JEE Main

Q 1: Congratulations on your performance in JEE Main 2022 exam! What was your reaction upon knowing your score?

Ans: I was extremely happy when I got to know my JEE results. I was not expecting this much percentile because of some questions in the Chemistry section but overall the result gave a relief.


Q2: Why do you want to study engineering? When did you decide to study engineering? Which branch would you be interested in? Any reason?

Ans: I found engineering quite interesting. I wanted to study artificial intelligence and robotics at a higher level. Currently, I am aiming for the IIT Bombay computer science & engineering branch. As AI and robotics are growing very rapidly in foreign countries, I want to work on the same in my country.


Q 3: When did you start your JEE Main preparation? Tell us something about your preparation strategy and daily routine for JEE Main?

Ans: I am studying in Narayana from 9th class. I started my JEE Main preparations 6 months ago. Narayana has provided us with the micro schedule which I followed to study effectively.


Q 4: Did you face any difficulties since the examination was conducted completely in computer-based mode?

Ans: My coaching institute has provided us with the portal where I have solved the JEE Main mock test to get familiar with the interface. It helped me at the time of appearing for the JEE Main 2022 exam.


Q 5: Did you take coaching for JEE Main and if yes from where? What are the benefits of coaching according to you?

Ans: Yes, I took coaching from Narayana. I was studying in Narayana from 9th class. I think it helps to get the right direction so as to prepare effectively for the JEE Main exam.


Q 6: Did you face any problems during the JEE Main examination? Which subject was the easiest and which was the toughest in JEE Main? What do you think is a tough thing to manage during the JEE Main exam?

Ans: For me Mathematics was the most challenging part. I used to study Math for 5-6 hours to get versed with the formula and important concepts. The Physics section was my strong part which gave me much confidence to score well.


Q 7: What do you think are the key factors behind your stupendous success in JEE Main?

Ans: the most important was daily practice of modules and NCERT books. Reading NCERT books thoroughly helps a lot to score well in the exam.


Q 8: You know you are an inspiration to thousands of students across the country. Do you have any message for future aspirants on tackling the JEE Main exam?

Ans: I just want to say that focus on NCERT books more and follow all the tips & tricks given by mentors. Do not take much stress just follow the schedule as provided by mentors.

Hello,

Yes, you may get a chance to correct it.
NTA usually opens a correction window before each session. In previous years, candidates were allowed to change their photo if it did not follow the guidelines, including background issues.

For JEE Main 2026 also, the correction window is expected. When it opens, you will be able to upload a proper photo with a plain white background.

What you should do now:

  • Keep checking your JEE Main login for any correction option.

  • Keep a correct photo ready (white background, clear image).

  • If NTA flags your photo, you can update it during the correction period.

So yes, you should get a chance to fix it once the correction window opens.

Hope it helps !

Hello,
The JEE main 2027 will include three subjects: Physics, chemistry and Mathematics.
PHYSICS:
Units and Measurements: kinematics, laws of motion, work, energy & power: rotational motion & moment of inertia: gravitation: properties of solids and fluids: thermodynamics: kinetic theory of gases: oscillations & waves: electrostatics: current electricity; magnetism & magnetic effects of current; electromagnetic induction & alternating current; optics; atoms and nuclei; modern physics topics.
CHEMISTRY:
Physical chemistry (basic concepts, mole concept, stoichiometry; atomic structure; chemical bonding; thermodynamics; equilibrium; chemical kinetics; solutions and chemical reactivity), inorganic chemistry (periodic table, classification of elements including p-, d-, f-block, coordination compounds), and organic chemistry including basics of hydrocarbons, organic compounds containing halogens/oxygen/nitrogen etc.
MATHEMATICS
Sets, relations & functions; complex numbers and quadratic equations; matrices and determinants; permutations & combinations; sequences & series; limits, continuity & differentiability; integral and differential calculus; coordinate geometry (lines, circles, conics); 3D geometry; vector algebra; trigonometry; statistics & probability.

Hope this helps you.

That's the most efficient approach to preparation! The entire JEE Main Syllabus is fundamentally based on the topics covered in the NCERT Class 11th and 12th textbooks for Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics.

Here's what you need to know:

  • NCERT is the Core: Approximately 60-70% of the JEE Main syllabus directly comes from the NCERT books. You must consider these textbooks as your foundation and cover every single topic and exercise.

  • Minor Overlaps/Additions: While most of the syllabus aligns, JEE Main sometimes includes a few concepts or deeper applications (especially in complex numbers, differential calculus, and some physics derivations) that extend slightly beyond the direct NCERT text, requiring extra practice.

  • Chemistry Exception: Physical and Inorganic Chemistry are almost 100% covered by NCERT. For Organic Chemistry, mastering the reactions and mechanisms taught in the NCERT is critical before moving to advanced texts.

You can download the PDF containing the complete, topic-wise JEE Main syllabus to cross-reference with your NCERT chapters here: https://engineering.careers360.com/download/ebooks/jee-main-syllabus . This linkage is your best study guide!

start by finishing the scoring topics in physics, chemistry and maths.. and revise them deeply through examples and pyqs.. spend 60% of ur time on topics that frequently appear in exam and the remaining 40% on weak areas.. give one mock test every week, analyze mistakes and create a revision book as well as formula book to keep revising the formulae and the mistakes.. plan ur schedule one week ahead and plan the concepts u want to study.. keep small milestones and reward urself constantly to maintain ur motivation.

‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌ In case you want to have access to the handwritten notes made by the JEE toppers, the most convenient manner is certainly by means of proper platforms which share the study material in a legal way. A good number of toppers have their notebooks uploaded on some educational apps or YouTube channels, and a few coaching institutes may offer compilation notes either for free or upon registration. Also, you can visit official JEE preparation forums where students share their handwritten notes for the convenience of others without any charges.

When you are downloading notes, it is always better to check if the source is trustworthy and the files are genuine because if you take the incomplete or incorrect notes, it will have an impact on your preparation. A more secure choice would be to look at the toppers' plans and brief notes that are written in the form of books or PDFs by the known coaching institutes. Never forget to combine such notes with the questions of previous years and mock tests so that your preparation will be complete. ‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌
