How I manage time during written exam? My preparation is good not exceptional. How to score maximum plz sir. Tomorrow is my exam

Ans: Hello Bhumika
These last days should be utilized very effectively. This is actually the consolidation phase for what you have done in your 2 years of preparation.

Appear for more and more mock tests. It will help you in identifying your weak topics. And then you have to give more attention to your weak topics. The easy ones or those with whom you are comfortable should require less time & you can just go through them. Discuss your mistakes with your teachers, don't directly ask them for solutions or answers.

All the best.

Ans: Hi Arjun,
Have you heard of the POMODORO technique? Search it and try following it, it will definitely help you in your studies.

Also, always sit & study on a table chair it helps in keeping up the study temperament. And while studying keep all the gadgets away they are the biggest distractions.

All the best.

Ans: Dear

Study requires focused attention.

1. Make a daily schedule in terms of time slot and subjects and chapters that you would study in those slots. Keep time for break and rest.

2. Ensure you keep your mobile off during study period.

3. Restrict use of social media.

4. Make notes and keep revising them periodically.

While it's good to aim to answer all questions but at the same time keep some margin for not knowing some answers. It will take away unnecessary pressure that you would put on yourself.

All the best.

Ans: Here you Go: (1) Whenever you study at home, study for 45-minutes. Then take a break of 10-minutes when you can move away from your study table, walk, have some water & relax. If you continue studying beyond 45-minutes, your concentration power will go down, resulting to low output. Most students commit this mistake. (2) On daily basis (morning or evening whichever will be convenient to you), do yoga or meditation or physical exercises or play any games / sports for at least 30-45 minutes. This will further reduce your stress / distractions. (3) Study tough topics / tough subjects (applicable to you) early morning with your fresh mind. (4) Eat a lot of green vegetables / fruits which you can afford for & Avoid soft drinks (5) Every day night, before going to bed, revise whatever you have studied during the day. (6) Also, revise every week whatever you have covered till date (here your short-notes which you should prepare will be helpful). (7) Keep practising questions on topics which you have covered either offline or online (8) Give utmost importance to wrongly answered / difficult / complicated / tough questions and have a separate note-book specially for this for each subject (PCM) (8) You might be aware that JEE rank is allotted on the basis of highest score in Maths, followed by Physics & Chemistry. Practice more and more in Maths, till you reach Speed & Accuracy (9) By the end of 9th/10th/11th/12th standard (December-January), attempt fully syllabus online test series, evaluate and analyse your performance such as, (a) which topic / unit / concept you are weak which needs your revision and improvement as this will disturb you when you appear in actual JEE exam (b) abnormal time taken to attempt any question which you can come to know from Online Test Series which you should reduce (c) which questions you skipped and why? (10) Please AVOID studying under pressure that you should get admission only into IITs/ NITs. Never advisable. Any one can be successful, even if he / she studies in NON-IIT / NON-NIT Colleges also. (11) Have Plan B & Plan C for other Colleges Entrance Exams / Disciplines-Streams. (11) Avoid comparing yourself with other students. (12) Also, it is highly ideal to appear in / attempt minimum 5-Entrance Exams (for both Govt & Private Engineering Colleges). You will have a lot of options (easiest method) to choose the best and most suitable one, keeping in view a lot of factors such as, College | Location | Your Interest | Stream Preference | Placement Records | College Culture | Your Short & Long Term Goals | Pressure You Can Go Through | Your AIR & Job Market Condition when you apply for your BTech & Even after. I hope I have answered to your question with value additions. All the BEST for Your Bright Future.
