IIT JEE Preparation & Solution

IIT-JEE: Intelligent guesswork can help you score big

2012-01-04T19:56:00.000-08:00

Mathematics is one subject that can make a big difference to the marks you notch up at the IIT-JEE. Predictably, it is one subject that requires a great share of your time and attention.

It requires a lot of written practice, in geometry and integral calculus, and intuitive guesswork. You can develop a knack for intuitive guesswork only if you attempt as many problems you can.

The Mathematics texts published by Tata McGraw Hill, Arihant and Hall-Knight (for algebra) are what I'd recommend. S. L. Loney's books are regarded as the best, but their questions are at a level that's higher than the IIT-JEE nevertheless, read them hone your understanding co-ordinate geometry. Arihant's books contain many solved problems and a number of tricks that will help you save a lot of time. Prepare notes on the important concepts/ formulae and revise them frequently. I would rate complex numbers as a tough topic but it is equally rewarding because it can be used in geometry. Co-ordinate geometry carries a lot of weight and requires a lot of patience because of the vastness of the concepts involved in the topic.

Inside the examination hall, look for hidden answers in the questions. Many integrals, for instance, turn out to be zero and this can be deduced by looking at the function, without wasting time in solving the problem completely. Permutations and combinations and probability are usually found in matrix matches and comprehension, and can be cracked with a bit of intelligent guessing, looking at the values involved and the numeratordenominator in the options. Using these tricks of the trade is better than spending a lot of time on one question. Math is written practice + tricks + intelligent guessing.

IIT-JEE may consider online test

2011-11-22T22:58:00.000-08:00

The Indian Institutes of Technology could be thinking of conducting an online joint entrance examination (JEE), on the lines of the Indian Institutes of Management. While the common admission test (CAT) for entry into IIMs went online three years ago, the IITs are yet to take the big step.

The IIT-Delhi, which is organizing IIT-JEE 2012, has invited all IIT directors for a workshop on Friday, where an online model will be demonstrated. The JEE office is hosting the workshop. Sources from IIT-Delhi have confirmed that Education Testing Services (ETS), which conducts the GRE and several other popular global online examinations, will make a presentation at the workshop.

Most officials on record denied plans to go online with JEE. A senior official from one of the IITs claimed that the workshop was scheduled to discuss the possibilities of an online examination for JEE. "We might just discuss the feasibility. No decision has been taken," said the official.

A senior IIT-B professor said, "An online exam may or may not work for JEE. While CAT faced teething problems initially, it is stabilized now. For an exam, where you need to calculate a lot, pen and paper seems to be a better option. But students these days are well versed with technology and in future, everything might be computerized."

Currently, only two directors have responded to the invitation, claimed an official from IIT-Delhi. "Experts from ETS will make a presentation and showcase their testing systems. It is a successful testing pattern in the US. But there will not be any overnight decision on JEE going online," said the official.

IIT JEE last minute preparation tips by an IITJEE Aspirant

2011-11-15T20:31:00.000-08:00

Ok so you guys have read a lot about last minute IITJEE preparation’s by the experts? How about a preparation guide straight from an IITJEE aspirant? Enjoy this post

“Hi, I am sharan. Here, I am going 2 give a blueprint for those STARTING their preparation in august (in their 12th). Following these points meticulously will help you to get into IIT’s, even though you have started your preparation VERY late.

1) IGNORE your boards completely till January end.

2) Go to http://www.iitd.ac.in/jee/ and download the syllabi for P,C & M and stick to it VERY STRICTLY while doing any of the topics from the books listed below.

3) Buy these books:

Physics:

HC Verma (vol 1& 2) - done thoroughly with full understanding of concepts

Chemistry:

NCERT books (only for the theory - not the assignment problems!) +

IIT chemistry by TMH (Tata McGraw Hill - complete the whole book)

* don’t neglect chem. It’s the most scoring & least analytical. Either you know it or you don't {as chem is: mugging of facts (inorganic and organic) & mathematics (physical)}

Math:

IIT Math’s by ML Khanna - don’t look at the solution immediately if you don’t get the problem. Look into it only after making a lot of attempts (at least 4 fresh attempts).

