Hello

Here is the short guidance for you to score well and prepare for JEE

  • Stick to a smart routine – Prioritize high-weightage topics and revise daily with a focused timetable.

  • Solve PYQs & mock tests – Practice like it’s the real thing; analyze mistakes without panic.

  • Quality over quantity – Understand concepts deeply rather than rushing through chapters.

  • Stay healthy & rested – Your brain needs sleep, water, and breaks to perform at its best.

  • Trust your journey – Stay calm, believe in your preparation, and avoid comparing with others.

Hello

Since you’re reappearing for your Class 12 boards in 2026, that will be counted as your official passing year. So, you will be eligible to write JEE Advanced in 2026 and 2027. Although you submitted the boards in 2025, that attempt won’t be considered due to the compartment. JEE Advanced rules allow 2 attempts in 2 consecutive years after passing 12th. So you still have both chances left, which is great! Just make sure you meet the other eligibility conditions too. Keep your focus strong, you’ve got this!

Hello aspirant,

Like all competitive exams, JEE MAINS requires careful preparation and strategy to pass.  The JEE Main exam is extremely competitive, so it's critical to carefully plan and strategy.  Students can increase their speed, accuracy, and confidence by adhering to a systematic study schedule and practicing frequently.

Thank you

Hello aspirant,

Start with NCERT in every subject for JEE Main.  For physics, use H.C. Verma and D.C. Pandey; for chemistry, use R.C. Mukherjee and O.P. Tandon; and for mathematics, use R.D. Sharma or Cengage.  J.D. Lee assists with inorganic chemistry, while Morrison & Boyd assists with organic chemistry.  Practice chapter-by-chapter Arihant or MTG past year's papers.  For efficient preparation, concentrate on clear concepts, frequent revision, and passing practice exams.

Thank you

Hello,

Generally an income certificate isn't required for the JEE Main registration, but if you want to claim the EWS quota, then you need this. You must provide the certificate, issued by a government authority, as proof of your family's income being below the specified limit for the reservation category you wish to apply under.

I hope it will clear your query!!
