Dear candidate the answer to your question will be certainly yes. The reason for this is-
- The simplest need to begin preparation for IIT JEE in class 11 is because of the fact that the JEE Exam Syllabus comprise of class 11 and class 12 syllabus for the subjects Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics.
-
A one year preparation period, along with class 12 studies can make it a little too stretched for everyone. There have been lakhs of cases where students were eventually forced to drop a year after class 12 to prepare well.
-
Class 11 syllabus becomes the core of the entire syllabi across the three subject domains. So, while they prepare for their school exams, students can simultaneously start referring IIT Books for class 11.
-
Such a steady and distributed step wise approach not only assists with preparing the subjects well, but is also helpful towards adopting a stress free regime.
Hope this helps
Hi manali ..
Hope you're doing good
First you need to find a good resource to learn I mean if you like online coaching or offline coaching ...go for it ..
And if you have potential to self study daily for 3,4 hours that's very well but it's very hard if you have a regular school.
Class 11 syllabus becomes the core of the entire syllabi across the three subject domains. So, while you prepare for their school exams, you can simultaneously start referring jee books for class 11.
All the best find a resource first
Hello Aspirant,
How many hours should you study ?
Some of you out there must be toppers of your class or among the top 10% of your class. But that is just a performance in your class or best at a school level. It means till now you have been competing among a small student base of 50 – 1000 students.
But once you start preparing for IITJEE or AIEEE entrance, the competition is huge. This year in 2015, over 2 lakh students appeared in IITJEE and over 12 lakh in AIEEE. So my advice is that you seriously need to scale up your efforts to face the competition.
Are you ready to face these challenges?
You need to prepare yourself mentally as well as physically to face this competition.Mentally, you need to think wide when you think of competition you are facing. So don’t get defocused and remember that you have to compete with unknowns so you have to put your all efforts in it to excel.
May you have scored well in your school level examinations by not even spending 20 hours on studies at home but this is not going to be enough with such a huge competition. You need to scale up your efforts and set a target of 50-55 hours studies at home every week and you have to do scale up step by step.
It also true that you are not going to get start studying for 9-10 hours suddenly its require proper strategy.
- For the first week you try to cut down your times which you are spending in other works by 2 to 3 hours
- Next week cut down your times which you are spending in other works again by 2 to 3 hours
- You cannot start studying 1o hours a day suddenly where as earlier you are studying for 3 to 4 hours
- Try to do same as earlier, Increase your study time from 3-4 to 6-7 hours and in next week or after 2 weeks scale up to 9 to 10 hours.
How you study for these hours?
You have to study with full concentration, no disturbance, and continuously for 3 hour sessions. The idea is to simulate real exam conditions. While studying, you have to create an atmosphere as if you are sitting in exam. Avoid doing following during a 3 hours session:
- Study on a desk if you have it at home. Avoid studying while lying down on a bed.
- Don’t get up from your desk during 3 hours of study session. Even not for drinking water.
- Don’t listen music during studies. If you have a habit, then slowly come out of it by reducing it day by day.
- No phone calls and no SMS during studies
Things you should not do during JEE preparation!
Remember that for next 2 years you have to give your best to get admission in a good college. So to take out 55 hours every week, you need to sacrifice some of your time sucking activities.
If you are involved in any of the following activities mentioned below, I suggest you should stop it immediately:
- Don't socialize too much: -Avoid too much talking on phone with your friends. Not more than -30 minutes every day. Keep yourself away from family discussions and don’t get into arguments with parents and brothers/sisters because it will only wastes your time and energy. Be selfish to focus on your career.
- Don't spend long hours on TV , Internet and playing games:- If you are too much into TV, cut down immediately. Don’t spend more than 1 hour in front of TV every day.
Internet is the biggest addiction of all time. Real time sucker. Don’t sit on computer for more than 1 hour unless as their any study need.
- Don't play outdoor sports:- Those who are playing physical games a lot should reduce them. These games are very tiring. If you are physically tired, you would not be able to concentrate on studies. I suggest evening walk or light exercise either in the morning or evening.
- Don't study late night:- Those who study late nights, sleep whole day. This is a bad schedule. If you don’t sleep well in the night, you will feel sleepy in school and in your coaching classes. So best is you should sleep for 7 hours any time between 10 PM to 9 AM. Those who don’t get study atmosphere at home in the day time, in worst case they should study till 2.00 AM and get up at 9.00 AM.
- Don't sleep for long or two short sleep hours:- You should target for 7 hours sleep every day. Also avoid day time sleeping for more than 90 minutes.Those you could manage to sleep less, I would not recommend a sleep of less than 5-6 hours. If body is tired, mind cannot function properly.
- Don'ts go to school daily: -I suggest that if possible, go to school not more than 4 times a week. School studies are not going to play important role in your career at this stage. Even school studies should be done just before the exams say 1-2 weeks before exams.
Stay focused during these 2 years as you have a lot of time to prepare.make your own techniques to solve the problems. practise as much as question as possible.
work smart as well as hard.
GOOD LUCK!