Solve this book fully.

4) By the time you complete the above books, it is the end of your December holidays (ie, you get 4.5 to 5 months)

5) In the meantime, (around august middle) join Brilliant tutorials YG Files (screwingly tough problems book) & B.MAT (test series). The above 2, come under one course. Go to www.brilliant-tutorials.com and apply. Don’t apply for FIITJEE test series, as it is supposed 2 be unnecessarily tough.

6) Start solving the YG Files ONLY AFTER completing the text books listed, else, you will get the impression that IIT is beyond your reach.

Do the test analysis of brilliant properly and improve your timing

7) ##oh yes, forgot to tell you:

i) During school days, devote 5 hours (effective, concentrated time) for IIT preparation alone.

ii) In holidays, devote 8 hours for IIT alone.

iii) In your study holidays, start studying for boards (5 hours/ day would do). Side by side, revise IIT stuff for 5 hours.

8) After boards, till 2 days before the actual IIT-JEE, slough out for 12 hours of concentrated study devoted for IIT. Revise and strengthen all your concepts in all the books and tests you have done so far. 2 days before IIT JEE, STOP studying/thinking about studying & do some relaxation techniques such as meditation etc for temperament control. Get all the sleep you can ask for and go to the exam with a fresh mind and with brimming confidence.

9) You are going to receive the fruits of your hard work a month later when you are deemed successful in IIT JEE. You are now an IITian!!!

HOPE you found this article ’very useful’. “

Hello Folks

First of all let me wish you all the best for your choice as you have chosen something really good which is to compete for IIT entrance exam.

The entrance exam is considered to be one of the toughest. But if you see the previous year papers the exam is no more considered tough.

Books to be used?

Well todays market is filled with lots of books from which some are considered really good. I would advice you not to go for each and every book. Better stick to one book and so move on to higher level.

Dont overload yourself with lots of books

Books are your best friends but studying too many books are really harmful. Trust me.
My advice will be to go few books listed below

Physics :

HC Verma
Arihant Publications

Chemistry:

NCERT (must)
Arihant Organic chemistry
OP Tondon

Mathematics:

ML khanna or RD Sharma
Arihant

These many books are more than enough to crack IIT JEE. Just make it a point to study them seriously and thoroughly.

IITJEE Preparation Tips by IITJEE Topers

2010-03-31T23:51:00.000-07:00

I passed IIT-JEE in 2002 (with AIR 118), when there used to be a screening test of objective type, and a main exam of subjective type. The pattern of the exam has changed since, but strategy remains the same.

1. Get your fundamentals and basics clear. Don't rush, give ample time and effort to basic concepts. That's what will see you through the exam.

2. Practice a lot. This involves two types of practices:

a. Without time limit: Solve the solved examples, without looking at the answer. Then see if you were wrong, and if so, why? The purpose of practice is learning the right approach. Then solve other questions.
b. With time limit: Take few time-limited tests to simulate exam environment. The purpose is to improve speed and build temperament.

3. Then before the exam, take rest for a few days. Don't study new concepts, relax. That increases performance and improves temperament in the exam.

4. Self confidence is the key to crack this exam. From a comparative analysis of IITians, self confidence was one thing that I found common amongst all the good rankers.

'Don't worry as your hard work will bring you the success'

As you are nearing the exam day don't try to cover new topics. Just concentrate on the ones you are good at and try to consolidate them.

Take some mock tests on your own to get the timing right.

Exam day

Have a good's night sleep the day before and don't read too much on that day.

Before you start the exam read the instructions completely. Check for negative marking and the breakup of marks.

You can answer all the questions if the negative marking is -1 for a 4-mark question as you only need to get one in 5 to lose nothing.

If you feel that you have taken more time for a question just leave it and try to revisit it in the end if time is left.

Don't worry as your hard work will bring you the success.

