Prepare a competitive study group
Your best source of cooperation is your competition. Working with a competitive study group goes a very long way in the successful preparation of IITJEE. When you decide to study in groups, you recreate a cooperative environment to multiply your knowledge exponentially. Students can learn very quickly by sharing their knowledge, skills and resources.
Group formation guidelines
- Look for people who are experts in certain subjects and topics.
- Seek diversity in expertise. There should be at least one expert from each subject. Within a subject, look for experts in different areas like organic chemistry, physical chemistry, calculus, co-ordinate, electricity and magnetism, thermodynamics etc.
- This could lead to having a group that is very diverse. It is good because you may also have different learning styles represented in your group.
- It may not be possible to find all experts from the friend circle itself. So, it is important to seek out experts from other areas.
- Make a study group of five to seven people (Larger groups get unwieldy. Groups with less than 5 are difficult to sustain)
How to study in groups?
- Ask your friends for clarifications of doubts.
- Quiz and challenge each other with questions from the IITJEE syllabus.
- Share useful concepts and questions
- Be very eager to help. Answer and teach whenever somebody has a problem.
- If you have to teach a concept, you have to have complete clarity and understanding of the concept. So you are not only helping the other group members, but also you are reinforcing your own knowledge.
- Someone should take the role of the session leader to keep the session productive.
- Take a few minutes at the end of the session to evaluate what you’ve done.
- Don’t meet more than once in two weeks
- Meet at least once a month
- Don’t meet without a clear agenda for the meeting

Attend all lectures, even if attendance is not mandatory. Using someone else’s notes can help, but it is no substitute for attending the lecture. When you hear the information, process it, and write it in your notes, you are already beginning to learn the information. Reinforcement of the information through revision of your notes completes the learning process.
A student spends about 25 hours per week, in coaching and school, attending classes of Physics, Chemistry and mathematics.
Taking Notes From Lectures
Taking notes during a lecture can be a frustrating, almost overwhelming, job.
What should your notebook look like after a lecture?
In general, it should look a little like an outline with clear main ideas and some sub-points with a moderate amount of details and examples. There should probably be some white space so that you add notes from your text or from the next day’s lecture.
- Sit near the front and center of the class. You will have the most direct communication with your professor, and you will less likely be distracted.
- Read the chapter from the textbook before the lecture. It makes a tremendous difference to the understanding of the lecture. This way, a student can focus on the difficult parts of the chapter and ask questions.
- Learn to identify main points. Professors often give cues to what’s important by repeating information, changing their voices or rate of delivery, listing items in order of importance, and, of course, by writing on the chalkboard. What key point is the professor making?
- Maintain eye contact with the instructor. Of course you will need to look at your notebook to write your notes, but eye contact keeps you focused on the job at hand and keeps you involved in the lecture.
- Stay active by asking questions. Active listening keeps you on your toes. Whenever you have a doubt, immediately ask for clarification. Get very specific in the question that you ask.
- Try to anticipate what the professor is going to say. It keeps the mind involved and active in the learning process. Your mind does have the capacity to listen, think, write and ponder at the same time, but it does take practice. You can think faster than the lecturer can talk.
- If the classroom is too hot or too cold, wear appropriate clothes to deal with it.
An essential skill for good note taking is good listening.
Hearing vs. Listening
Is there a difference between hearing and listening?
Yes, there is! Hearing is simply the act of perceiving sound by the ear. If you are not hearing-impaired, hearing simply happens.
Listening, however, is something you consciously choose to do. Listening requires concentration so that your brain processes meaning from words and sentences. Listening leads to learning. Most people tend to be “hard of listening” rather than “hard of hearing.”

Most people seem to be asking this question all the time.
* “Which is a better course material – Brilliants or FIITJEE, Vidya mandir or Bansal Kota?”
* “How should I choose the best correspondence / postal course?”
It is not fair to endorse one brand over the other, particularly when I know that most of the above stated brands were rendered completely useless, less than 3 years ago, when the IIT JEE pattern was changed. The changes were made completely with the objective of reducing the impact of coaching.
The old IIT JEE coaching brands have no experience in Objective type problem solving techniques.
In this context one can understand that emerging brands in IIT JEE coaching, have better material than most old ones. In fact, buying course material from old brands is a recipe for disaster.
How does one choose the course material?
We have listed down some of the critical parameters that should be seen by the students and parents while choosing the course material
* Authors?
Ideally, it should be written by IIT graduates (who have successfully appeared in IITJEE), who are involved in IITJEE coaching. IITians understand the psychology behind successful preparation for IITJEE. By coaching students an IITian is likely to become aware of the problems faced by students.
* Based on the ‘New IITJEE Pattern’
Established teachers in old brands are well aware of the ‘Old IITJEE Pattern. They have no clue of the nuances of the new pattern. Just changing the problems from descriptive to objective type is not enough. A good course must be good on the following parameters:
* Is it time managed?
The biggest problem faced by students is managing time. The course should have a time plan to itself. Having a course material with a lot of problems is of no use unless we know the time to be spent on it. Some course materials try to give a lot of material making it impossible to complete. The total course material should be balanced in such a manner that a student can complete it within the time available.
* Strategies on solving objective type problems
Since, most of the traditional instructors did not face any objective type problems, they dont know the methods of attempting objective type problems. A lot of problems can be solved by elimination of wrong alternatives, intelligent guessing, modulating the speed, speed reading etc. The course should have special focus on the above.
* Synchronization with the school syllabus
Since most students now have to prepare along with Class XI – XII, the problem of managing IIT JEE preparation along with school studies has become more acute. The course should be such that it benefits students in synchronized study.
Other key parameters to assess the course material are:
* Online testing
BITSAT has become online. CAT has become online. It is very likely that IIT JEE also become online by 2011. Online testing also gives a good comparative assessment immediately. Students dont need to join all India test series on paper.
* Preferably in workbook format
Students should get used to solving problems in lesser space. A course material in workbook format limits the space available, forcing students to get used to the format.
Quest course for IITJEE that fits all the above requirements and more.

Most students find it difficult to determine exactly how much time, they should spend in activities in studying. This is particularly important right at the beginning of the study so as to make an effective study plan.
This is complicated even more by the fact that every chapter requires different amount of time. Even different subjects require different amounts of time in theory and problems.
The different questions that come to the mind of the student are:
- How much time should be spent in reading from the textbook?
- Are the notes from tuition/coaching enough? Can I manage without reading the textbook?
- Is there anything to read from the textbook in Mathematics?
- How much time should I spend in solved examples given in the IITJEE course material>
- How much time should be allocated to a certain topic?
- How much time should be spent on a problem that is not getting solved before looking at the solution or asking for help?
- How much time should I spend in testing at home?
- How should I calculate the total time required?
We have tried to answer these questions by giving an indicative time plan.

Achin Bansal (IITJEE 2007 topper)
Work very hard. There is no substitute for hardwork. When you inch close to the exam remain relaxed. Stress can sometimes hamper results. Work Hard and leave the rest to god
Shailedra Thakur (IITJEE 1995)
My advice to students is that never lose the battle of the mind.
Srikanth Jagabathula (IIT Bombay gold medalist)
Don’t get bogged down by pressure, work is duty. You have to really slog it out to get through the test. You should be motivated throughout and Never ever in you dreams give up.
