Crack JEE MAIN with Two Subjects

JEE (Joint Entrance examination) MAIN is a common engineering entrance examination for admission in eminent institutions like IITs and NITs including various other reputed engineering colleges. The aspirants seeking admission in IITs need to qualify JEE Advanced which is a very promising undergraduate admission test. But first step is to clear JEE Main. Every year more than 1.2 Million candidates appear for JEE Main and this number will keep increasing which essentially make it more challenging. Therefore one has to prepare well to crack this competitive exam.

JEE Main Question Paper consists of three sections of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Every subject will have 30 questions with equal distribution of marks.

When we start preparing for this exam, this question often comes in mind which subject/subjects one should study more or which can be skipped. But neglecting any one subject totally is very risky. Sometimes students work very hard on those subjects in which they are competent, skipping the subject which does not interest them. But this might be unfavourable in the exam because more often than not the subjects you bring to perfection, might be very difficult and extensive. This situation can lead to panic in the examination. So, for the safe side students should cover the important and easy topics of the third subject too. Further if you very proficient in any two subjects then also you can score somewhere around 65% in the examination. It should be noticed that every section has some simple, moderate and tough questions. Prepare yourself in such a way that you would be able to solve simple and moderate questions of all three subject. This will add up 60 percent or more in your scorecard and ultimately your rank will be upgraded. If you want to focus on any two subjects then here are some tips how to manage the third subject:

Mathematics and Chemistry as prior subjects

Go through with every concepts of chemistry and worked on related problems. Mathematics requires a lot of practice. Give your time and energy to this subject. Now what you have to do with physics is to divide the chapters according to the difficulty level and weightage. Physics questions are based on theory and calculations and a combination of both. Read the theory part thoroughly and practice on related problems. This year Kinematics, measurement and error analysis, Electronic Devices, Electromagnetic Induction, Magnetic Effects of Current and Magnetism had comparatively simple questions than Electrostatics, Electromagnetic waves and modern Physics had tough questions. But your choice may vary so work on the topics of your choice and potential.

Physics and Chemistry as prior subjects

Many students find it very difficult to perform well in Maths as it is not simply or promptly done. You should be very determined and skilful for this subject. So students want to skip it. But remember that it is very significant and rank deciding also. Maths is very mounting-subject but first, you need fundamental understanding in every area. Further, most of the questions in the exam are calculative so practice is very important. Work on the easiest sections. Last year Algebra had the maximum number of questions followed by Calculus and comics.

Physics & Mathematics as prior subjects

Prepare mathematics and Physics very well so that you can solve maximum number of questions.

But you should remember that chemistry is somewhat easier and more scoring amongst these. Chapters like Chemical bonding, Hydrocarbons, p-block elements, purification of organic compounds had easy questions in last year exam. Again questions asked in the examination are mainly based on theory and calculations. Also, the weightage of Physical chemistry was more followed by Organic and Inorganic chemistry. So try to cover some portions of this subject according to your choice.

It is advisable that do not ignore any subject because you cannot predict which one is going to be most scoring! Moreover, if you qualify the exam and go to IIT then also you will need to have a good understanding of all three subjects. 

Also, It is always better to TRY and fail than never to TRY at all. So, find out your weak spots and fill the holes with practice and conception.

How to Prepare for Medical Entrance Exams

1. Strategies or schedule your preparation. One should know how much time they have to invest in a particular topic. Give more time to important topics/chapters.

Time Management 
The first thing to learn about Time Management is that time is theoretical so you can’t really manage it. What you do when you get into time management, is that you manage yourself. You decide what has to be done when it must be done and how to do it in the stipulated time. Remember, good time management for a student is not about creating a complex schedule that gives you account for every second of your day. It is about one simple choice: either you will control your homework, or it will control you. Good time management puts you in control. On the other hand, poor time management can put you behind your schedule and hence gives a feeling of unhappiness. At times, it may even cause frustration and anxiety which may further affect your studies. To avoid this situation, it is imperative to carefully plan & monitor your time spend.

2. Take a mock test regularly to access your preparation and to improve your strike rate. Strike rate can be improved with the help of intelligent guessing. Intelligent guessing means guessing a question you are not completely sure but have some idea about. Your objective is not to solve the question but choosing the correct option out of the 4 given choices. So always try to eliminate the choices. Remember that if one choice is eliminated, chances of your guess being right is 33% (in comparison to a blind guess where the chances of being right are 25%) and if two are eliminated the chances of hitting the right answer are 50%.

3. Solve previous year question papers to get an idea of the type and pattern of the question being asked in the exam.

4. Be clear about the basics like syllabus, exam pattern, marking criteria etc.

5. You can also go for chapter wise and topic wise tests to identify your weak areas where you have to work more. Success gap helps in analyzing the performance of the students in a test by identifying strong & weak areas so that the student can prepare accordingly. Success gap is the difference between the marks you are currently scoring in a test & the marks which you should score to clear the exams. The cut-off in various tests is based on the experience of our faculty & our interaction with the students preparing for different competitive examinations.
For example: if in a mock test of CBSE your marks are 520 & the cutoff marks (passing marks) is 560 the success gap is 40 marks. Now the question is where is the success gap (which subject & which topic) & how to fill this success gap. To find out this we go for the detailed analysis of the score.