'Remember that this is just another examination and not the end of life'

A lot has changed in the JEE system after I had cleared it in 2006. But the basics rules are still the same.

Be confident but not over-confident. All the three papers in the exam are equally important. Don't presume your strengths and weaknesses because it may so happen that the questions in your favourite subject are a bit tough and you might get demoralised.

Don't run after attempting too many questions; getting them correct is more important. With less than two weeks to go for JEE, take care of your health and don't stress yourself too much. Just carry on revising basics everyday and make sure you solve at least two sample question papers (timed) everyday.

During this time, don't solve previous year's question papers as there are chances that you may either get very complacent or very demoralised.

In the end, remember that this is just another examination and not the end of life. All the best!

IMPORTANT DATES FOR IIT JEE 2010

2010-03-26T03:36:00.000-07:00

Tips to ace the IIT-JEE 2010

2010-03-11T04:41:00.000-08:00

Approximately four lakh students are expected to appear for the IIT-JEE 2010, scheduled for April 11, 2010. My advice to students is to avoid selective study in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. This is because with the number of questions being more in objective type papers and with intermingling of their underlying concepts, all topics are likely
to be covered.

The syllabus is almost completely based on Class XI and XII (View the exhaustive syllabus with all chapters and their topics by logging on to www.iitjee.org). The JEE syllabus of Class XI and XII contributes about 45 per cent and 55 per cent of IIT-JEE question papers respectively. When you are preparing all the chapters of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, stress may be given, in particular, on the following topics.

Mathematics: Quadratic equations and expressions, complex numbers, probability, vectors, matrices in algebra; circle, parabola, hyperbola in coordinate geometry; functions, limits, continuity and differentiability, application of derivatives, definite integral in calculus.

Physics: Mechanics, fluids, heat and thermodynamics, waves and sound, capacitors and electrostatics, magnetics,
electromagnetic induction, optics and modern physics.

Chemistry: Qualitative analysis, coordination chemistry and chemical bonding in inorganic chemistry, electrochemistry, chemical equilibrium in physical chemistry and organic chemistry complete as a topic.

Planning is the key
The way to prepare and deal with the study pressure is proper planning and its implementation.

* Divide the time available on the three subjects.
* Further detail out the chapter-wise, topic-wise time schedule.
* Make summary notes/ points to remember of all the concepts topic/ chapter-wise and flag the questions with twist, intermingling of concepts requiring analytical skills.

This will help in quick revision, a couple of days before or even on the eve of the examination.

The right approach
Students, who are simultaneously preparing for Class XII board exams and IIT-JEE, should start concentrating on Class XII and the corresponding IIT-JEE chapters around 21 days before board examination. However, the flame should be kept burning even for Class XI chapters by way of revision till the start of the board examinations. After the board examinations, focused and concentrated revision of both Class XI and XII subjects will have to be undertaken.

The right approach for those appearing for the first time or second (last) time is to stick to one source and not to refer to multitude of books/ study material available in the market. For example it is sufficient to go through study-packages,
IIT-JEE archives, review-packages, work-books, Grand Masters Package/ Equivalent, AITS/AIITS series etc,
supplied by FIITJEE if the student is enrolled in any of its programmes. To reap benefits, the students, throughout preparation period, should remain focused with a positive attitude to study with utmost concentration.

It is quality of time spent and not the quantity alone. A short break of 5 to 10 minutes every one to one-and-a-half hours of serious study is advisable. Total relaxation during the break should charge the batteries for another intensive spell of serious study.

Pattern of papers
There will be two three-hour [P (Physics), C (Chemistry) and M (Mathematics) combined] papers to test the aptitude,
comprehension and analytical ability of students. The expected pattern in 2010 is a suitable mix of various types from
2006 to 2009.

Importance of practice sessions
To keep focused for better results, students should strictly follow a well-planned time schedule. During practice sessions speed in working out the questions should be developed. This is a natural byproduct if the student has attempted questions from basic principles in the initial stages. However, it is never too late to practice it. This strategy of solving questions from fundamentals will induce in the student a parallel thinking process so very necessary to increase and master analytical skills with conceptual understanding.

