an you crack JEE MAIN and JEE ADVANCED if you start now?
Since
the time JEE MAIN and JEE ADVANCED replaced AIEEE and IITJEE, the
preparation for the race to IITs took a slightly different turn. Board
exams which were sort of neglected by many aspirants, suddenly assumed
much more significance. It is obvious that the students who aspire to be
future IITIANs, must be preparing hard.
But there are others who might be thinking that they have missed the bus. At the time this article is being penned It is less than a year for the next JEE and perhaps they have not been able to start serious preparations. This article is intended for such students.
The million dollar question is “Can it still be cracked?” The answer is “YES” and that too with a good enough rank. Follow what is supplied below and you might crack the next JEEMAIN and JEE ADVANCED.

- JEE MAIN JEE ADVANCED 2015 and 2016- Four reasons why competition will be entirely different
This article is about JEE MAIN and JEE ADVANCED 2015 and 2016. It tells you why the competition for these exams will be in an entirely different level in these years.
HIT IITJEE straight if you want to succeed
The
very first step is to get serious about the exam. The final result is a
matter of comparative ranking and given how well the long term planners
have been preparing, one should understand that only a concentrated,
industrious and planned study will yield the desired result.
I have been studying the IIT JEE and AIEEE question paper patterns for quite some time now. The most salient feature of the question papers I have observed is an abundance of numerical problems. In all the three subjects, Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, a candidate is most likely to scale the cut-off if he/she is adept at solving numerical problems.
Moreover, speed is another determining factor in such examinations. Thinking speed is acquired by continuous practice. Practising tough problems compels you to think again and again along similar lines. Such thinking improves with regular practice of numerical problems and by the time you go for the actual exam, you should have developed a knack for recognizing the type of problem at once, just by looking at it.

- High competition exams and the faith factor
This article emphasizes the importance of the faith factor for success in highly competitive exams. Coaching classes must conduct confidence building measures and motivational classes to achieve that.
Coaching courses and best books
Question
naturally arises how to get such huge supply of cryptic problems and
their solutions. The answer is either (a) A good coaching course or (b)
The best books on all the three subjects.
Good IITJEE coaching courses supply topic wise modules of questions and their solutions. They also set pre-planned time limits for completion of such modules well before the examination. So if you join such a course and follow the course religiously then it will prove highly beneficial. But make sure not to depend solely on the course. Since thousands of students will be following the same course and a lot of them will be quite serious too, you will have to brainstorm as to what factors will keep you ahead in the race.
Furthermore, if you cannot afford to or are not willing to join such a course, what should you do? How to get and solve the multitude of difficult questions that will make you immune to any difficulty level of question papers? How to judge your own performance over a set of difficult questions? How to match the level of those students who are already appearing mock tests in which they keep on upgrading their all-India ranking announced by such courses in their all-India weekly or fortnightly tests?
There are ways to achieve that if you have enough will power and if you are ready to give what it takes. As told earlier, the technique of cracking IITJEE in whatever time is left, consists in hitting it straight. We shall expand a small idea in detail. The idea is as simple as, “Practise the most relevant numerical problems daily and that will see you get through the exam.” Now, we have to get those questions and their solutions as well as the related theoretical portions in brief so as to be able to revise the formulae and concepts periodically.
If one is not joining a coaching course then he/she must buy the best books which are as follows:
Mathematics:
1. First you must be able to solve problems from NCERT class XI and class XII books.
2. For best concepts you can purchase ‘IIT Mathematics’ by M.L.Khanna.
3. For the most abundant supply of difficult question topic-wise and their solutions, you may buy ‘New Pattern IITJEE Mathematics’ of Arihant Publications by Dr. S.K.Goyal.
4. For Trigonometry and Coordinate Geometry the books by S.L.Loney are useful.
5. Tata Mcgraw Hills (TMH) books
Physics:
1. Concepts of Physics, Vol.-I, by H.C.Verma
2. Concepts of Physics, Vol.-II, by H.C.Verma
3. Problems in Physics by I.E.Irodov
4. Fundamentals of Physics, by Halliday, Resnik and Walker.
5. Physics by D.C.Pandey, Arihant Publications
Chemistry:
1. NCERT Chemistry text books of class XI and class XII.
2. Organic Chemistry by Morrison and Boyd.
3. For numerical problems-P.Bahadur
4. Inorganic Chemistry by J.D.Lee
5. Physical Chemistry by R.C.Mukherjee and also by P.Bahadur.
6. Organic, Physical and Inorganic Chemistry books by O.P.Tandon.

- He Prepared for 10+2 Board Exams for 2 Months, Scored 90%
The 10 pronged strategy to crack IITJEE
1. Solve at least 40-80 numerical problems daily starting from day one. This is inclusive of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics.
2. Set time limits for a set of questions and see to it that the time-score performance improves.
3. Also find time to analyze the formulae and the theoretical concepts involved. Always think and discuss with like minded mates, (a) what are the points at which you or they are making the mistakes, and (b) what are the factors which slow you down, that is, kill time.
4. When you are solving questions pertaining to a particular topic, keep close watch on previous years’ question papers, say, of last 10-15 years. This is to be carried out only when your cut-out job for the day is done. The pattern changes are to be given special importance.
5. Always achieve your daily target. You have to outdo more and more candidates on a daily basis. Remember there may be, and surely are, many candidates solving 100 problems a day or may be 150-200. When you are about to call it a day, prepare your next day’s detailed schedule.
6. Try to develop a stream-line thought process, which is of great help in solving numerical problems quickly. This kind of thinking can be developed by practising gradual logical progression. It means building up of your solution step by step with contextual thinking and not allowing and discarding stray reasoning.
7. Till the time the exam ends, never ever, for any reason whatsoever, think that the fight has ended. This point is being emphasized since many candidates leave the battle halfway thinking their effort will not cut ice and they will be better prepared next time. Remember even if you are not fully prepared, trying hard will at least make you have a feel of the difficulty barrier and who knows you might be as up in the list as will secure you an entry into the golden gates. Simply said, peaking at the right time may see you through the test. 3 Gs namely, gumption, grit and guts held till the last moment may produce surprising results.
8. Target the difficult parts of the syllabus first and prepare them along with concise, crisp, easy-to-look up notes. Such notes will allow shading extra pressure on the eve of the examination. So the strategy consists in moving to easier parts of the course as the exam nears. Alongside, you would be revising your notes for difficult parts.
9. You will also have to develop a subject-wise strategy. Are you comparatively stronger in Chemistry than Mathematics or Physics ? Then probably you will have to allot more time to the later two. The subject-wise strategy formulated in detail may turn into chapter-wise or topic-wise strategy, meaning that more time is allotted to tougher topics. Moreover fine tune your plan so as to allot more time to the topics which are common to board exams as well as IITJEE during January and February. It may be pre-assumed that the whole of February and more than half of March will have to be devoted to the preparation of and appearing in the board examination.
10. Last but not the least will be a mention of the changes that have been announced in the form of JEE MAIN and JEE ADVANCED. Under prevailing conditions, the common parts of the syllabus present in both exams, the board exam and JEE MAIN & JEE ADVANCED assume great significance since qualification for JEE ADVANCED now requires securing a position in top 20 percentile of students in a particular board.Of course almost the entire syllabus of the board exam is included in JEE MAIN and JEE ADVANCED syllabus. But previous question papers may be referred for understanding as to which parts of the syllabus are more important.This part is the most valuable one. But don’t leave aside anything. Knowledge earned never goes in vain.
