Tips for JEE Main 2020 Exam

• Focus on regular practice

For conceptual clarity, it is important that you spend time practising questions. You must solve at least 20 relevant questions in a day. As NTA has introduced numerical type questions in JEE 2020, ensure that you practice the same to get ready for the latest exam pattern.

• Focus on your strengths

Do not start studying a new concept during the last moments. Now, it is not time to do so. Rather, you should focus on building your strong areas. Make a list of topics that you are confident about and work on them so that you do not skip any questions pertaining to those topics. 

• Exam – day strategy

Getting a good JEE score is all about identifying which questions to attempt first and which ones later. In the first go, attempt the questions you are certainly sure about. This may take around 1 hour. In the second round, attempt the questions in which you are sure. You can do so by striking out the wrong options. 

Now you can take a little bit of risk and identify the questions you think are worth taking a risk. Generally, these questions are multi-conceptual problems. 

To sum up …

Do not let low-confidence peep in. Keep your faith and give your best shot on the exam day. There is no guarantee of your performance on the exam day, do your best and move further. 

The last few days are important to boost your confidence while avoiding unnecessary stress. Check a concept, practice the JEE Main Mock test, prepare for it and move to the next one without leaving any doubts. I hope that is helpful to you regarding your JEE Prep. All the best for your exam!