The proof of the pudding, however, is in the eating. Progress made must be checked by solving quizzes/ mock test papers on a regular basis. The student should aim at 100 per cent hit rate ie all attempted questions are correct. This will ensure a competitive edge over others who will be left behind due to negative marking. Speed and accuracy will also allow finishing the paper ahead of time, leaving some time for revision.

Keep mind and body fit
Asanas, pranayama and meditation (in that order) every day in the morning and/or evening will help to develop inner calm and power of concentration needed for success. This will ultimately be of immense help on the test day. A minimum of at least 5 to 6 hours of sleep daily is necessary to keep the mind and body fit.

Facing the exam
The strategy in the examination hall will be to keep cool, to have faith and to harness the examination temperament built during planned preparation. It is advisable to reach the examination centre at least 20 minutes early. A few deep breaths will ward off nervousness. Instructions given in the question papers should be read and followed very carefully. The student should not spend more than 45 minutes on any of the subjects in the first attempt. He should fix priorities after a concentrated quick reading of the paper and start with answering the question he knows best and move progressively to ones in ascending order of difficulty.

Questions with no negative marks must be attempted. The 45-minute cycle should be repeated for the other two subjects. Thereafter the student should come back to the three sections for attempting left out questions, conceptually with well-reasoned logic and for overall revision during the last 45 minutes. Even if some segment/ section appears to be tough, one should keep cool since it is the relative performance which will count.

Remain positive
The IIT-JEE exam tests one's understanding in application of concepts and analytical skills vis-a-vis mechanical/ blind application of formulae/ theory. Temporary set-backs or poor performance during practice in some quiz or mock test paper should not discourage and one should march onwards with greater will and determination.

The success in the IIT-JEE examination is directly proportionate to the number of problems solved independently and preferably by more than one method. To raise the bar and to develop muscles, the weight is to be lifted by the student himself.

IIT-JEE likely to be abolished by 2013

2010-02-17T03:13:00.000-08:00

The joint entrance examination (JEE) for admission to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) is likely to become history from 2013 as the central government Tuesday decided to work on a common entrance test for all government engineering colleges.

'By 2013, we should have in place a common system for common admission into professional institutions in the country,' Human Resource Development Minister Kapil Sibal said Tuesday after meeting at least 20 school education boards from across the country.

Explaining the situation, HRD ministry joint secretary S.C. Khuntia said: 'We will work for a common entrance test for every stream. One examination for all engineering institutions, which means IITs will also follow it.'

'In that parameter, there should not be any separate IIT entrance,' Khuntia told IANS. 'Lets see, we have to work in that direction.'

'As per the score of the entrance, selection will be made. Let's say, the top rankers may go to IITs, the second bests will go to institutions which are a step below the IITs...so on,' Khuntia elaborated. 'The system will benefit the students most.'

After the meeting with school boards, Sibal said: 'We will be working towards a single entrance examination in 2013. We are setting up a task force for that.'

Explaining the situation, the minister said there will be single entrance for each stream. For example, admission to all medical courses may take place through one entrance examination and all engineering admissions through another common entrance.

Sibal said the task force would decide how to go about it and look into issues like the weightage the Class 12 board examination result will have in the admission procedure.

How to crack the IIT JEE

2010-01-19T01:46:00.000-08:00

Students opting for Science in plus two with PCM combination(physics, chemistry, mathematics) want to get admission into the most prestigious institution for engineering in the country – the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT). They believe that this will guarantee a prosperous future. Undoubtedly, they are successful and are occupants of the best jobs in India and abroad and are revered for their knowledge and technical know how. And the gateway to this paradise of engineering – the IIT JEE.

The IIT Joint Entrance Examination (IIT JEE) is conducted by the IIT for admission to the seven IITs (Kanpur, Kharagpur, Delhi, Mumbai, Guwahati, Roorkee, Chennai), IT Varanasi and ISM Dhanbad. It is difficult to crack this exam and all desirous candidates should have the basics on fingertips. The IIT JEE examination consists of two three-hour papers. The papers are divided into three sections each with questions in physics, chemistry and maths. The basis of the questions is the syllabus followed by the CBSE and ISC Boards. The test format is objective type.

