There are almost two months left for the exam. This is an exam important enough to conclude someone’s future. There are certain things which we are going to tell you that you must and must not do which will affect your performance for good. Here are some tips for the students appearing for JEE Main so that they can increase their efficiency in these remaining two months which, in turn, will improve their result.

Do’s
• The first thing you should do in order to increase your efficiency is keeping good care of your body. Eat healthy food. Include fruits and dry fruits in your diet which are an important source of vitamins and minerals required to keep your body active and your mind sharp. Also, start your mornings with mild exercises. Running and yoga keeps your mind healthy and active which increases your ability to understand and learn things faster.
• Not getting a proper sleep is one the most common mistakes students make while preparing for competitive exams like JEE. Most of the students burn midnight oil which affects their learning abilities seriously. Instead of this, you should sleep early and wake up in the early morning. Research shows that the mind’s grasping power is at its peak during early hours.
• Strengthen your strong subjects. As the exam date is getting closer and closer, there is no point of starting new topics. It will just increase the chaos. Instead, take a good grasp of your strong topics so that there are fewer chances of making mistakes.
• Solve as many mock papers as you can. This will not only give you an idea about the types of questions asked but also help you learn time management. This exam not only tests your knowledge but also your time management and problem-solving skills. Don’t just stick to a hard problem. Give it some time and if it still doesn’t seem solvable, move on to the next question.
• While revising, don’t start revising chapters from the beginning. Instead, start solving questions of medium and high difficulty which have a high probability of being asked in the exam. Also, don’t just solve questions in your mind. Solve questions by writing them down. It increases retaining capacity.

Don’ts
• Don’t start any new topics. Stick to the ones you’ve already studied.
• Don’t lose confidence. Most of that students lose their momentum at this crucial stage and end up in trouble. Stay focused and keep your goal in mind.
• Don’t waste your time on social media. It is good to stay connected to the outer world but an excess of it might land you in trouble. There are many students who lose track of their time and end up in situations that lead to failure.
