In this article, we will discuss what you can expect after JEE Session 1 results that can give you success in JEE Mains Session 2.

Analysis of JEE Main Session 1 Result

JEE is considered one of the toughest exams in the country for admission to the top engineering colleges. The National Test Agency (NTA) conducts the exam in two sessions followed by JEE Advanced. Now you have appeared for the first session the following conditions will be in front of you:

1. Your JEE Mains marks are good in 1st attempt

If you score more than 98 percentile in the exam, you are doing well. Get ready for the session 2 exam and prepare for the JEE Advanced too. The best score among the two sessions will be considered for the JEE Advanced exam. Practise sample test papers online or offline, focus on the analytical problems for advanced problems, use coaching study modules, and seek guidance for any doubt clarification.

2. You didn’t perform well in your JEE Main 1st attempt

If you did not get a good score on the 1st attempt, don’t get disheartened as one more chance is left to prove yourself. Identify the mistakes in your previous attempt and rectify them with the help of experts. Work on the weak areas, match up speed and accuracy with more practice and focus on conceptual understanding and their application. With improved preparation, you can elevate your JEE score and qualify for the JEE Advanced.

Strategies for JEE Session 2 Preparation

Here are some expert-proven strategies that can help you prepare well for the exam:

1.  Strengthening Weak Areas

Identify your weak areas in the Session 1 exam by examining the exam paper and its solution. Work on these weak sections and convert them into strengths for scoring more. Set a goal before practising and try to achieve it by the end of the day. Do not hesitate to seek expert guidance as it is worthwhile. 

By the analysis of the session 1 paper and previous paper it is found that most of the exam questions are framed along the application of the concepts in the form of numericals in Physics and Mathematics therefore practising the numerical problems with their derivation is of utmost importance for these two subjects. Whereas in chemistry you should focus on the  NCERT books for classes 11 and 12 to get an in-depth understanding of the fundamentals.

2.  Refining Time Management

After covering the entire syllabus the next crucial thing you should look forward to is to have an effective time management strategy. Speed and accuracy are key to success in the JEE Main exam paper. Solving the previous year’s question papers and test series in the simulated exam environment can help you score well with reduced exam anxiety. 

3. Enhancing Exam Strategy

Use expert-proven strategy to solve the questions, multiple choice problems and numericals. Revise the syllabus several times to memorise the formulas, equations, derivations, and theorems. Make use of the short notes or flow diagrams for easy and effective revision. Take short breaks in between the long study time for refreshment and relaxation. Note down even a small doubt and make it clear with the help of an expert. 

4. Mental and Physical Preparation

JEE Main preparation is stressful therefore you should focus on the overall improvement of the mental and physical state of mind. Practising mind relaxation exercises regularly along with meditation can relax your mind and give you inner peace and strength to focus on the goal. Take a break whenever you feel overburdened.
