Confused? Well, prepare a schedule and stick to it. Candidates are advised to prepare a timetable for JEE Main in which they should divide the syllabus of Mathematics for each day. Try to complete one chapter in a day. Solve as many questions as you can and try to focus on weak points. Let your weak areas become your strong areas.
You must have heard that practice makes a man perfect. Well, practicing also makes a man perfect at solving mathematical problems. While revising maths, practicing more and more questions is the best way to boost your confidence. Therefore, it is advisable for each applicant to start solving more and more JEE Main 2026 sample papers. Solving the sample papers not only helps to understand the exact pattern of the paper but also helps to know the strengths and weaknesses. Moreover, prepare a handy note of the formula for quick revision. Make it a habit to practice solving past year papers and sample papers day ensures regular engagement with a variety of questions, thus preparing for all types of questions that may appear in JEE Main.
While revising any topic, having doubts is normal. There is a high chance that the candidate will get stuck with any topic or question. At that time, allow the internet to become your guide. It has answers to all the queries just like your teacher or a guide.
YES!! It is very clear that Mathematics is a calculation-based subject. Most of the questions on this subject are formula based. Therefore, it is advisable to start making a guide that contains all the important formulas. This way, candidates can go through the list of formulas every other day as the chances of forgetting any important formula are eliminated.
This is another important step to take care of while revising the subject. There is no doubt that you are missing out on any topic while preparing for any subject.

If you want the OBC-NCL quota, you must upload a valid OBC-NCL certificate.
The certificate should be issued by the government and must follow the latest format.
It should usually be issued on or after 1 April of the current admission year.
If you do not have a valid certificate, you will be treated as a General (Unreserved) candidate.
If you apply under General category, then no OBC certificate is needed.
Hope it helps !

Hello,
No, your form will not get rejected because of this.
If the Aadhaar number and personal details match , the photo on your old Aadhaar is not a problem . Many students use Aadhaar with an old photo, and NTA accepts it as long as the details are correct.
Since you have not done final submission yet , you can try once more to edit the Aadhaar number. If the portal still does not allow changes, just continue with the form. It will not cause rejection.
For the exam day, carry:
Your updated Aadhaar (new one)
The JEE admit card
This is enough. There is no risk of rejection.
Hope it helps !
