Strengthen the Foundation of the Previous Class

Class 11 syllabus contributes about 45% to both JEE and NEET. Therefore, it is important that you keep revising the concepts of class 11 from time to time. If some topics are missed or are weak, then take out time to strengthen them along with 12th studies.

Analyze the syllabus of class 12 in depth

The syllabus of class 12 is about 55% in both the exams. Therefore, its preparation should be done in a very systematic way. First of all see the complete syllabus, understand the chapter wise weightage and then make a monthly and weekly plan.

Make a time table and be disciplined

Study theory based subjects (like Biology or Chemistry) in the morning
Numerical or practice subjects (like Maths or Physics) in the afternoon and evening
At least 6-8 hours of quality study is necessary every day
Keep one day in a week for revision and tests

Making notes and revising them is mandatory

Make short notes, formula sheets and diagrams of every topic
Revise old notes once in 15 days
Diagrams in Biology and formula based revision in Physics-Maths is very important

Practice = Key to Success

Read and understand NCERT books completely (especially in NEET)
Solve MCQs and PYQs (Previous Year Questions) after every topic
It is necessary to understand as many varieties of questions as possible for JEE

Do not take test series and mock tests lightly

Give at least one full syllabus test every week
After the test, do a deep analysis of it – where did you go wrong, how to improve it
Estimate your ranking from All India Test Series and make a strategy for improvement

7. Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle and Mental Balance

Get enough sleep (6-7 hours)
Take a healthy diet, stay away from mobile
Do yoga or meditation to reduce stress
Keep yourself motivated from time to time – read the journey of a topper or watch a video

8. Maintain a Balance Between School, Coaching and Self-Study

Do not ignore school studies – board exams are also important
Maintain a balance between coaching topics and school syllabus
Self-study is the most effective – so take out at least 4-5 hours of time for it every day

9. Learn From Past Mistakes and Make a Strategy for the Future

Do not repeat the mistakes made in 11th
For example, if you did not revise, do regular revision from now on
If time management went wrong, then read from the time table now

10. Strategy for the Last Six Months

Revise the syllabus till now 2 times
Increase the number of mock tests
Make a separate list of topics that you get wrong in the test and revise them
Maintain a balance between both board exams and entrance

Final Words

Moving from class 11 to 12 is not just a class change, but a mental level jump. If you prepare with a right strategy, regular practice, time management and confidence, then topping JEE and NEET is not a difficult task. Success comes only to those who work hard in the right direction.
