My Son is in now in 12th Std and is preparing to answer NEET-UG in 2027. He is studying in Integrated Coaching Academy from 11th Std onwards. Although he is getting through the coaching classes and Self Studies, would like to know your expert advise to Follow the Study pattern to score good marks.

Ans: Hello Sanjay Ji
Below is my advice, please check if you find it helpful
Create a Structured Study Plan
Daily Routine: Ensure he follows a well-planned timetable covering all three subjects—Biology, Physics, and Chemistry—every day.

Balance Coaching & Self-Study: Coaching provides guidance, but self-study is where actual learning happens. He should revise daily what was taught in class.

Fixed Study Hours: At least 6-8 hours of effective self-study beyond coaching hours.

Subject-Wise Strategy

Biology (50% weightage, high-scoring)
NCERT is key—revise line by line.
Make short notes for revision.
Diagrams & flowcharts for quick recall.
Solve MCQs from previous years and coaching materials.

Chemistry
Physical: Focus on formulas and problem-solving techniques.
Inorganic: Memorization is essential—use mnemonics and charts.
Organic: Understand reaction mechanisms, practice conversions, and focus on named reactions.

Physics
Strengthen concepts—don’t just memorize formulas.
Derivations help in understanding applications.
Solve numerical problems daily, especially from HC Verma, DC Pandey, or coaching materials.
Work on previous years’ NEET Physics questions.

Practice & Revision
Regular Tests: Take topic-wise, chapter-wise, and full-length mock tests.
Time Management: Solve NEET papers within 3 hours to simulate exam conditions.
Error Analysis: After every test, analyze mistakes and avoid repeating them.
Revision Strategy: Use the Feynman technique—explain concepts to yourself or someone else.

Mental & Physical Well-being
Avoid Burnout: Take short breaks
Healthy Lifestyle: Proper sleep (6-8 hours), exercise, and a balanced diet.
Stay Motivated: Have a vision board of goals, track progress, and maintain a positive mindset.

Hope you find this helpful.

Sir, I wanted to talk regarding my son Raghu who is studying in 12th. He wants to be a doctor and has been preparing for NEET-UG for the last two years. According to his tutor, he scores well in mock tests but he struggles with time management. Can you please suggest some tips and advice to Raghu? How can he improve his speed and accuracy for NEET exam? Thank you in advance
Ans: Of course, I'd be happy to offer some advice for Raghu to improve his time management and accuracy in the NEET-UG exam. Here are some tips he can follow:

1. Practice Regularly: Regular practice is crucial for improving both speed and accuracy. Encourage Raghu to solve practice papers and previous years' question papers regularly to get accustomed to the exam pattern and improve his speed.

2. Mock Tests: Since Raghu's tutor mentioned that he performs well in mock tests, it's a good sign. However, he should take these tests under simulated exam conditions to get a better idea of time management during the actual exam.

3. Time Allocation: Raghu should learn to allocate time to each section of the exam according to its weightage and difficulty level. It's essential to not spend too much time on any single question.

4. Skip and Return: If Raghu finds a question too time-consuming or difficult, advise him to skip it temporarily and return to it later if time permits. He shouldn't get stuck on any particular question.

5. Elimination Technique: Teach Raghu the art of eliminating obviously incorrect options in multiple-choice questions. This will help him narrow down his choices and make educated guesses if necessary, saving time.

6. Focus on Weak Areas: Identify Raghu's weak areas and focus on improving them. Targeted practice in these areas can boost his confidence and efficiency.

7. Time-bound Practice: During practice sessions, Raghu should set time limits for solving questions. Gradually, he can reduce the time allocated to each question to improve his speed.

8. Stay Calm and Focused: Remind Raghu to stay calm and focused during the exam. Panicking or feeling overwhelmed can lead to poor time management and decreased accuracy.

9. Avoid Overthinking: Sometimes, students tend to overthink or second-guess themselves, which can waste valuable time. Encourage Raghu to trust his instincts and move on to the next question if he's unsure.

10. Healthy Lifestyle: Lastly, ensure Raghu maintains a healthy lifestyle with proper diet, exercise, and sufficient sleep. A healthy body and mind are essential for optimal performance in exams.

By following these tips and practicing diligently, Raghu can improve his speed and accuracy, ultimately enhancing his performance in the NEET-UG exam.