From the result you can clearly see that the student over-performed in Botany & under-performed maximum in Physics. Now we further analyze the success gap in Physics, which is the highest by doing question by question analysis of Physics paper. The result of the analysis says that the student scored poorly in Physics because of two reasons.

• Level 1 (Basic) problems in Heat (meaning his basic concepts of Heat are poor & he needs to go through them again) In this case the student would also not be able to solve application-based problems of HEAT.
• Level 3 (Proficient) problems of light: This means that the basic concepts of the student are all right but his application is poor so he needs more practice of similar problems.

Hence it clearly states that analysis of test with success gap can help you in knowing the areas where you should focus your energies.

6. Note making of your weak areas and important formulas can rectify the same.
7. Revision is very important it should be kept to end this practice should be followed on the weekly (chapterwise) and monthly (units) basis.

Last few Days Before The Exam

• Avoid any activity which may cause anxiety. Focus on whatever you have studied
• Under no circumstance you should solve problems in the last few days This may have a damaging influence on your confidence and ability to solve questions and problems during the examination
• Stop discussion or review of the subject at least 1 to 2 days before commencement of the examination. Many students insist on cramming till the last minute. This is absolutely unnecessary and leads to additional tension and problems. Relax the day before the examination. Do what you like the best or do what makes you happy or motivates you.
• Focus your attention on the main points of revision. Time is very limited and how you spend it, is important. This is not the time for learning minute details or a new topic. Write down the main points as you go through your notes. This will fix the ideas in your mind.
• When with friends, try not to talk excessively about how nervous you are, how you are going to perform and what the final results might be. This will only succeed in making you more nervous and will take your attention off your preparation.
• Be confident. But do not be overconfident - this will cause you to become complacent and overlook important stuff during the revision process. Avoid discouraging yourself. Be optimistic and positive
• Get enough rest and recreation. "Though it's important to practise and revise the important points, do not overstuff your mind in the last few days. Remain confident and maintain calm." — Kartikeya Gupta (JEE Advanced AIR 4) 2013

8. Keep in mind time management and negative marking while attempting question paper. Don't spend more than 3-4 min on any question.

"I followed a planned time management strategy during the exam and skipped difficult questions. First, I tried to solve easy questions correctly. In the second round, I attempted the difficult ones and to my surprise, I could solve most of them." 

— Prathu Baronia the topper in JEE Main 2014

9. If in case any question is not getting solved within 3-4 min first complete your paper completely and then return to that question.

10. Lastly while preparing don't get overstressed and loaded with work. Avoid sleep deprivation as these activities can affect your mental and physical capabilities thereby affecting your performance in the exam.

5 Tips to Score Good in Physics

Physics is one of the most practical subjects and thus, it is considered a very interesting subject. Students having complete acquaintance with the basics question the rationale of nature and energy easily gets immersed in the subject and develop a deep interest in the subject. This eventually leads them to score more in their physics exams easily.

In this article, some of the important tips are given that can help the students to learn physics in a better way and eventually score well in the exams.

●       Focus on Basics

There are certain laws and concepts that are required to understand several other topics. Topics like laws of motion, laws of thermodynamics, etc. are fundamental topics and are used in numerous higher level concepts. Also, it is suggested to understand the derivations from the basics rather than mugging them.

●      Pay attention to the units

In the physics exam, there are several numerical questions. An answer without a unit is considered incomplete and the students might lose some crucial marks. Also, often some direct questions are asked regarding the unit of a particular entity. For numerical questions, the students need to convert all the different units in SI and then start solving the questions to get the correct answer.

●      Practice and Periodic Revision

As several numerical questions are included in the physics exams, it is advisable to practice different question variations from each chapter to be able to solve questions in the exam more efficiently. Also, as various terminologies, concepts, laws and formulas are present in the physics topics, it is important to keep revising them periodically to be able to retain them for longer.

●      Draw Diagrams

In topics, especially mechanics, it is very important to draw diagrams while solving the questions. Also, questions based on electric circuits becomes very easy if the circuit diagrams are drawn. So, it is advised to draw diagrams whenever possible to be able to solve the physics questions more efficiently.

●      Relate the Concepts Practically

This is one of the most important tips to learn physics in a better way. As physics is a very practical subject, most of its topics can be related practically. By relating the concepts practically, students tend to develop more interest in the subject and hence, learn more effectively.

With these tips, students can easily learn physics in a better way and score more in the exams. Topics like enthalpy, electrolysis, thermodynamics, etc. are extremely important for chemistry also and are used in several higher level concepts. So, it is suggested to learn physics from the basic and develop an interest in its concepts early.
