10 Days Strategy

The JEE Mains 10-days strategy we are putting forth is focused on the most important topics for JEE Mains that can help you score from 130-150 marks(even more if your accuracy is exceptional). These are the topics that are a sure shot in the exam and can be covered easily in 10-days. So, if you are planning to crack JEE Mains 2021 in 10 days, then this can be an elixir plan for you.

• Work on your accuracy: A single topic covered with good accuracy is better than covering many topics with poor accuracy. In your 10-days strategy focus on building a high accuracy for selected important topics. In the exam, the quality of revision pays more than quantity.
• Stick To Smart Work: Don’t waste your precious last time revision days in referring books, highlighting points in notes, searching websites for random tricks(knowledge and concepts are the only tricks), or searching astrologers to do some miraculous pooja for you(save something for post-exam). Focus on smart work and make quick last-time notes of the most important topics shared by us. Utilize every second in adding more to your final score by mastering the most expected topics.
• Cramming Time: Yes, you read that right! Now is the perfect time to unleash the hidden parrot in you. Cram as much of formulas, reactions, results, dimensions, or anything that you need to keep handy in your mind to save extra seconds in exams. It’s good that you can deduce formulas, but the timer on the screen won’t wait for you.
• Practice Mock Tests: Do at least one mock test daily to analyze your daily progress.
• Practice questions from previous years: Practice questions from previous years’ question papers based on the list of important topics.
• Make short notes: Make short handy notes that you can carry anywhere for a quick glance.