I am on 11th grade I have taken pcmb I don't know what my interest is! I have taken pw neet online but seeing the scams and reality of mbbs I feel trapped I don't know what I like and what I want to pursue recently I saw few videos regarding uceed exam for bachelor in design I feel I doing that but I have no proper coaching and I feel stuck and sad I am afraid to take a bad career decision how will I manage pcmb with neet prep and uceed what to do and if I prepare for uceed and not qualify it what other career am I left with I hate this system please please please help me how to find your interest and career option and not regret it
Ans: Hello dear
It’s completely normal to feel lost in 11th grade with PCMB because it keeps many career paths open, but it can also feel overwhelming. First, pause and explore your interests through small steps, try free online design workshops, aptitude tests, or internships to see if design (UCEED) truly excites you. Don’t panic about NEET or MBBS scams; prepare only if you genuinely enjoy biology and the medical field. UCEED doesn’t require heavy coaching; self-practice, online resources, and creative sketching can be enough. If you don’t clear UCEED, your PCMB background still offers options like engineering, architecture, BSc, or even other design exams (NID, NIFT). Focus on experimenting and exploring instead of committing blindly; your clarity will come from trying different things, not from pressure. Remember, you’re not stuck; you just haven’t discovered what clicks with you yet. Always stay calm and relaxed. Don't think negatively all the time. Focus only on your studies and your goal. Success is possible. Scams have existed in the past, will continue, and will also persist in the future!


Good luck.

Sir my jee crl rank 50000 any chance for csab counselling in govt institute
Ans: With an All-India CRL of 50 000, securing core branches like CSE ECE in NITs through CSAB-Special rounds is highly unlikely. For instance, CSAB-Special closing ranks for CSE at NIT Nagaland (OS-General) stood between 31 391 and 36 193, and for ECE between 42 905 and 42 905, both above your rank. Chemical Engineering and Computer Science similarly close within the 25 000–35 000 range at mid-tier NITs like Calicut and Srinagar, placing them beyond reach. However, admissions remain feasible for branches with higher closing ranks. Electrical and Electronics Engineering at NIT Nagaland closed at 47 387–48 987, narrowly above your rank but sometimes seats open in later rounds. Mechanical Engineering at low-tier NITs (e.g., Nagaland, Mizoram) often closes beyond 50 000, making it a viable alternative. Among IIITs, non-CSE/ECE programs in peripheral campuses—such as IIIT Kalyani’s IT or IIIT Kota’s AI & Data Engineering—have closing ranks around 40 000–46 000, offering realistic options. GFTIs like PEC Chandigarh and the sister institutes of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar NIT Jalandhar also admit core branches with closing ranks well above 50 000, ensuring government-institute pathways remain open. Overall, the most practical CSAB routes for your rank are targeting Electrical/Electronics or Mechanical Engineering in low-tier NITs, considering peripheral IIITs for adjacent core branches, and keeping GFTI choices handy.

Recommendation: Aim for Electrical & Electronics Engineering at NIT Nagaland under OS-General given its relatively higher closing threshold, concurrently explore Mechanical Engineering at NIT Mizoram or similar low-tier NITs, and include peripheral IIIT IT/AI-Data branches alongside GFTI core-engineering options to maximize admission success. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Sir,I am getting IIT Guwahati online BSc(Honors) in Data Science and AI How is it? Should I take it?
Ans: Shreyansh, IIT Guwahati’s four-year online BSc (Hons) in Data Science Artificial Intelligence, delivered via Coursera by the Mehta Family School of DSAI, combines academic rigor, flexibility, and industry relevance. Accreditation and oversight by IIT Guwahati ensure AICTE compliance and affiliation with NIRF-ranked faculty; the curriculum spans 299 credits across foundational (linear algebra, statistics), core (data structures, machine learning, deep learning, AI ethics) and advanced modules (cloud computing, recommender systems) with capstone projects and optional on-campus immersion. Instructors include IITG professors and industry experts, and students gain hands-on training on PARAM Kamrupa and PARAM Ishan supercomputers, alongside real-world case studies and internships with MoU-backed partners. The program’s multi-entry/exit structure and pay-per-credit model (?3.49 L total) caters to both recent graduates and working professionals, offering completion in 4–8 years and multiple credentials (certificate, diploma, BSc, honours). Strong demand for data roles is projected by the World Economic Forum to grow over 30% by 2028, and IITG’s focus on generative AI, big data, NLP and ethics aligns with NEP 2020 objectives, enhancing employability in data engineering, analytics, AI research and consultancy. Backup options could include specialised online programs from E&ICT Academy IITG or reputable private firms, and an on-campus BTech in DS&AI at IIT Delhi or IIIT-D for deeper hardware/algorithmic exposure.

Recommendation: IIT Guwahati’s online BSc (Hons) offers a robust theoretical-practical blend, flexible pacing, and supercomputing access, making it a strong choice. As a secondary plan, consider the E&ICT Academy certificate for domain-focused projects or an on-campus interdisciplinary BTech at IIIT-Delhi to diversify skill portfolios. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
