If you're preparing for JEE Mains, it's smart to focus on high-weightage topics from both 11th and 12th. In Physics, give time to Thermodynamics, Current Electricity, and Modern Physics. For Maths, focus on Calculus, Vectors & 3D, and Probability—they often carry good marks. In Chemistry, master Organic Chemistry, Coordination Compounds, and Chemical Bonding. These topics are not just about scoring, but also concept-based, so practice well. Use NCERT for Chemistry—it’s gold. Solve previous year papers to spot patterns. And most importantly, stay consistent and don’t ignore your weak areas.

Open Letter to CBSE Chairperson
Date: 07/04/2015
To,
Dr. Satbir Bedi
Chairperson,
Central Board of Secondary Examination (CBSE)
Subject: Scheduling another test for distressed JEE Main applicants
 |
Dear Madam,
I write to you on behalf of thousands of JEE Main applicants who could not appear for the exam on April 4, 2015 due to various reasons including cases where your office sent them wrong address in their Admit Card.
You must be aware that hundreds of JEE Main 2015 applicants had been stranded due to floods in different regions of Jammu and Kashmir and as a result they could not appear for this coveted Engineering exam held across different States and Union Territories on April 4.
This has shattered their dream to get admission into prestigious IITs, NITs and many other top Engineering institutes in India which admit students through JEE Main only.
Careers360 counseling team has received many distressed calls from JEE Main applicants belonging to the Kashmir Valley. The candidates, however, seek information whether CBSE is going to schedule any alternative test once the floods recede in the state. They hope to get another chance by CBSE to appear for JEE Main, which they missed due to the natural calamity that has hit the state for the past few days.
Further, in separate cases, many candidates at different exam centres were denied entry just because they reached late by about 15 minutes. This also includes a few cases where candidates reached the center late due to wrong address mentioned in their admit card. This is definitely a mistake on the part of CBSE officials who released their admit cards.
Careers360 has spotted two candidates, at a centre in Vasant Kunj, New Delhi, who were not allowed to enter the exam venue on April 4. Later, we received many such calls on our counseling helpline. In the above mentioned case, both the candidates had wrong Pin Code mentioned in the Exam Centre address slot on their Admit Card. One of the candidates had incorrect address of the exam centre besides the wrong Pin Code. Due to an incorrect Pin Code mentioned in their Admit Card, both the candidates reached a different Kendriya Vidyalaya instead of the one where CBSE had actually scheduled their testing.
Admit Card image below shows the actual exam center against the wrong address marked in image below:
While we are highlighting just two instances here, there are several such unfortunate incidents that are going unnoticed. We believe that the candidates who could not appear in the exam due to such unwarranted last minute confusion must be given another chance to appear for the exam.
We also hope that giving such candidates another opportunity to appear for the JEE Main exam will be both logical and course-correction for CBSE. A fair chance given to these candidates will only enhance the credibility of CBSE as one of the most respected institutions which engages millions of students annually for their Senior Secondary, Higher Secondary and competitive entrance exam like JEE Main and AIPMT.
We look forward to an affirmative action on giving another chance to JEE Main applicants who could not appear for JEE Main on April 4.
