Hello,

Yes, you can start now and prepare for the January attempt of JEE Main . It will be challenging, but with focus and proper planning, it is possible.

Here’s what you can do:

  1. Make a study plan : Divide topics into daily and weekly targets. Focus more on important and high-weightage topics.

  2. Start with basics : Make sure your concepts in Physics, Chemistry, and Math are clear.

  3. Practice regularly : Solve previous year papers and mock tests to understand the exam pattern.

  4. Revise often : Keep revising formulas, important concepts, and tricky problems.

  5. Stay consistent : Even small daily progress is better than irregular study.

If you stay dedicated and follow a strict plan, you can be ready for January.

Hope it helps !

Hello Hitesh

  • A state EWS certificate is usually not valid for JEE Advanced or JoSAA counselling.

  • You’ll need an EWS certificate in the central government format, as required by IITs.

  • Even if issued by your local authority, it must clearly mention it’s as per Govt. of India norms.

  • You can visit your tahsildar/revenue office and request it in the “central format for JEE.”

  • Make sure the issue date is after April 1, 2025, for it to be valid in 2026 counselling.

  • You don’t need it at the time of JEE Main, only during Advanced registration and JoSAA.

  • You still have enough time to get it updated, so no stress, just don’t delay it too long.

Hello,

To get below AIR 100 in JEE Advanced 2027, you need a strong and focused plan. Here’s a simple guide:

  1. Clear Concepts : Make sure all NCERT basics are strong. Focus on Physics, Chemistry, and Maths concepts deeply.

  2. Advanced Practice : Solve previous years’ JEE Advanced papers and high-level questions from books like HC Verma, I.E. Irodov, OP Tandon, and Cengage.

  3. Regular Mock Tests : Take full-length tests every week. Analyse mistakes and improve weak areas.

  4. Time Management : Learn to solve questions quickly and accurately. Work on speed and accuracy together.

  5. Short Notes : Make notes/formulas for quick revision.

  6. Consistency : Study daily and avoid long breaks. Consistent practice is key.

  7. Focus on Weak Areas : Identify topics you struggle with and spend extra time on them.

  8. Stress Management : Stay healthy, sleep well, and avoid last-minute panic.

If you follow a structured plan and stay consistent, AIR below 100 is achievable.

Hope it helps !

You can attempt the JEE Advanced exam  maximum of two times in two consecutive years. This rule also applies if you did not take the exam in the year you completed your 12th grade. If you skip the first attempt in your 12th grade year, you can only appear for the exam once, in the following year (your drop year).