Being a master of calculus in mathematics, and mechanics and electromagnetism in physics is a big aid to students. Some of the essential topics that you should concentrate on are Modern Physics and electronics, Wave options, Inorganic chemistry and General chemistry. Also study in depth Solid State, Probability and Differential Equations. Other important and scoring topics are analytical geometry, electricity, mechanics and physical chemistry. A good knowledge of these topics will enable you in answering most of the paper correctly.

It is essential to have clarity in the subjects. All the subjects- physics, chemistry and maths, should be given equal importance. Constant and unrelenting practice and revision is a must. It is best to make a timetable for yourself. This will help devote time for each subject. You require ample time and hard work to crack the IIT JEE.

Hard work should be combined with tact to get through IIT. You must keep in mind that there is negative marking. So avoid answering those that you are unsure of. It is better to get less positive points than earn negative marks. You should answer what you know best first. Then concentrate on the difficult segments. Approach the exam with a positive outlook, cool mind and confident attitude. This will give you an edge over other aspirants.

You may be a master of the subjects, but cracking IIT JEE needs effective guidance as well. It is a good option to enroll into a reputed training institute. They teach you the fundamentals that you may not already know. They do not force you upon studying, but they do motivate you. The trainers educate you on tips to answer the papers in the best possible way. Though this may not be the best way to succeed but it does enhance your chances.

IIT JEE may seem simple to you, but you should realize that most students answer the exam well and only a handful get a call. The competition is treacherous and the number of applicants is sky high. You may miss it by a fraction. So any student who wants to achieve a seat in IIT, start preparing today, exert yourself, forget distractions and with only one goal in mind, appear for the IIT JEE.

AIEEE 2009 - Last-minute prep tips for AIEEE

2009-04-21T06:14:00.000-07:00

Getting through the All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) is not all about conceptual clarity and knowledge of the appropriate formulae and theories. There is more to it than meets the eye. The defining characteristic is its timed multiple choice question (MCQ) format.

The basic idea of a timed test is that you have to work and answer under the constraint of time. Hence, a simple step-by-step algorithmic method of solving a question would only waste your time and put you at a disadvantage. What is required is a set of unconventional tools and methods of problem-solving, apart from the commonsense approach.

A crash course at leading institutes would have given you ample exposure to the types of questions expected. The internet is full of AIEEE solutions for most of the previous years' AIEEE papers. What would help your preparation at this time is solving free online tests under similar time constraints or downloading a few AIEEE papers and doing them as timed tests.

Here are a few additional tips from TCYonline experts that will help you handle any MCQ format question with elan:

Pre-exam strategies

Tip 1: Relax

This is not the time to panic; this is the time to consolidate your preparation and be confident. If you have gone through the AIEEE question papers of the previous years, you would know that AIEEE is not a tough test. It is based completely on the curriculum that you followed at +1 and +2 levels. What you really need is to be mentally alert, though completely relaxed in the exam, so that you do not make silly errors.

Tip 2: Prioritise

Your first preference should be to consolidate the syllabi that you are thorough with and then take up, in convenient lots, the rest of the syllabus you are not so comfortable with. In this preparation, the past AIEEE papers would come in handy. Shortlist a few topics based on the past papers and then systematically work on them. Once you are through with one lot of topics, you may take up the next.

Tip 3: Practice

Divide all the AIEEE Model Papers you use for practice into the following three parts. Each part should be practiced, and timed separately. This is because your strengths and weaknesses in different subject areas vary.

1: AIEEE - Math

This section is to be allotted the maximum time out of the three sections. The 35 questions you have in this section must be attempted in not more than 70 minutes.

2. AIEEE - Physics

The 35 questions in this section should ideally be allotted 50 minutes.

3. AIEEE - Chemistry

This section must be done in 45 minutes.

