Last Week before IIT JEE
You have only one aim now. Maximize your Rank at IIT JEE. All that you have to do in the next 15 days have to focus on how to score more! You don't have to study for the sake of loving Mathematics or Physics or Chemistry. This is not a time for bravery. It is a time for you to focus singly on scoring more! Stop studying the subject that you love. It is time to start studying subject that you can make maximum difference in marks and the simple answer is the subject that you have studied least!
- Read as many different things as possible. don't get stuck with a few things.
- The best problems to solve are Past IIT JEE questions. If you have not solved them yet, make sure you do that
- Make a list of topics that you are half confident and by the help of someone or the other, make sure that you complete the full syllabus of those topic. It could be a big differentiator if you are able to solve even 2-3 of those questions.
- This is not the time for cramming new material, but to make sure that what you know is perfect. There is infinitely too much to study so it does not matter if you don't know some of the syllabus. Just make sure that you know perfectly what you do.
- Review concepts. Look over your summary notes if you have made them. Just recall all the tricks that you must have used.
- Try to judge for yourself which topics you have prepared well. There will be topics that you simply don't and have never solved even a single problem on. Make sure not to even touch it! Unless you have a very good friend who volunteers to help you out with that topic in two/ three hours!
- Body Clock! Make sure your body clock is inline with the actual examination time. Sleep early on the last 2-3 days at least, so that you don't have issues sleeping in time on the previous night of IIT JEE. It will be disastrous if you could not sleep till 3 in the morning and would have to go to give the exam without at least 4 hours sleep. Ideally a 6-8 hour sleep is recommended!
- Take some time each day to relax. Have a good meal. Take a walk in the fresh air. Find time for exercise. The change of pace will refresh you and the physical activity will help you relax and sleep at night.
- Solve as many problems as you can. don't get study solving one problem for 2 hours. There is not that much time. It is better you solved 100 problems in an hour by just going over them one by one in your mind than solving 1 very tough problem in an hour. The time for doing all that is behind you.
