Hi dear,





1. Start with the NCERT



NCERT books form the base for the JEE entrance exams, especially for the JEE Main. A common mistake made by many students is to start with reference books directly while their concepts and theoretical knowledge are not very strong. NCERT books will give you a firm grounding of concepts and, thus, are the best books to start your preparation. It is also worth noting that 60-70% of the JEE Main paper is based on NCERT books. However, they are not enough for practical questions.







2. Have a Curious Mind



You should have a curious mind and ask questions whenever you are reading a particular theory. You should be able to question every concept you are reading to gain a better understanding of each concept. Questioning concepts will help you widen your understanding and will, thus, help you solve various twisted questions based on the same theory. You can never solve problems if you are simply mugging concepts.







3. Solve with the Multiple Solution Technique



Whenever you are solving questions of a particular chapter, dont try to solve 100 questions for each topic, rather try solving a particular question in multiple ways. For example: In Mathematics, calculus problems can be solved using co-ordinate geometry and any complex number problem can be solved using vector calculus. This will help you in learning alternative methods of approaching a problem. In the actual paper, there will be times when you wont be able to solve a question using your preferred method. Knowing multiple methods of solving a question will help you arrive at result even if another approach is required.







4. Revise Wisely



Students generally either revise too much or they dont revise at all. Once you are through with a chapter, revise it thoroughly but dont spend more than 2-3 hours on the revision. Amplify your revision by solving practice questions on the topic from reference books instead. This will help you immediately understand the concepts you have just studied.







5. Manage your Time Efficiently



No matter how many efforts you put in or how many papers you solve, if you do not utilize your time effectively, you will never be able to complete and practice in time. To keep a better track of the time you allot to various chapters, revision, and practice, you can make use of time management apps. Even a simple tool like Google Calendar can be used to allot time or days to chapters/sections. It can be more effective than a printed calendar since it will give you reminders for different events.





Hope this helps

Hello Vishal

Yes you can.

You are in 11th right now and this is the best time to develop your concepts and clear your basics.

• Devote 8 hrs to self study daily.
• Follow NCERT by heart and revise it thoroughly.
• Keep practising the numericals and problems of Maths and Physics.
• For Chemistry, NCERT is sufficient.
• You should follow a reference book along with NCERT to have a deep understanding of topics.
• Practise mock tests.
• And at last, be relaxed and ace the exams.

Good luck
