- Solving previous years’ question papers: The candidate gets an all-round view of the exam pattern and how questions are asked. It is very crucial to take part in the mock test because it will improve your ability to manage your time better.
- Reference Books: Although NCERT books provide the basic preparation, still candidates will have to refer to reference books like H.C. Verma for Physics, R.D. Sharma for Mathematics, and O.P. Tandon for Chemistry in order to go through the nitty-gritty of concepts and also get problems from every single angle.
- Time Management: Time management is one of the primary requirements for success in JEE Advanced. Since two three-hour papers are set on the same day, it means that one should maximize and utilize limited time while prepping as well as during the examination. The more time-bound tests, the faster and better the speed of solving questions.
- These concepts, formulas, and techniques will be fresh in your mind if you revise them regularly by marking specific slots of time and particular areas for concentration.
- Healthy and Stress-Free: While preparing, Physical and mental well-being is of utmost importance. You should get enough sleep, exercise, and relaxation. You need stress management focused and do well in an exam.
