Sir, I've been trying very hard everyday. There is so much pressure because it's my 2nd attempt but still I'm getting around 45-60 marks which converts into 75-85 percentile after analysing the mocks. I see myself in 80s. I am making some silly mistakes by not picking up the correct question. I want to know what I should do to pick the right Qs. Will I be able to score 97-98 percentile?

Ans: While writing mocks, I would implore you all to not focus only on the scores

Instead focus your energy to

A. Attempt the test again at home and identify if the shortcoming in scores was due to Time pressure OR due to lack of preparation

B. Identify the strong and weak areas

C. Look at solutions and identify ways to improve your approach.

D. Tabulate all your data so that you can analyse the performance at one go

E. Try and finalize an approach for the next mock

try this and there is no reason not to hit 97/ 98 percentile

Question by Gautam - Jun 07, 2024Hindi

Career

I have secured a 85.5 percentile and there is one of my friend who secured 89 percentile the only difference in our prepration was that he completed almost 90 percentage of syllabus and I had only completed only 40 percentage of syllabus so can it be at extreme difference and secondly he is taking a drop and he have completed the syllabus almost but I have not so if I take a drop will I get good result as he will if can so how because I have completed a very few portion of syllabus. And some time also doubt that how did even score 85 percentile in jee mains with only few portion of syllabus

Ans: Gautam, Please note, (1) scoring above 97-98 percentile (from 85.5) is not that much easy at the same time, NOT Impossible, if you plan for a Drop for Next Year. Some IMPORTANT Points You Please Keep in Mind: (2) You should definitely cover 100% Syllabus (3) There is no important / unimportant Chapters as far as JEE is concerned. (4) Avoid comparing yourself from others (5) Devise a good preparation strategy, for ILLUSTRATIVE examples (i) Give much importance to Maths & Physics, followed by Chemistry as JEE is Rank is allotted on the basis of highest score in Maths, then Physics & Chemistry which I hope you might be aware. (ii) Join any Coaching Centre, preferably nearby your home like ALLEN. But avoid FITJEE as the Study materials of FITJEE is much advanced. (iii) Giving more importance to Difficult / Complicated / Lengthy / Wrongly Answered Questions (iv) Keep practicing Online Test Series, provided by the Coaching Center and take notes of Wrongly Answered Questions to revise / refer time and again also before your JEE. All The BEST for your Bright Future, Gautam. I hope I have clarified your doubts.

Asked by Anonymous - Mar 11, 2025Hindi

How can I improve my percentile from 96.5 to 98 in 2nd attempt total attempted 48 (physics 16, chem 21, math 9) 39 correct (physics 14, chem 15, math 8) one bonus was obtained in physics Total scored 143 (139+4), negative 9

Ans: Hi,

After analyzing the marks you scored in both attempts of the JEE, I have some suggestions for you.

Firstly, it seems that you are weaker in math. I recommend focusing more on this subject by taking online tests and using relevant books to improve your skills.

It appears you might be concentrating on understanding the subjects well, but I’m not sure if you are utilizing tips and tricks for problem-solving. Learning and applying these strategies can significantly improve your score in the JEE.

Just give it a try, and I believe you will achieve an excellent score next time!

All the best!

Question by Ganesh - Dec 03, 2025Hindi

Money

Hello Sir/Mam, Currently I'm investing in SIP as per below for the last 3 years, my goal is to achieve 2 crores by the next 10 years. Please suggest me if these MFs are good or any rebalancing is required. I'm planning to increase the SIP by 10% each year. Parag Parikh Flexi Cap - 5K Aditya Birla SF BAF - 2K SBI Large & Midcap - 5K Quant Small Cap - 3K SBI Gold Fund - Growth - 5K Canara Robeco Large cap - 5K Thanks.

Ans: Hello & thanks for writing to me.

Your portfolio is well-allocated across flexicap, large & midcap, small cap, BAF and gold, offering a balanced mix of growth, stability and diversification.

