I don't understand English. Even I can't speak english very fast ,so what should I do

Ans: Hi Guddu!!
English is a funny language... CAT is CAT but CYCLE is SAICLE.
You want to improve English, here are my suggestions -
1. have a proper tutor and learn it from scratch... like from the very beginning, start from A, B,C
2.start talking in English as much as possible don't bother if ppl laugh, your goal is to speak in English. I am learning French, I have learnt it in theory but yet to speak properly, so you want to speak in English well, then pls start conversing in English, that's the only way
3. make use of technology to pronounce words properly, write properly... watch you tube channels dedicated to English learning, use google to clear any doubts..
4. be in an environment of English --- read English newspaper, listen to the news in English ,look for opportunities to converse in English, watch English movies..

Happy learning!!

Sir i have taken drop to prepare for jee my previous jee percentile is 80 percentile I lack proper coaching and guidance sir please guide me which books should I follow to achieve good rank in main and advanced sir please suggest any online platform also for coaching i would like to go with pw is it okay for me? Sir please suggest books for jee prep and test series please I lack guidance and coaching sir so I have failed to crack it
Ans: The April JEE Session is imminent. I trust you have been preparing for this since your January session. Consequently, now is not an opportune moment to recommend or advise you on whether books, online test series, or online classes are appropriate for your April session and JEE Advanced (if eligible). I recommend that you revise all material you have studied thus far. Review incorrectly answered, challenging, and complex questions encountered in the past two years from your online mock test series, previous question banks, or any other resources. Continue to revise your concise notes if you have created them. Please consider taking 2-3 more admission examinations as alternatives, rather than solely depending on the JEE. Engage in 3-4 counseling sessions at institutions within your state or neighboring states that accept JEE scores. As an additional useful information, here is, Here is, How to Predict Your Chances of Admission into NIT or IIIT or GFTI for your 80 percentile score – A Step-by-Step Guide

Providing precise admission chances for each student can be challenging. Some reputed educational websites offer ‘College Predictor’ tools where you can check possible college options based on your percentile, category, and preferences. However, for a more accurate understanding, here’s a simple yet effective 9-step method using JoSAA’s past-year opening and closing ranks. This approach gives you a fair estimate (though not 100% exact) of your admission chances based on the previous year’s data.

Step-by-Step Guide to Check Your Admission Chances Using JoSAA Data
Step 1: Collect Your Key Details
Before starting, note down the following details:

Your JEE Main percentile (Convert your percentile into All India Rank with the help of a formula available in Google).
Your category (General-Open, SC, ST, OBC-NCL, EWS, PwD categories)
Preferred institute types (NIT, IIIT, GFTI)
Preferred locations (or if you're open to any location in India)
List of at least 3 preferred academic programs (branches) as backups (instead of relying on just one option)
Step 2: Access JoSAA’s Official Opening & Closing Ranks
Go to Google and type: JoSAA Opening & Closing Ranks 2024
Click on the first search result (official JoSAA website).
You will land directly on JoSAA’s portal, where you can enter your details to check past-year cutoffs.
Step 3: Select the Round Number
JoSAA conducts five rounds of counseling.
For a safer estimate, choose Round 4, as most admissions are settled by this round.
Step 4: Choose the Institute Type
Select NIT, IIIT, or GFTI, depending on your preference.
If you are open to all types of institutes, check them one by one instead of selecting all at once.
Step 5: Select the Institute Name (Based on Location)
It is recommended to check institutes one by one, based on your preferred locations.
Avoid selecting ‘ALL’ at once, as it may create confusion.
Step 6: Select Your Preferred Academic Program (Branch)
Enter the branches you are interested in, one at a time, in your preferred order.
Step 7: Submit and Analyze Results
After selecting the relevant details, click the ‘SUBMIT’ button.
The system will display Opening & Closing Ranks of the selected institute and branch for different categories.
Step 8: Note Down the Opening & Closing Ranks
Maintain a notebook or diary to record the Opening & Closing Ranks for each institute and branch you are interested in.
This will serve as a quick reference during JoSAA counseling.
Step 9: Adjust Your Expectations on a Safer Side
Since Opening & Closing Ranks fluctuate slightly each year, always adjust the numbers for safety.


Example Calculation:

If the Opening & Closing Ranks for NIT Delhi | Mechanical Engineering | OPEN Category show 8622 & 26186 (for Home State), consider adjusting them to 8300 & 23000 (on a safer side).
If the Female Category rank is 34334 & 36212, adjust it to 31000 & 33000.
Follow this approach for Other State candidates Option also and different categories.
Pro Tip: Adjust your expected rank slightly lower than the previous year's cutoffs for realistic expectations during JoSAA counseling.

Hope this guide helps! All the best for your admissions!
