Study Plan

The basic rule to crack any entrance exam is by understanding your weakness. Work on your weakness and turn them into your strengths. In the case of NEET 2018, many of you just go through the concepts, making notes of important equations and formulas. But, you need to prepare a study plan learn concepts, learn by attempting sample papers and go through previous year papers to know the pattern of the examination.

5 Tips to be Exceptional in Physics

The subject of physics is full of wonders and plays a major role in shaping the future of civilization. The subject deals with nature, energy, matter and their mutual interactions. Physics is considered one of the most interesting subjects by several students of varying age groups.

The concepts in physics cannot be grasped in a jiffy and require a thorough understanding and in-depth knowledge of the basics. So, it is important for a student to get immersed in the subject and slowly develop an interest in the related concepts.

Here 5 most important tips are given to help the students get engaged and be exceptional in the subject.

Get Thorough with the Basics:

The subject of physics includes some basic concepts and laws which are extremely important to understand the higher level theories and topics. For example, the topics like thermodynamics are vast and it gets complicated if one is not through with the basic laws governing thermodynamics.

So, it is suggested to pay attention to the basics before trying to learn higher level questions. Getting through with the basics also benefits the students to easily grasp the derived laws and formulas.

Give Importance to the Derivations:

Most of the complex equations and formulas in physics are derived from some basic relations of the related quantities. Sometimes, simple formulas are modified and used in certain situations. So, students are advised to get through with the basic derivations to be able to understand higher level concepts easily and effectively.

Improve Mathematical Skills:

The problems in physics mostly revolve around the mathematical fundamentals. Most of the questions including kinematics, laws of motions, etc. require the students to have a proper mathematical foundation to be able to solve them.

In higher grades, mathematical topics like calculus and trigonometry are widely used to understand and solve the physics problems. So, it can be said that to be exceptional in physics, one must also be exceptional in mathematics.

Learn to Draw Proper Diagrams:

In physics, representation of quantities through diagrams is extremely crucial. It is considered that the students who can interpret the questions correctly and represent the quantities as diagrams have better knowledge of the fundamentals.

By drawing diagrams, solving the questions also becomes easier. For example, solving the kinematics questions become very easy if the free body diagram is made and the forces acting on the body are represented accurately.

Relate and Simplify:

Physics is a subject that relates to the environment and surroundings. All the topics involve physical quantities and their interactions. So, it is suggested to avoid mugging the concepts and learn them by relating to the surroundings. Topics like the electric current, laws of motion, etc. becomes relatable and simple if they are associated with everyday life.

For example, while studying electric current and power consumption, the students can associate the concepts with their home and understand the practical relevance of the terms used in the concepts.

With these crucial tips, almost any student can easily be exceptional in physics and develop an interest in the subject. The subject of physics can be extremely interesting and engaging if students completely immerse themselves in learning the concepts.
