Students are shortlisted for IITs based on their marks in Class XII board exams as well as JEE Main. While JEE Advance is based on CBSE syllabus, there are a few topics in Mathematics and Physics that you do not need to cover for IIT JEE preparation:
• Mathematics topics you do not need to cover: Mathematical Induction, Statistics, Linear Inequality and Mathematical Reasoning.
• Physics topics you do not need to cover: Magnetism & Matter, Electromagnetic Waves, Electronic Devices (Solids and Semiconductors), and Principles of Communication Systems.
Other study tips you should keep in mind for JEE Advance are:
• To crack JEE Advance, students need a strong understanding of concepts and skills to solve numericals that need good aptitude and have lengthy calculations.
• Students should solve short-answer questions, subjective-type problems and questions based on assertion reasoning to develop deep understanding of the subject as well as multiple-choice type questions to build up speed and accuracy.
Important topics you should cover for JEE Advanced are:
• Physics: Mechanics and Electrodynamics are the two most important topics but one should also devote time to Heat, Thermodynamics, Optics and Modern Physics.
• Chemistry: General principles of Organic Chemistry are easy to understand. Numericals of Physical Chemistry are scoring. Inorganic Chemistry has many facts and figures and requires constant revision.
• Mathematics: Master inter-relationship between various topics. Coordinate Geometry and Vectors can help one to solve problems related to complex numbers. Permutation and Combinations help you to solve problems of Probability. Trigonometry and Calculus again help one to solve all types of problems.
