Cracking JEE and NEET exams is tough for many students in India, but they open doors to great colleges.

To succeed, students need to study hard, get help from experts, and have a strong support system at home. This means having a good place to study, a tutor or coaching if possible, and most importantly, supportive parents.

Parents’ encouragement can really help students do their best. They should praise their hard work and celebrate small wins, not just perfect scores. Parents should also create a calm environment at home where students can focus and talk about any problems they’re facing.

Helping students manage stress is key too. Parents can encourage healthy habits like breaks, exercise, and enough sleep. They can also introduce things to help students relax, like meditation or hobbies.

On top of emotional support, parents can also help with practical things. This could be finding good study materials, enrolling in coaching if needed, or helping create a study schedule that includes breaks and free time. Regularly talking about how things are going and making adjustments to the plan as needed is important too.

If a student faces setbacks, parents can help them see these as learning experiences. Focusing on how much effort a student puts in and the progress they make is better than just worrying about getting perfect scores. If a student is really struggling, parents can find a counsellor to help them deal with the stress.

IIT is a name that doesn’t need an introduction, but why is it so? Why does the name IIT pop up first when someone remotely mentions engineering. Why are Indian parents jealous when someone they know gets into IIT?

Here are 10 facts that state why you should choose IIT for Engineering As A Career!!

1. They are very competitive, so much so that less than 1% of the total applicant make it to IIT and less than that get the best stream or the stream of their choice, the selection process is such that it takes the cream of the cream when it comes to picking the best minds who get to study at this prestigious institution
2. Being a government institute they receive a lot of sanctions and grants for research and they are constantly on the verge of innovations and developments most of which are student aided and institution funded, it is one place which kick started the concept of bootstrap and VC funding for entrepreneurs
3. They are in compliance with the regulatory authority AICTE guidelines, thus always get a high ranking and preference when it comes to any grant vis-à-vis any other big, famous or private engineering college
4. The faculty is the best in the lot who are majorly alumni or industry vertical experts who have made a name for themselves and are the best guides for students who want to chalk out an affluent career path for themselves
5. IITs are not all about academics, campus life is fun and they have the best cultural and inter college festivals which make them a hub for 360 holistic learning and recreation
6. The reputation of an IITian precedes him/her, even in off campus recruitments, IITians get the first preference and the highest package be it any job profile that has been opened
7. The top recruiters come to IIT first to select the best lot and give the juiciest package, it is completely worth it when a student hustles for 4 years and sits in the final placements, the name of the college is of great help in getting them a superior lifestyle from the very beginning
8. IIT students get a preference in IIMs and other postgraduate programs, and are always awarded extra points for belonging to an IIT which is of great importance, as MBA colleges consider 1-2 points to disqualify or select a student
9. The network of IIT is so strong that even while switching a job profile, the name IIT is enough to get you from the waitlist to becoming a selected candidate
10. IIT offers a variety of bridge courses, live projects and internships from prestigious names, that happen alongside regular classes, so by the time a student graduates they have a diverse and very affluent resume or CV presented to the recruiter which increases the chances of selection by a great level

There used to be a time, if someone asked how to clear JEE Mains, you would always see seniors or teachers saying study 18 hours a day, lock yourself up in a room, forget socializing, this is a highway, and much more to speak of. Well, that was the case where most of the information was the word of mouth and IIT seemed like a far-fetched dream to think of. But does all that holds true in 2022?

Gone are the days when only rampant hours of studying, and excess of cramming made sense. Today to get started with your preparation for JEE Mains, it is important to follow a planned and smart approach. Rather than just going all the way with 500 questions in a day, as used to be the case earlier, plan it out. We at Trigyaa always encourage our students to follow a detailed time table which ensures maximum and holistic coverage of JEE Mains and Advanced syllabus and constant evaluation.

In today’s time, a smart division of Physics, Chemistry and Maths is important. The hard way would be to start with a maximum course in the initial days and then the student being fatigued closer to the D Day. But the smart approach for JEE Mains would be to start with Physics on one day, Maths on the next, and Chemistry on the 3rd day. It will involve taking baby steps, checking how much you can retain, how good is your conceptual understanding and how consistent can you be with covering portions.

Covering a huge chunk on one day and slacking off for the entire week is the enemy of your preparation for JEE Mains. While the smarter person would start slow and pick up one topic from physics, say rotational motion, and cover 4 topics in a day and try to solve easy level questions along the way and then go for trigonometric functions on the next day and equilibrium on the following day. What this will do is, it will ensure slow and steady preparation, and the breakup of different subjects, will have a multi-fold advantage.

It will ensure that the mind does not get fatigued with a variety of topics and subjects, and at the same time stimulate the brain to process information at a steady rate, and in less time. We have to make the mind stronger so that it attains the desired pace that is absolutely necessary for you to stay at par in class and at your coaching for JEE Mains. Every other day should be something different and stimulating for your mind to process more, but at the same time, the mind should not feel pressurised in any way in the initial days as this will set the ultimate momentum for the D Day.

