How are Rank Holders Different from a Regular Student?

Hungry for more The one common factor in all the students who have achieved success at JEE is that they are all hungry for success! The question you should be asking before preparing for any entrance exam is, how much do you really want it?

No Miracle There is no such concept of accidental success at JEE. Not a single student can crack this exam without proper planning and preparation. All rank holders have a yearly, monthly and even daily study plan and they remain focused to their plan, by hook or by crook!

HAVE YOU CREATED YOUR STUDY PLAN YET? Stay Focused When normal students get distracted from studies and get involved in a lot of other worthless activities, Successful students utilize their time properly, by balancing their study and leisure time.

STAY FOCUSED ON YOUR GOAL! – AN ESSENTIAL QUALITY FOR SUCCESS! Test Series Rank holders use Mock Tests as a part of their study to improve and enhance their problem solving skills, whereas normal students attempt these tests just for the sake of trying and that too just before the real exam. In the following pages you will know how to use Test Series for your studies.

Planning & Preparation for JEE Success at JEE is no accident. It is the proven result of planning followed by diligent preparation.

It is not the plan that matters, it’s The PLANNING Planning Is Important A planned study strategy religiously followed for one or two years is the most important aspect to ace the most competitive exam of the World – JEE. Most of the students don't give much importance to planning for JEE because they get misguided by advices like “Study the class portions properly and you will score great.” As a result many students, who score very well in the board in fact, fail miserably at JEE. A Student must know that JEE requires extra PREPARATION. While planning, a student should know what to study, how to study, how to manage time, identify and prioritize the portions that require special attention.

Plan with an IITian Don't plan your study with fellow students; it is like one blind guiding another! Always seek expert advice for planning your preparation strategy for JEE. www.plancessiit.com provides you with your very own IITian GURU as a personal mentor to help in planning study, time management, by providing tips and strategies known only to the Rank Holders.

Importance of Test Series

Two Ways to Use Test Series: There is a double edged purpose behind the Test Series. The rst is, the Test Series to help you to KNOW your weakness and IMPROVE upon it. For this purpose the Mock Tests must be taken after every chapter or after learning every topic. It should not be taken lightly for the sake of knowing which questions are asked from a topic, but to know how many questions you can answer precisely. Analyze the questions which you are unable to answer, work on the concepts and improve your knowledge accordingly. The second is, the Mock Tests help you to improve, speed and accuracy. Remember the Test Series are be done one month before the JEE exam.

One Month Before JEE Exam The last month before the JEE exam is the most crucial period and it is inadvisable to spend time learning something new at this stage. Your focus must remain on attempting and succeeding in the mock exams as though they were the real exams. Without any distraction attend the mock exam at one stretch, on the day of the real exam

The Exam Day

Many students fail to perform on exam day, due to wrong strategies they adopt during the exam. Here is one successful approach from many students who have cracked IIT-JEE.

·

Attempt the questions and subjects rst that you know well.

·

Don't attempt Mathematics at the end. It is the most time consuming.

·

Chemistry is the least time-consuming, because you will easily remember and know the answers. It should not take you more than 45 minutes to complete the Chemistry section, so it is always better to end with Chemistry.

·

When you get stuck somewhere, perhaps, in Mathematics, leave the question. Don't waste time over a question that you cannot attempt quickly. Move on.

·

Don't ever depend on the chance to go back to a question. It's often worth simply taking an extra minute to evaluate the question and looking at whether you can solve it.

·

When you can't solve and decide to go on to the next question, then move on for good, and don't try to come back to it later. You'll only waste time. There is absolutely no time to come back to anything unsolved or unattempted.
