6. How are Rank Holders Different from a Regular Student?
The one common factor in all the students who have achieved success at JEE is that they are all hungry for
success!
Thequestionyoushouldbeaskingbeforepreparingforanyentranceexamis,howmuchdoyoureallywantit?
There is no such concept of accidental success at JEE. Not a single student can crack this exam without proper
planningandpreparation.
All rank holders have a yearly, monthly and even daily study plan and they remain focused to their plan, by hook
orbycrook!

Most of the students don't give much importance to planning for JEE because they get misguided by advices
like“Studytheclassportionsproperlyandyouwillscoregreat.”
As a result many students, who score very well in the board in fact, fail miserably at JEE. A Student must know
thatJEErequiresextraPREPARATION.
While planning, a student should know what to study, how to study, how to manage time, identify and

12. Importance of Test Series
Two Ways to Use Test Series:
ThereisadoubleedgedpurposebehindtheTestSeries.
The rstis,theTestSeriestohelpyoutoKNOWyourweaknessandIMPROVEuponit.
For this purpose the MockTests 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
youcananswerprecisely.
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
onemonthbeforetheJEEexam.
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

13. The Exam Day
Many students fail to perform on exam day, due to wrong strategies they adopt during the exam. Here is one
successfulapproachfrommanystudentswhohavecrackedIIT-JEE.
· Attemptthequestionsandsubjects rstthatyouknowwell.
· Don'tattemptMathematicsattheend.Itisthemosttimeconsuming.
· 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
endwithChemistry.
· When you get stuck somewhere, perhaps, in Mathematics, leave the question. Don't waste time over a
questionthatyoucannotattemptquickly.Moveon.
· Don't ever depend on the chance to go back to a question. It's often worth simply taking an extra
minutetoevaluatethequestionandlookingatwhetheryoucansolveit.
· 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
unsolvedorunattempted.
