Do’s and Don’ts of the Joint Entrance Exam for Admission in IITs and NITs

/in , , , , /by

Joint Entrance Exam (JEE) is the aim of lakhs of students and has a high level of importance attached to it for engineering aspirants. Joint Entrance Exam is conducted in two stages according to the latest pattern, and both these stages are very different from each other. These stages are namely JEE Main and JEE Advanced.

Due to the nature of this examination, there are several tips, tricks, and most importantly, do’s and don’ts for this exam. The aspirants must know these for a better overall performance and the entire preparation span too, in general. Here are all the do’s and don’ts that you need to know for the Joint Entrance Exam.

Do’s for the Joint Entrance Examination :

Aspirants have to keep a lot of things in their mind for a better performance in the Joint Entrance Examination. Here is a comprehensive list of all that you should be doing for this exam.

  • Make the correct choices: When you are starting your preparation, there are a number of things to decide. You need to understand yourself and judge if you wish to join a coaching or not. Once that is done you would be looking for the perfect coaching for yourself. Apart from this choice, you would also have to choose the books you want to follow, the kind of school you wish to go to, and also the frequency with which you would be attending school. These are some of the most important initial decisions that only you can make. Others can guide you through these choices, but the final choice should be yours so that you don’t have anyone to blame at the end. JEE is not going to give you many chances, thus, making the perfect choices at the correct time is important.
  • Form a good schedule for yourself: Make a schedule that you can actually follow without spoiling your health. The schedule shouldn’t be too draining and should contain small targets which you can extend on completion. Also, you must stay determined throughout to stick to your schedule. You cannot afford to be lazy.
  • Focus on concepts and problem-solving: You shouldn’t try rote learning for everything. Even for topics of inorganic, there would be logic involved in some or the other way. The Joint Entrance Examination tests your conceptual knowledge and logics in different ways. To perform well knowing concept application is as important as knowing the concept. Thus, a lot of practice is needed for faring well in this examination.
  • Complete your syllabus timely and form a revision strategy: Completing your syllabus on time is important since once that is done you will be able to start revising things. Also, after syllabus completion giving full-length mock tests will be possible. Revision should enable you to practice sufficient questions along with proper theory revision. During the last phase revision of the pure theory based portions can fetch you easy marks in the examination as questions based on such topics won’t require much time. Try solving questions in a time-bound manner to increase your speed.
  • Do lots of mock papers and practice past years’ papers: Doing past years’ papers of JEE Main and JEE Advanced will help you in understanding the paper pattern and will acquaint you with the strategy which is best for you to follow during the actual exam. A sudden change or formation of strategy on the final day might make you panic.
  • Stay confident and healthy throughout: Health is a very important factor for performing well. You should avoid unhealthy or unhygienic food and at the same time take proper food without skipping any meals. Form a schedule which doesn’t take away your sleeping or eating hours. Drink lots of water to stay hydrated as this will help you in maintaining focus.

The Joint Entrance Exam is definitely not the easiest exam but remember that it is achievable. Keep a positive attitude and work in an organized way towards your goal. Keep all these above points in your mind at all times and pass the exam with flying colors.

Don’ts for the Joint Entrance Exam :

 

  • Don’t run for a lot of books and prefer quality: This point is a major don’t for the Joint Entrance Exam. Aspirants start doing every other book that they hear about and end up missing out the things that they should have done. One or two books should be followed per subject and should be done entirely rather than doing bits from a lot of books.
  • Don’t create backlogs or let topics pile up: Keep a day per week for revision and completion of backlogs. Don’t start skipping chapters for the sake of catching up with your coaching or school syllabus. You should give proper time to every topic so there is no last minute hassle or skipping of any important topics.
  • Don’t set unrealistic targets or over-strain yourself: Setting short term goals and then expanding your work will help you in gaining confidence and will boost your speed too. It will motivate you to cover more portions. If you set an extremely tiring schedule for yourself you would not grasp much and would not enjoy studying too. This could prove to be harmful in the long run. Thus, don’t over-strain yourself by over loading and maintain a constant speed of work throughout.
  • Don’t skip tests: Many students are afraid of giving tests as it brings down their confidence. There can be many reasons for giving a lesser number of tests. You must fight all those. If your coaching doesn’t give you sufficient papers try online mock tests or join a test series. Giving tests on a regular basis is of utmost importance. Even if half of your coaching students are skipping some test due to any reason you must not skip it.
  • Don’t use calculators while preparing: Use of calculator is prohibited in JEE. However, a number of school boards allow it and hence students get into the habit of using it. The calculations of school level might be very lengthy but JEE always requires you to solve calculations using some or the other tricks which come only through practice. Also, the speed required for solving long calculations mentally or physically requires practice and is much needed for JEE. Thus, try avoiding the usage of the calculator so that you can develop the correct speed and skills to solve any long calculation too without a calculator.
  • Don’t compare yourself with others or demotivate yourself: If you keep on comparing yourself with others you would never be able to gain confidence. Always try improving your scores and fight with yourself only. This principle will always motivate you to be better than yourself. Also keep away from any friend or acquaintances that lower your confidence.

The above points are the general ones to be followed. However, there will be a lot more points depending upon the way you study. Form your schedule according to yourself and not according to what someone suggests. Add more do’s and don’ts to the above list to suit your schedule completely.

Also, since the exam takes place in two steps, if your JEE Main does not go that well, you should not give up and prepare harder to perform better in JEE Advanced. Don’t accept defeat with a single exam and keep preparing and working till the very last exam. Don’t create pressure on yourself and give all the exams confidently. Keep in mind that it won’t be the end and you can do better the next time.

