JEE Main 2027: How to Prepare Alongside CBSE Board Exams?

With the examination schedules now announced, students should now prepare a subject-wise study plan to ace both exams.

  • Complete JEE Main revision before Session 1: Students should aim to complete their syllabus revision before the January examination. They should focus on important concepts, formulas, previous years’ questions and mock tests. Analysing mistakes after every mock test can also help improve accuracy.
  • Use NCERT textbooks for both examinations: NCERT books are important for CBSE board preparation and particularly useful for JEE Main Chemistry. Students should understand textbook concepts thoroughly while also practising application-based questions for the entrance examination.
  • Follow the CBSE subject-wise timetable: After JEE Main Session 1, students should give more time to board preparation. They should prioritise subjects according to their examination dates and practise previous years’ board papers, derivations and numerical questions.
  • Continue JEE preparation during board exams: Students appearing for Session 2 should not completely stop entrance exam preparation. They can revise formulas, practise selected questions and review mock tests for short durations alongside board studies.
  • Focus on time management: Students should avoid studying for long hours without breaks. A realistic timetable with dedicated slots for revision, question practice and rest can help them maintain consistency.