If you follow this time frame in the actual exam, you will still be left with a comfortable cushion of 15 minutes.

In-exam strategies

Always transfer your answers to the ovals, five at a time. This will reduce the frequent and wasteful back and forth shuttling between the Question Paper and the Answer Sheet, during the exam.
Proceed by the process of elimination (POE). Eliminating improbable options will help zero-in on the correct answers. This strategy will also help reduce the probability of errors while you make intelligent guesses.
Guesstimate your calculations. For example, you can easily figure out that the product of 302 and 402 would be slightly greater than 120000 (the product of 300 and 400). You may pick your choice accordingly.
Try these tips out and see how they work wonders for you.

CAT 2008 Preparation: A winning strategy

2008-09-25T22:04:00.000-07:00

Sharing a very useful Article for CAT 2008 Aspirants

With less than two months to go for the Common Admission Test (CAT), look no further -- just practice and strategise. It would be an exercise in futility to experiment with new concepts at this point. All an MBA aspirant has to do right now is stay focused.

Since the CAT is a high voltage war of nerves, the best option at this stage would be to maintain your cool. A slight slip on your part and the game's up.

US meltdown and you!

As a CAT faculty with years of experience behind me, the winning strategy I would suggest is to adopt the mantra 'a mock test a day till the D-day'!

As a smart student your strategy should also be to supplement your classroom learning with online learning. For the uninitiated, thousands of free practice tests are available on the web-portal www.tcyonline.com. By doing these tests you would get a fair idea as to where you stand, because these tests give you analytics too.

1. Strategy
At this stage, you are supposed to be conversant with some basic concepts. I would suggest a game plan like:

One MOCK TEST a day -- with the same time constraints.
Benchmark your performance against that of others
Double up the effort and the time for analyzing the test
Analyse what went wrong and why
Try to find out how you could have done better
Analyse what questions you should have attempted and what not
Learn from your mistakes -- try out a different strategy for the next test by selecting different type of questions to be attempted, omitting question types that posed problem in the previous test.
Take doubt-clearing sessions not only with the concerned CAT experts but also with your peers.
2. Preparation
Bear in mind that fifty per cent verbal questions are based on Reading Comprehension. And, there is no better way to gain confidence here than reading as many 'diversified topics' as possible, preferably with corresponding questions. In this respect, several hundred passages on 'highly diversified' topics are available free on TCYonline.com which can be of immense use.

3. Picking up Vocabulary
Vocabulary build up is very important for CAT. Now the question is how to improve on your vocabulary. Nobody can be a dictionary. There is a way to understand the flow of words. For example, try to link up the words with similar sounding words. Finding a 'common link' is important. At this stage, 15 minutes daily to do the root study of words would go a long way towards your goal.

4. Beef up your Grammar
Strengthening grammar is based on the application of your skills of written expression. If you can write an easy of 300-400 words, without any grammatical flaws, it means your basic grammar is good. At this stage the basic grammar rules should be quite familiar to you.

5. Classroom - Self study balance
Stop studying for new CAT concepts now. Stress more on doubt clearance. Never go to bed with doubts in your mind. That's another high-scoring secret.

6. Common mistakes
Students have misconceptions about options -- they go for the easy way out and ignore the process of elimination (POE). The right answer is never obvious -- the wrong one is on the platter. The student is tempted to catch the wrong one dished out. When you are on the look out for an easy way out, you fall into the trap. The best way is to predict the answer before going to the options. Try to practice the answers. Don't rush to answer the options. Look not for the right answer, but for the wrong answer to be eliminated.

7. Confidence boost
The time has come to boost your confidence levels. Up until now you were taking only the basic tests, below the CAT level. The Mock CATs bring you to the CAT level. From preliminary tests to mock tests, the score has to go down. To start with that may shake your confidence, but you should not worry. You ought to know that your score has only one way to go from here, and that is 'UP'. At this stage if you are disillusioned, you are gone.

So practice, revise, analyse and strategise.

Good luck!
