15 sections are to be completed in 10 days. Plan to complete them in 7 days. This will give you 3 days to devote to problems exclusively.

Other chapters

Binomial theorem


Matrices (some portion)

JEE 2010 September 2008 Study Plan

In September 2008 the following chapters are to be studied.

Chemistry

Surface chemistry
Non metals
Compounds of metals

Mathematics

5. Permutations and combinations
6. Binomial theorem
7. Matrices (some portion)

Physics

5. Newton’s laws of motion
6. Friction
15. Wave motion

One chapter from each subject is to be completed in 10 days. That means 3 chapters are studied in 10 days. In the month all 9 chapters are studied.

At least give one hour of study to each subject every day apart from attending junior college and coaching classes. If you are not going to coaching classes you can spare more time every day. Daily 10 hours have to be devoted to studies including your attendance in junior college and coaching classes.

Every day read around two sections in the chapter and related examples. Attempt two problems from the unsolved exercises. After you completed studying the theory portion attempt more problems say around 7 to 8. After the completely studying the chapter, keep attempting 2 problems from the same chapter for the next 10 days. This means you will be studying another chapter but you are solving some problems from the earlier chapter also. This will help you to know more and more about the chapter before attempting rather difficult questions. It will also give time to you digest the material in the chapter over a longer period of time. Any time you feel a problem is difficult, postpone it for few days. You may be able to get the idea to solve the problem.

JEE 2010 Aspirants - Preparation Strategy

According to my thinking,the decision to appear for JEE must be taken and preparation started right from the day, the X class examinations are over. The attitude must be to remember the materials learned in the X class. A revision of the X material after the examination will lay the firm foundation for JEE preparation.

May 2008 to December 2008 must be used to complete the entire syllabus of 11th class. Read the lessons in your XI class text and simultaneously read the material in JEE level texts that you buy. Approximately 3 lessons of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics (one each) must be completed every 10 days. That way you can read 9 lessons a month. In eight months you can complete 72 lessons. As the books are written you may not have 24 chapters in every subject. But the chapters are very big and you can practically treat them as two chapters.

That will give you time to revise you XI material during January-April 2008. Will give you good amount of time to concentrate on Board examianations and other subjects in the course.

I have seen the coaching institutes giving an IIT examination every alternate Sunday. They are giving it for six hours right in the first year itself. I recommend a three hour examination every two weeks with cumulative syllabus in the first year. Every alternate week, a one and half examination could be there in one lesson each of Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics. Prepare and write the examination conducted by your coaching institute enthusiastically. Your positive attitude right from the day one will help you immensely. Cooperate with your teachers. They know about the material and examination pattern a lot.

Even people who are taking postal coaching should follow this pattern. They should request their parents to organize the test for them every week. By requesting parents, one will put a monitor to himself to adhere to a time table.

How many one has to study: A general prescription is 10 hours a day. One can make an individual judgement with the overall constraint that you have to reach a level of having the ability to write an examination in the material that you have studied. You have to study 9 lessons every month. You divide the time in the ratio of 2:1 for CMP and other subjects.

Preparing a revision notes as you study is important because that will reduce the time spent by you in earlier lessons.

What are the recommended books?

I liked H C Verma for Physics

Dr. Jauhar, NCERT for Chemistry

For Mathematics, R D Sharma is good.