JEE MAIN 2019: APRIL APPLICATION FORMS FROM FEBRUARY 8 – HOW TO DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT YOU SHOULD APPEAR AGAIN

/in , , , /by

NTA would be opening the online application for JEE Main 2019 – II or April Examination on February 8, 2019. Here is all you need to know before deciding whether or not to re-appear. Updates on jeemain.nic.in

National Testing Agency, NTA has released the JEE Main 2019 Jan Scores in record time. As many as 8.7 lakh students had appeared for the JEE Main 2019 January examination. NTA will conduct the JEE Main 2019 April examination next. Online application forms for JEE Main 2019 April examination will commence on jeemain.nic.in from February 8, 2019. Important dates are provided below. However, a question that is bothering students now is whether or not to appear for the JEE Main 2019 April examination.

JEE Main 2019 II April Exam – Important Dates :
  • Start of Online Application – February 8, 2019
  • Last day to apply online on jeemain.nic.in – March 7, 2019
  • JEE Main 2019 II Admit Card Download – March 18, 2019
  • Date of Examination: April 6 to April 20, 2019
  • JEE Main II Result and JEE Main 2019 Ranks – April 30, 2019

While it may appear that there is no flip side to appearing for the April examination again for students who are placed in the 90 percentile and above bracket, that may not be the real case. Students have to carefully examine their score and assess their performance. Remember that the candidates would qualify for the JEE Advanced 2019 based on their JEE Main 2019 Rank. A few things to consider before you decide.

  • The better of the two scores – JEE Main 2019 January or JEE Main 2019 April would be considered should a student choose to appear in both examination.
  • JEE Main 2019 Rank would be considered based on the total NTA score. In case there is a tie, the higher JEE Main Rank would be given to
    1. Students who score higher score in Mathematics
    2. Students who score higher in Physics
    3. Students who score higher in Chemistry
    4. Age (Elder student gets precedence)
  • In case two candidates tally in all the above parameters, the same JEE Main 2019 rank would be allotted to the students.

To decide hence, it would be prudent to assess the raw score from the answer keys that you have scored in the examination and assess if you can improve that score. JEE Main 2019 April or second attempt applications would open next month. Experts suggest that the students who have scored a raw score of about 250 and above and are ranking above 85 percentile may not worry about appearing for the exam in April.

HOW TO OVERCOME LAZINESS DURING JEE PREPARATION ?

/in , , , , /by

Laziness is a habit rather than a mental health issue. It may reflect a lack of self-esteem, a lack of positive recognition by others, a lack of discipline stemming from low self-confidence, or a lack of interest in the activity or belief in its efficacy.

It is easy to get wrapped up in the daily grind and avoid the tasks that require students immediate attention. Are you also one of them who often feel lazy? Have you ever experienced laziness holding you back from accomplishing your goals? We would all be lying if we said we have never spent our day doing nothing. Sometimes, all students  enjoy the state of laziness and whiling away our time and wait until the last minute to study for a test or work on a project. It is to be noted that laziness is a real grade killer and students should learn to encounter the same.

Read further and find out ways to overcome laziness :

What you need is focused mind 

It is easy to feel distracted or not feel motivated enough to do the task. Often when we have to start with something, we feel lazy. In order to overcome that feeling of laziness, it is important to focus your mind on the task. If you have a problem focusing or concentrating, you can practice meditation etc which will help your mind stay active and focused.

 Switch between tasks

Another way to combat laziness is by switching between the tasks. Let’s say, you start with Physics and practice a few numerical questions. However, after a point of time, you don’t feel like solving more questions. It might be due to boredom or perhaps you are unable to solve them correctly. In such a situation, it is easy to feel less motivated. As a result, laziness sinks in. To avoid that, switch Physics with Chemistry. Switching between subjects or tasks keeps the mind active and helps in better retention.

Take a power break

A nap or a coffee break can prove to be your power break whenever you feel lazy. Taking a small break not only rejuvenates you but also energizes your mind to study with stronger conviction. This will also relax you and keep stress at bay. A power break is one of the most effective ways to encounter laziness and improve concentration.

Remove all obstacles

In the techno-savvy world we live in, it is easy for a human mind to get distracted. With PSP games, smart phones and Netflix so handy, students attention tends to get diverted from his/her goal. As a result, studying takes a back seat as they feel lazy to learn in contrast to their active state while playing. It is thus advisable to switch off the phones, put all games to a corner and unplug unnecessary tech devices for a while.

Surround yourself with motivated people

It cannot be denied that when you spend time with people who are motivated and serious about their goals in life, you also tend to think like them. It influences you and your life and you are able to focus more. On the contrary, hanging out with lazy people changes your way of thinking and you adapt to their way of life, thereby turning into lethargic fellows.

6. Adopt engaging techniques

It is important to immerse yourself completely in the task to be able to accomplish it successfully. Engaging techniques such as visual learning, using mind maps, listening to recorded lectures or watching youtube videos on your lesson can work in your favor. All this not only keeps your mind engaged but also helps in improved learning and better retention.

Strictly follow a schedule

Stop feeling crippled because of the feeling of laziness. One of the effective ways to combat laziness is to make a schedule and adhere to it. This will not only help you strike a balance between leisure and work but will also accomplish tasks on time and keep procrastination at bay. This will considerably remove the feeling of laziness as you’ll know you have to meet your targets.

Shake it up

Exercise is a must for a healthy body and mind. Always, always, indulge in some exercise to keep off that feeling of laziness. Exercise pumps up your muscles and refreshes your mind, leaving it active for hours. An active mind absorbs better and retains the information for long. So shake it up a little and start working out.
