Do you want to start studying for the JEE exam in class 11 but don’t know where to begin? What is the ideal timetable for you to begin your preparation? And what preparation strategy should you use? 

These are some of the questions that are faced by every student who is in class 11th and wants to begin JEE preparation. 

The format of school exams and competitive exams are vastly different. And when a student moves from class 10 to class 11 and begins preparing for competitive exams, they have no idea where to begin. And in today’s article, we’ll look at “How to Create a Timetable for NTA Jee from Class 11 and How to Begin Its Preparation?”

So, let’s get started with these suggestions:

Know the exam pattern

One can’t excel in any test unless one understands its pattern. In the case of the JEE exam, you cannot begin your preparation without first thoroughly understanding its pattern. So, before devising any strategy or timetable, and before purchasing any book, thoroughly understand the exam pattern.

We have observed several students preparing for the exam without a clear understanding of the exam, where they will seek admission after passing the exam, the pattern of the paper, and so on. As a result, it is recommended that you thoroughly understand the pattern before beginning your preparation. 

Source of preparation

You now understand the format of the exam and how the questions are asked. However, you can’t begin planning a schedule unless you know the sources of preparation. 

In all subjects, especially math, there is no better book than your NCERT. So, before beginning to work on other books, complete each NCERT question in all subjects. Also, don’t forget to read the NCERT theory, especially for chemistry. NTA is asking chemistry questions directly from NCERT, according to the past year’s trends. For additional practice, modules from any coaching institutes, as well as any good book and past year papers, are sufficient.

Examine the entire JEE syllabus

As you’re new to class 11th, the JEE syllabus will be somewhat unfamiliar to you. You did, however, study the fundamentals of these topics in class 10, so you are familiar with the syllabus. So, first and foremost, go over the NTA JEE Syllabus and check out the whole chapter. It will not only pique your interest in studying them, but it will also help you begin your preparation.

MCQ practice 

You have lived a different life up until now, where you have prepared for your exams differently. You primarily concentrate on important topics, and memorizing them has fetched you good marks. 

The main difference between competitive exam preparation and school exams is the presence of MCQs.

Without rigorous practice, it is impossible to solve MCQs efficiently. So, while creating a perfect timetable for your preparation make sure to leave enough time for MCQs. After finishing a chapter, try to solve 10 MCQs from Physics, Chemistry, and Math each day.

It will increase your efficiency, speed while solving problems, and will remove your fear. 

Work on basics

Jumping into a battle without understanding the basics is pointless, and the same is true for the JEE exam, where you can’t get a good rank unless you thoroughly understand a topic. Students in class 11th, on the other hand, spend the majority of their time focusing on completing the syllabus on time while failing to understand the topic.

We admit that the JEE Exam syllabus is extensive, particularly in math. Preparation of any kind is insufficient for the subject. However, this does not imply that we prioritize syllabus completion over topic comprehension. So, instead of jumping right into questions, devote enough time in your schedule to understanding the topic.

Devote equal time on each subject 

When making your schedule, make sure to include equal time for all three subjects. The main problem that students face during the preparation phase is that they find maths to be interesting and diverse, so they devote the majority of their preparation time to math. The second most time they devote to physics is because the subject’s concepts fascinate them.

Though Chemistry has so many concepts to memorize, they devote less time to it, particularly organic and inorganic chemistry. Lower chemistry grades, on the other hand, will lower your overall ranking. And rank is a significant factor in gaining admission to a good college.

Don’t create a hectic schedule

You are in 11th grade and have two years to prepare for the JEE. So, from now on, avoid making a hectic schedule. Since many students have hectic schedules and study all day, it is impossible to maintain the same rhythm for an extended period.

So, when creating a perfect schedule, start by making your timetable stress-free and gradually increasing your study hour with time. It will assist you in remaining consistent in your studies, and you will never become bored with this study.

Study in a small session 

Several scientific studies have found that our brain remains active for 30 to 45 minutes. And studying for long periods will make you bored and unable to concentrate on the subject.

So, when planning your schedule for JEE Mains preparation, divide your time into small study sessions and remember to take a break between two subjects. 

Create a To-do list daily

Though, based on the information provided above, you can easily create an ideal timetable for your JEE preparation. However, a to-do list will assist you in managing your whole day. 

If you don’t make a to-do list, you’ll skip from one chapter to the next and from one subject to the next. So, when you wake up in the morning, make a to-do list of everything you want to accomplish that day.

Conclusion

As 11th-grade students, you frequently face challenges while studying for the JEE. You have developed several study plans and strategies, but they are ineffective. So, in this article, we talked about how to make the best study schedule and master plan. These tips will undoubtedly help you create an ideal schedule and make your preparation period a little more comfortable.