Given your 10-year horizon, keeping a higher allocation towards flexicap and large & midcap funds is appropriate, as these categories help manage volatility while still capturing long-term growth. The small-cap exposure adds additional long-term growth potential, while the Balanced Advantage Fund (BAF) provides stability through its dynamic asset allocation. Your gold allocation further supports diversification and can cushion the portfolio during equity market stress.

At this stage, no major rebalancing is needed. Since you plan to increase your SIPs by 10% every year, directing this additional amount mainly towards your flexicap or large & midcap fund will further strengthen the core of your portfolio over time.

Dating, Relationships Expert - Answered on Dec 04, 2025

Asked by Anonymous - Dec 02, 2025Hindi

Relationship

My married ex still texts me for comfort. Because of him, I am unable to move on. He makes me feel guilty by saying he got married out of family pressure. His dad is a cardiac patient and mom is being treated for cancer. He comforts me by saying he will get separated soon and we will get married because he only loves me. We have been in a relationship for 14 years and despite everything we tried, his parents refused to accept me, so he chose to get married to someone who understands our situation. I don't know when he will separate from his wife. She knows about us too but she comes from a traditional family. She also confirmed there is no physical intimacy between them. I trust him, but is it worth losing my youth for him? Honestly, I am worried and very confused.

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand how difficult it is to let go of a relationship you have built from scratch, but is it really how you want to continue? It really seems to be going nowhere. His parents are already in bad health and he married someone else for their happiness. Does it seem like he will be able to leave her? So many people’s happiness and lives depend on this one decision. I think it’s about time you and your BF have a clear conversation about the same. If he can’t give a proper timeline, please try to understand his situation. But also make sure he understands yours and maybe rethink this equation. It really isn’t healthy. You deserve a love you can have wholly, and not just in pieces, and in the shadows.

Hope this helps

Asked by Anonymous - Dec 02, 2025Hindi

Relationship

Hi Anu, My husband doesn't do house chores. We both work full-time, but I still end up cooking, cleaning, and doing laundry. When I ask for help, my partner will say, ‘Just tell me what to do,’ but then he conveniently forgets. Maybe he doesn't like it or he is genuinely forgetful. I have tried many ways to make him explain. Once I only did my share of laundry to make him realise but he simply ignored. Every week this pattern repeats. Is this normal? How can married couples divide responsibilities fairly to avoid fights?

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
Every home has a different routine and share of responsibilities. So, there's no standard norm to challenge it as normal or not!
So, if you want your husband to pitch in, then say it in clear terms, especially since he has told you to tell him what to do.
Once you have told him, do make sure to ask him: Will you find it convenient to do it now or later? If later, when?
This will ensure that he makes a statement of commitment, so there's no question of forgetting it, right? Play it smart...it's better than feeling bad about the situation or mulling over why something does not work.

All the best!

Question by 3m - Nov 26, 2025Hindi

Career

My son will be appearing for JEE Main & JEE Advanced 2026 and will participate in JoSAA Counselling 2026. I request clarification regarding the GEN-EWS certificate date requirement for next year. I have already applied for an EWS certificate for current year 2025, and the application is under process. However, I am unsure whether this certificate will be accepted during JoSAA 2026, or whether candidates will be required to submit a fresh certificate for FY 2026–27 (issued on or after 1 April 2026). My concern is that if JoSAA requires a certificate issued after 1 April 2026, students will have only 1–1.5 months to complete the entire procedure, which is difficult considering normal government processing timelines. Also, during current JEE form filling, students are asked to upload a GEN-EWS certificate issued on or after 1 April 2025, or an application acknowledgement. This has created confusion among parents regarding which year’s certificate will finally be valid at the time of counselling. I request your kind guidance on: Which GEN-EWS certificate will be accepted for JoSAA Counselling 2026 — a certificate for FY 2025–26 (issued after 1 April 2025), or a new certificate for FY 2026–27 (issued after 1 April 2026)?

Ans: Hi
You need not worry about the EWS certificate. Even if you apply for the next year's certificate on 1 Apr 2026, the second session of JEE MAINS will still be held, followed by JEE ADVANCED, which will be held in May. JOSAA starts in June. so you will have 2 months in hand for fresh EWS certificate.
