Good evening ma'am Ma'am actually im facing prblm with physics and chem Im not able to study these subjects easily coz the numericals are very hard to understand instead biology thats going well and good but not these two subjects...and ma'am only 1 monthe is left for exam...can u suggest me wgat to do..??

Ans: First of all, you need to set up a study plan. Make sure it is realistic and achievable. Divide the topics in physics and chemistry into manageable chunks that you can go through one by one. Create a timeline and set daily, weekly, and monthly goals that you can work towards and that way you will feel a great sense of accomplishment and motivation when you complete them.

Next, start by having a comprehensive overview of the topics in physics and chemistry. Get a clear understanding of what is needed and use this to create a list of topics that need to be learned and studied in detail. Make sure you set aside time every day to revise, practice and make notes as this will help you to retain the information you are learning.

It's also essential that you practice as much as possible. This means solving previous years' question papers, mock tests, and practice online tests. Doing so will help you to understand your strengths and weaknesses so that you can focus on improving your weaker areas. It'll also give you an indication of how well you are progressing towards your goal.

Finally, try to get feedback from expert tutors who can guide you through your studies. They will also be able to identify any weak areas where you may need extra attention in order to get the best results.

Sir my daughter got 90% in jee mains she can get NIT cse course sir I. Am genral category
Ans: Miranalini Madam, Here is, How to Predict Your Daughter's Chances of Admission into NIT or IIIT or GFTI After JEE Main Results – 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 daughter's admission chances based on the previous year’s data.

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

Her JEE Main percentile
Her category (General-Open, SC, ST, OBC-NCL, EWS, PwD categories)
Her Preferred institute types (NIT, IIIT, GFTI)
Her 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 she is 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 her preferred locations.
Avoid selecting ‘ALL’ at once, as it may create confusion.
Step 6: Select Her 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 both Home State (HS) i.e. State your daughter belongs to & also Other State (OS).
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, separately for HS & OS Categories for a quick reference.
This will serve as a quick reference during JoSAA counseling.
Step 9: Adjust Her 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 and different categories.
Pro Tip: Adjust her expected rank slightly lower than the previous year's cutoffs for realistic expectations during JoSAA counseling.

Can This Method Be Used for JEE April & JEE Advanced?
Yes! You can repeat the same steps after your April JEE Main results to refine your admission possibilities.
You can also follow a similar process for JEE Advanced cutoffs when applying for IITs.
