The only way to excel in the Mathematics section of JEE main exam is possibly by practicing it. With less than two weeks in hand and over three subjects to be revised, it is not viable to venture into unknown topics. Though it is necessary to revise all but it is more important to lay emphasis on what previous year’s analysis has to say.
PaGaLGuY spoke to Prof. Alok Jha of Vidyamandir Coaching, New Delhi, who shared his analysis of Mathematics section of JEE main in order to help JEE aspirants.
If we look at the previous year’s question papers, we will see that there are certain topics which have been repeated several times. This derives us to the most important topic of Maths section in JEE Main, that is Co-ordinate Geometry. There have been 50 question on this topic over the past 8 years, making it the most important topic in the maths section. Circle and conic sections are very important sub topics in co-ordinate geometry.
Limits, Continuity and Differentiability, 28 questions have been asked from this section over the past 8 years.
Integral Calculus, 27 questions have been asked over the years of which 3 questions were asked in JEE main 2015.
