ question papers will increase your speed and accuracy. This will also acquaint you with the OJEE exam pattern and the type of questions that will be asked in the exam. Even though the OJEE exam does not have a sectional time limit, speed does play a big role in fetching good marks. The duration of the exam is two hours and the candidates need to solve 120 questions. Since there would not be much time to read the questions and there is negative marking, solving mock tests and previous years’ OJEE question papers is essential if you want to increase your speed and accuracy.

It is not mandatory to pay the OJEE application fee as soon as students fill the OJEE application form. But, they have to pay the OJEE form fee within 5 days of filling the OJEE registration form. An incomplete form without the fee will be rejected.
