If students give the exam under pressure, they might end up attempting a lot of questions, and be marked for many more negative questions.
Today itself, a student came to me asking how to go about with the revision and I told him not to solve any questions. In my opinion, students should take up their NCERT books and start learning whatever they can. Probably try get a strong hold on their basics and revise theory topics. All the questions in JEE Main paper will require only basic knowledge, not even a single question is out of the box.
Because CBSE conducts JEE, and they usually prefer only NCERT books.
Even while studying it doesn’t matter, if you are able to complete 100% syllabus. Students should not start with new topics at this point in time. Even if they know only 60% of the syllabus, they should stick to it. Even if they attempt the questions based on that 60% of the syllabus, they will score good. There is one more benefit of this, they can completely avoid negative marking.
Also, it is better not to study anything a day before the exam. On the exam day, stay calm, and just revise two-three formulas which you think are important and give your best shot.
PaGaLGuY wishes all aspirants good luck for JEE Mains 2016.