Keep in mind it is not a battle that can be won by following the hard route in less time, but a war that needs a smart, sustainable and holistic approach.

The post JEE Mains: The Hard Way or the Smart Way first appeared on Trigya.

From a theoretical standpoint, three of the pillars of JEE Mains and Advanced, namely Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, have a comparable weightage, but in reality, how to attempt the papers to reap the greatest rewards is a different story.

We at Trigyaa, consider Modern Physics to be the key family member of Physics family in both the papers, one should start with Physics, because it has both numerical and theoretical questions. It challenges the mind but at the same time relaxes it with theoretical questions after every numerical.

On the other hand, mathematics needs the most active mind, so mathematics should not be attempted in one go. For the simple fact that if you find yourself stuck on a question, it breaks the flow and the morale for the entire JEE Mains paper. Thus, switching back and forth between Chemistry and Mathematics will not only give your mind a break, but it will also keep you in the solving mode, so even if you don’t get 1 mathematics question, you will get 5 chemistry questions, which isn’t a bad bargain.

While preparing, Mathematics should be practiced every day. Chemistry comes in 3 parts, focus should be first to deal with physical chemistry, then move towards organic chemistry as these 2 are conceptual while inorganic is majorly theoretical. Results and stats show that in chemistry, physical and organic take the major chunk, so having your head wrapped around them will make sure that 80% of the war is in your favour.

Inorganic should be handled when the mind is not able to take more and it can just memorise not conceptualize, this will make sure that slowly inorganic simmers in.

In physics, electrostats is a very important topic from class 12th perspective, while rotational motion, solids and fluid mechanics will give the most questions, particularly in JEE Advanced from class 11th perspective. Magnetism, Force, Work, Power, and Energy will all appear as wildcard entries in the JEE Mains paper, so make sure you know these concepts so that a large portion of the paper appears achievable, or in other words, like a cakewalk to you rather than a source of anxiety. so, this is how to attempt the papers to reap the greatest rewards!

Mathematics will be tricky, so make sure you keep practicing and solving mock papers. Complex numbers, factorials, and AOD will test your conceptual skills. The intellectual stimulation will come in the form of vectors, permutation and combination, probability, and other topics. Integration and differentiation might oscillate but this is what will test if you have the potential to be a great and competent engineer in IIT, so make sure you do not take these topics lightly.

Overall, coverage of all chapters is important, but make sure you study the previous year’s patterns, as it will give an idea as to which are the HOTS (high order thinking skills) questions and are the ones that should not be taken lightly come what may.

Needless to say that comprehensive coverage of the whole course for both JEE Mains and Advanced is a sure shot way to kick start your preparation for JEE, and the subject, Chemistry, is no different. Physical, Organic, and Inorganic Chemistry are the three branches of chemistry that are equally important in terms of exam scoring.

However, in this particular segment we will try and distinguish organic and inorganic chemistry from a preparation and the weightage standpoint for the JEE Mains and Advanced paper. The approaches for both the branches will be different and it is the state of mind that will dictate which one to go for first, focus on a higher level and give importance to from a total examination focal point.

Speaking of organic chemistry it is more conceptual in nature as it has a lot of reactions, reagents, and mechanisms to depict and remember. From a class 11th and 12th point of view, organic chemistry is scoring, as showing the entire flow of chemical reactions helps in memorizing and tests the presentation skills of the students majorly. When we see from JEE point of view, organic is of higher volume not weightage, as from previous year experience, we can say that Physical and Inorganic combined have more questions in both JEE Mains and Advanced paper than Organic alone. But organic is higher in mental volume as it will require you to have all your major concepts related to mechanisms and reactions on your fingertips, as the questions seen in the paper will be of a higher order than seen in Class 12th board examinations.

Speaking of inorganic chemistry, it is more theoretical and a little conceptual, as we can see that one needs to memorize P block elements, D block elements, their properties, and the major decision-maker, exceptions. Inorganic chemistry from a distant level, is very contradictory, as each element shows exceptions, and there is no easier way than to remember all of these. These types of questions can cause a vast difference in the overall JEE Mains and Advanced cut off, and your rank too, if the exception or the right fact does not click at the time of attempting the paper.

To conclude, if you are more of a conceptual person and seek flows and logic, then organic chemistry is your saviour, you will be able to understand, relate and crack, and it will also mean that your level of comprehension of physical chemistry will also be improved. So you can keep a major chunk of your focus on organic and physical chemistry, after winning that battle, see the best you can make out of inorganic chemistry. However, if you like more of theory, then keep a balance of inorganic and physical chemistry as those 2 combined weigh more than organic chemistry. Emphasize majorly on the theoretical part and factual concepts of organic chemistry, try to master them in the 1st go. Once you can crack this, see how much can you make of the conceptual part of organic Chemistry? Both are important, but save the strengths first, then work on the weaknesses.
