My son is in 11th grade CBSE and for JEE coaching we have opted vedhantu online . Does he need extra coaching for taking up other exams like KCET, COMDEK? Pls advice

Ans: JEE Main preparation covers extensive Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics concepts, but state-level exams like KCET and COMEDK emphasize direct, board-syllabus topics and speed-based MCQs that differ slightly from JEE patterns. COMEDK’s syllabus mirrors JEE Main but features more questions and no negative marking, demanding higher accuracy and time management, while KCET omits several advanced JEE chapters and tests quick recall of Class 11–12 board content. Vedantu’s JEE coaching provides strong conceptual grounding, so supplementing with dedicated COMEDK mock tests and KCET topic-wise practice—focusing on state-syllabus chapters removed from JEE—is advisable. Integrating afternoon sessions for KCET revision and specific COMEDK speed drills alongside JEE training ensures balanced readiness for all three exams without redundant classes. Recommendation: Continue Vedantu’s JEE program and add targeted online practice modules—mock tests and state-syllabus reviews—for KCET and COMEDK rather than enrolling in a full extra coaching course.
