Here's how you can achieve success in the IIT JEE exam

Here's how you can achieve success in the IIT JEE exam -   1. Focusing on the goal is absolutely necessary, if any. You must have a strong desire to achieve the goal. There should be no target to distract the target and between you. 2. Positive attitude to success is very important. Believe in yourself, work hard, stay firm, believe that success will be needed. 3. No substitute for hard work. Everyone should be fearlessly endeavoring. This is the super-30 success formula. Students should never give up and work hard day and night. 4. An examination can not decide the victory and defeat in your life. The efforts should continue. Mistakes happen, they learn a lot from them. After realizing the mistake, steps can be taken to correct it. 5. Patience is very important for success. Many times we try hard to live without life and accept defeat if we fail. Failure should not be disappointed. Understand this as a step towards success. 6. Understanding theories and formulas i

Physics Physics is an interesting as well as tough subject for JEE. Basically, you need to have clear concepts. When you see a problem you must know which formulae to apply and which not to. I would say reading books helps. Also solve a good number of questions which covers all types of problems. Must do's are NCERT, HC Verma, previous years' papers and a good objective question bank(like DC Pandey Practice problems book, or MCQ by D Mukherjee or a good coaching material). You can also use books like Irodov, Resnick Halliday(I used Krane Edition), Krotov, Olympiad papers, etc. However these are not really necessary but develop good grip, and are useful for Olympiads. Mathematics Many students have problem in solving Mathematics questions. There is just one solution to this problem: practice. When you study a topic in mathematics, first study the theory of a small section, like study summation of AP formula and derivation, then solve a few formula based

How to Improve Test Perfomance :IIT JEE Topper

Another problem faced by many students is test performance . You study a lot, you know everything, you practice a lot, but still get less marks. Some factors which affect test performance are speed, accuracy, knowledge, paper attempting strategy, composure, and concentration. For speed you should try to solve exercises at home in limited time like tests. Knowledge develops over time as you study and practice more. Accuracy can be improved by quickly rechecking the answers by p lugging in values, reading options and questions twice, carefulness while solving, etc. Paper attempting strategy is also very important. For me it was like this after some experimentation. I attempted all easy and memory based questions in chemistry first, then I went to mathematics and solved a few very easy formula based questions, then I went to physics and solved easy and conventional questions.  Then I attempted chemistry almost fully except the very tough and unknown questions. Th

How to crack IITJEE without coaching? Toppers Suggestions

Many students don't have access to coaching and do self studies. This article is for them. You might think that you are lagging behind coaching students but you are not. What counts the most is your effort, dedication, and confidence. You even have the freedom to study at your own pace and can have a good study schedule. According to me a good plan is this: First study in your school. Pay attention well. Then come home and solve school homework. Now you know some basics. Time to take it to JEE level . Use some standard books like HC Verma, Solomons edited version, JD Lee edited version, Arihant skills in mathematics to study topics at JEE level. You might also like to have some DLP packages for objective problem practice. Resonance material is really very good, you might take it. You may also join test series if you think you are doing well at home and want to know your standing. Try to solve questions from books which have solutions as you might ha

Advice From IIT JEE 2017 Topper : How to Crack it in 12 Months

This article is about those students who could not study much in 11th and are now serious in class twelfth. . You still have 12 months and you need not worry. You can still do wonders.  Just have confidence. First of all never revise 11th at the cost of 12th . It would only worsen the problem. you should do all your class 12 study with complete satisfaction and then take out some time daily around 1-2 hours to revise 11th. You may also utilise Sundays and holidays for this. If you have an upcoming chapter which requires use of some 11th concept ( like Electro-chemistry requires ionic equilibrium ) then revise it first to understand the 12th topic nicely. Then you should revise those topics which are basic and important like NLM, SHM,Rotation, Mole concept,GOC, Quadratic equations, Straight lines, Trigonometry, etc. which are to be used in 12th topics as well. Topics like Binomial Theorem, Probability, Permutations and Combinations, Properties of Triangles, F

Advice From IIT JEE 2017 Topper : Start Your Preparation

Many students who have entered class 11 this year have been worried about preparation.  So this is for you! There is a huge gap between class 10 and class 11 . More syllabus, tougher questions , and above all pressure of JEE preparation . So things become very difficult for many students. Many of you might not be able to catch up with your studies. It is very normal and you must not take stress of any sort. Many of you might not be able to solve kinematic problems but don't worry. After two years you would be laughing on them. Same goes for all other topics. Those who are doing well keep up your hard work and start going for tougher questions from Irodov, etc. Be regular with your studies and complete all your assignments regularly. Never leave any concept untouched as backlogs build up very fast and it becomes very difficult to cover later on. If you are unable to solve a problem don't worry, discuss with teachers. Many people waste their 11

Advice From IIT JEE 2017 Topper : Books

Many people have been asking me about the books Toppers followed for JEE preparation. So here's the list I would say that the best option is to join a national level coaching centre and solve their material.If you want more practice go for HC Verma, Irodov (only for those who are very good at physics), Arihant skills in mathematics series, NCERT (must), etc. Those who are doing self study you too should try to join some test series and Distance Learning Program as it really helps. To them, I would recommend reading NCERT , HC Verma , and Arihant skills in Maths first. Then solve their questions and your Distance Learning Program material. If you still have time, go for previous JEE papers, Irodov . The books I followed are- Physics- HCV, NCERT, Reso material, Irodov, Resnick Halliday Krane, Olympiad papers, Krotov, Some portions from Griffiths and Morin Mathematics-  Reso material, previous JEE papers, A Das Gupta subjective, Arihant skills in M
