[ad_1]

– Written by Piyush Maheshwari

NTA JEE Main 2021: JEE Main is being conducted in multiple sessions from February to May this year for admissions in the next academic session in 2021. The session 1 is scheduled on February 23, 24, 25 and 26.

Read | JEE Main 2021: Things you need to do when you enter exam hall

This exam provides the basis for admissions to engineering and architecture programmes for over 25,000 students every year.

Here are 10 mistakes candidates should avoid during the exam

1. Read instructions properly: One must read each instruction carefully to ensure no important information is missed.

2. Selection of section: It is ideal to prioritise chemistry before moving on to the others. This section generally consumes the least amount of time which makes it easier to finish first.

3. Time distribution to each section: It is essential to distribute your time section-wise. This makes it smoother to solve your paper on time. Make sure that you are not spending more time than required for any section. It is advised to spend 40 minutes on chemistry, 60 minutes on math and 80 minutes on physics respectively.

4. Time distribution for each question: Not spending too much time on a single question is equally important. Devoting more time to a challenging question will leave one with lesser time for other simpler questions. It is ideal to spend no more than three minutes for each question.

5. Read all questions: Reading every question carefully is crucial as it enables one to understand it properly. Candidates can avoid errors if they read the questions thoroughly.

6. Read the options carefully: It is equally crucial to read all four options carefully. Do not rush while going through them. Giving adequate time to read them helps one understand and deduce better. Rushing can often make aspirants miss out on the correct answer.

7. Stay calm: Staying calm is essential for everything one does in life, more so in an examination. It can help aspirants achieve what they are capable of. Whenever you find time during the examination, try to take a couple of long breaths as it puts the mind at ease.

8. Believe yourself: One can achieve anything if they believe in themselves. Motivation is a key factor for everything one does in their life. It is essential to believe in yourself for this or any other exam.

9. Do not make new concepts instantly: Leave the concepts which are new for the end. It is a good practice to solve everything you know first before moving on to new concepts.

10.Do not guess, be sure: It is not advised to choose answers which are based on guesswork. Candidates should ideally leave the questions they are not sure about and only answer those they feel confident about.

Boost your productivity for JEE Main 2021 preparations with Pomodoro technique

[ad_1]

Read More/Less


– Written by Suresh Mahawar

Preparation for an examination can be stressful when you have a lot to cover in very little time. While some of us have a proper study plan, most students study less and stress more about the exam outcome. With JEE Main around the corner, it is imperative to maintain a schedule while studying or covering a particular syllabus.

So, avoid stressing and use the formula of Pomodoro to plan your JEE Main study hours. The Italian word for tomato, Pomodoro, is one technique that will help you plan your strenuous study schedules not only effectively but also efficiently. This technique was invented by Francesco Cirillo three decades ago when he was a university student in Italy. He used a tomato-shaped timer to measure his 25-minute sessions on any task.

He took a break for five minutes after each session — which he believed is the perfect length of time to help you not procrastinate, be productive, create urgency and help stay focused on any task. This technique is widely used by various people all over the world. Francesco worked at the forefront of software firms and guided umpteen developers and engineers.

His core focus was to improve efficiency and produce better outcomes in lesser time. This technique can be useful in studying for long hours without creating mental fatigue. Follow the four-step process to manage your study hours better and learn faster: 1. Choose ‘that’ chapter: Yes, choose that long-pending chapter and then divide it into smaller topics. So, now your goal to complete a 52-page lesson has shifted to a 5-page section. Make small goals and focus on achieving them. Also, make sure to get all the necessary things like a notepad, pen, water-bottle, and anything else you need before you start studying.

2. Set the timer: The human mind wanders off easily. With social media, phones, and so many other distractions, staying focused has become difficult. All you must do is set a timer for 25 minutes and study only for that time. However, you can decide between 20 to 40 minutes, depending on what suits you. Just do not over-exert yourself.

3. Break time: Time for some fresh air. You have accomplished one of your goals, and now it is sometime for relaxation. Treat yourself to a small break of 5 to 10 minutes for all that dedication and focus. This break will help your mind relax for a while and refocus on the subject better. Snack on your favourite food, stretch a little, or go for a short walk but stick to the time interval. Read | JEE toppers opt for Computer Science over Artificial Intelligence, here’s why

4. Study-Snack-Start: That is the simple mantra to productivity. After the short break, start your schedule again, and once you have completed four sessions of about 25 minutes each, then take a more extended break of about 15 minutes. Refresh and kickstart another Pomodoro session. Studying for long hours can make you feel exhausted and lead to procrastination. This is a simple process where you break-down your schedule into small segments and plan your breaks. This will help you focus better, complete your studies faster, and further help you increase productivity. —
