How to Prepare for IITJEE in 6 Months -A Stepwise Master Plan


The bad news is that the time flies, the good news is that you are the pilot ....

My previous article was How to prepare for IITJEE In 6 Months. That article just gave the books to study and it wasn’t so elaborate and many of them in forums, mails are asking about how to study in these 6 months. Here i present you the perfect plan to crack IITJEE in 6 months.


Which Books to be studied?

The books below are all IITians general suggession.But if you think the book is not suiting your need then feel free to change it. But the most recommended are these

Physics:

  • NCERT Physics
  • HC Verma (That’s  the best book available for physics)
  • Arihant by DC Pandey

Chemistry:

  • NCERT (Dont miss this one)
  • Physical - P Bahadur
  • Organic -Arihant
  • Inorganic - P.Bahadur/OP Tandon

Besides this you do from your coaching institute material (prefer Brilliant tutorials material).At final revise YG File (if u have), last year IIT problems or Arihant new pattern. Then take test series (take Brilliant Tutorials not FIIT JEE seriously as it is beyond JEE level and de-motivates you a lot

Mathematics:

  • ML Khanna or RD Sharma

Many people think ML Khanna sucks lot of time but according to me it clears the basics and also key to solve different kinds of probs. But don’t look at solutions before giving a try.Even RD Sharma works, but I suggest ML Khanna

  • Coaching maths questions
  • Arihant series in Maths

if time permits TMH Mathematics



A Readymade Plan for all...

Here comes the study plan for those who have not yet started JEE preparation till now .This Plan is for 6 months. Make sure you follow it sincerely

October:

Physics – electrostatics, capacitors, electric current, Magnetics

Chemistry – Nomenclature, isomerism, GOC, Hydrocarbons

Maths – functions, limits, continuity and differentiability

November:

Physics – Electromagnetic Induction, Modern Physics

Chemistry – Aldehydes and Ketones, Alcohols and Ethers, Amines

Maths – Application of derivatives, integration        

December:

Physics – Optics, Mechanics

Chemistry – States of Matter, Thermodynamics, Electrochemistry, Equilibrium

Maths – Straight lines, circles, parabola, Properties of triangle

January:

Physics – Properties of matter, SHM, waves

Chemistry – S, P, D block and transition elements

Maths – Complex Numbers, Quadratic Equations, Probability, Determinants

February:

For your boards’ preparation

March:

As soon as your exams get over, collect all the test papers (your institute’s) and last year IIT problems of above chaps

April:

Revise thoroughly your Notes and don’t read anything new. Don’t read anything 4 days before the big day to relieve you from tension. Be confident and cool

For 12th Pass:

Read thermodynamics, Mechanics, Vectors &3D Geometry, Differential Equations, Solutions, Carbohydrates in February and March.

But I suggest trying problems on the chapters you know than studying new chapters.


This plan is very possible if you study hard with full dedication and determination.

Can’t you lose your enjoyment for 6 months for a good life ?

Sir,

Most of study institues are providing IIT-JEE examination solutions and there are not providing question bank. Kindly advise me or guide me for getting the question bank along with solutions.

With regards

Thanks a lot for the article.Tell me how to save myself from net problems means those type of films etc. i can't conc. on my study bcoz of all these & is thinking to cut net connection . Is m i on right path? else what shud i do to control myself.
I also hav a very bad habit to start preparing anything (whether test or exam) at just at the last time and waste tim till then for eg for last chem. exam when 5 days were available i started preparing it only on the last day and till last could prepare only 7 chapters.What shud i do to solve it?
I tried ur plan to study 12hrs. daily cud follow it just for 3 days in 7 and ended up hopless wasting time on net
Please help me i really need it as there is nobody whom i can talk on these matters

@ Raunknandan

Go for IIT JEE work hard for AIEEE as well. AIEEE is bit less competitive to IIT JEE, so chances remain better to get a good college. You are a good student so need not to worry, if you have filled up the application forms this year then go for the tests otherwise work hard for next year.

Generally, The Coaching institutes are better option as these provide you a strict time table, competition and study material including mock tests, Anyhow it completely depends upon you if you feel comfortable with individual teachers.

You have done with your 12th Board exam, so start revising topics of 11th, go through the basic concepts and NCERT that will boost your basic knowledge and will help you in getting understood the further things.

All the best.

HI
I like this study plan but still i have a problem.
There are lot of questions in all above suggested books. So i am confused about that what should i study , i mean how many questions should i solve from each book. Because even if i endeavour to solve maximum questions , it'll consume a lot of time that i don't have.
so can you please suggest me something ?

@santee

there are almost 5 months left for JEE and ur plan shud be to utilise the 5 months to the fullest.

and about the timetable...i have already listed the plan for a student who is preparing for JEE in 6 months...and if u are starting from nevember onwards then u can adjust the october schedule somehow by keeping 2 hours extra for it..

ok then if u are free the whole day and night...let me tell u how ur day shud look like

First of all dont neglect ur boards...they are very important...giv e equal importance to all the 3 subjects and board exam,,,

Daily..study.. 10 hours for JEE and 3 hours for Boards...

in those 10 hours for JEE ...3 hours for PCM each..and remaining 1 hour..for reviion of the while day whatever u have done in that day...and revising formulaes..stuff...
and 3 hours for boards...in that..study the baord stuff...try to study all the subjects in those 3 hours if possible ...or u can do 45 min each for Physics,chem and maths...and rest...subjects adjust them in the remaining time...if u want more time for the subjects like English and others...then add 1 hour extra..f u have budget...

If u want to study more that 13 hours a day...then u can adjust urself....its ur choice...but try to study minimum 10 hours for JEE...if u want to get a good rank...
the plan is quite hectic but u must think that its a do or die situation ...and follow this for 5 months..and see urself in IIT next year :-)

@mansi... hi

Its natural to find TMH difficult since its truly difficult
DOnt get disheartened if u are not able to solve the problems from TMH.
what u can do is continue with das gupta and solve the same problems 3 times...i mean repeat the book 3 times.
This will enhance ur problem solving skils and later jump over to The BAAP of IITJEE books the TMH mathematics
CHEERS

@UDAY CHAUHAN
Dont call me Mod please...call me manish ;-)

See there are total 6 months left for JEE...right?
what u can do is study accord=ding to this timetable listed above

Everyone has strong and weak points ...you are string in Physics and Chem and maths..u fond it tough..
So what you can do is give more concentration to p and C now and maths keep daily 3 hours...or more..its ur choice..and study only that...
Maths is a kind of a subject which is mastered by LOTS of practice...dude ...dont loose heart so early...
The war has just started...
Just study daily maths....and remove the thought from ur mind that i find maths tough...after 3 months..u will..come to know the results of it.

My advice is to Chalte chalo....you will surely crack JEE and you will surely ...master Maths...by Jan..if you start today..

Better start today KYA PATA KAL HO NA HO ! :-)
