Beginning from SCRATCH for beginners only.

Hello people😊

This blog is specifically targeted to the beginners, the ones who have just started with 11th or are yet to be. 

I personally believe it's too early to start preparing for JEE before 11th but you can if you want to. No issues with that. 

So moving on to our topic of today: 

See when you are starting with a new course, things interest you for a couple of weeks. They are quite easy to understand and somewhere roams around your previous knowledge but gradually the level paces up. Things start becoming tougher day by day. Hence you need to start adjusting from day 1 itself. Don't procrastinate things in beginning assuming they are easy and so you can complete your self study afterwards. 

Now you have 6hrs per day exclusively for self study. When I say self study, it absolutely means self study. It is the time excluding your school or coaching hours. Additionally if you are a slow learner you need to sacrifice 2 more hours, therefore 8 hours in total. Moreover on an average you might be having classes for like 3 days in a week, so again this way you get total of 10 hours for those 4 days. So summing up you have 6hrs for 3 days and 10 hours for remaining 4. 

Now you have to make short notes, solve examples/ exercises/ DPP sheets/ PYQs and a lot of other stuff. Main problem is the time management right? First thing I'll suggest is to get admission in a dummy school provided that you are attending some coaching classes. Managing school & coaching at the same time is really hectic and you often end up confused and finds it difficult to cope up with everything.  

Second very important thing to note is that you have to revise everything that is taught in class that day itself to ensure that you have understood everything from that topic. Seek help from your teachers in case you are stuck. Don't ever procrastinate this process. And don't feel shy in asking help from your teachers. If you ask, you learn. Teachers are for your good. Use this resource effectively. 

Soon after completing a chapter/ topic move on to the NCERT and the examples. Bonus Tip 1 Only and only after solving examples, move on to DPPs/ PYQs/ Practice questions. Dedicate a good amount of time to "Solved examples" too. They are really important and helpful. Reading NCERT is also must. You can skip reading Maths NCERT. You can also refer one book apart from your coaching material but only and only if you have completed your coaching material. 

Note: While revising, write all the formulas on a sticky note and stick them in your study room. 

Target both JEE Mains & Advanced initially. But gradually your level of preparation and dedication will choose whether you should continue to target Advanced or just focus on the Mains. .

I don't know what will happen after 12th but I know for sure you will enjoy the 11th & 12th preparation time for JEE (online classes might not be that interesting but offline preparation is)

After a month you can start making short notes for chapters taught a month ago. 

Start using the below mentioned tricks in beginning only otherwise burden will just pile up. 

 Chocolate problem trick, 

Don't try to memorize formula trick, 

Write & Stick trick

Take record of your performance. If your performance is  good for a month, then you can go for Inorganic Chemistry NCERT. When students read this part for the first time, the general notion they have is Inorganic = everything exception. But it is completely logical and every exception has some trend. Starting early with this part will earn you some competitive advantage. 

Note: Don't spoil your current position running behind Inorganic. 

Lastly, take care of your physical and mental health. Thats's important too. Don't stress, be consistent and be confident. These are the master keys to open the gate of success.
