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

Rajit Gupta: I was enrolled in ALLEN’s regular classroom programme. While I was preparing for the JEE Mains 2025 session 1 exam my main focus was that I should not repeat the mistakes. I believe the foundation of subjects becomes strong only when mistakes are removed. I never strictly followed a schedule for studies because it creates an unnecessary pressure. So I used to study only when I felt like it, but for whatever time I studied, I used to study well. I used to study further in the topic only after clearing my doubts.

Rajit Gupta: Happiness is the key to my success. I try to remain happy in every situation.

Q: Were you confident about your performance after the test?

Rajit Gupta: Yes I was confident about my preparation. I had not even seen the answer key. My father told me to get the answer key once but I said, 'Papa, don't worry, I will qualify for Advanced'.

Hello,

You passed your Class 12 (Intermediate) from UP Board in 2024 .
As per JEE Advanced rules , a candidate can appear only in the year of Class 12 passing and the next consecutive year

  • Eligible years for you were 2024 and 2025

  • You already appeared in 2025

  • 2026 is not allowed

Your health issue does not change this rule.

You can still take JEE Main again in 2026 , but not JEE Advanced.

Hope it helps !

Cracking jee main in 15 days is a challenging task that depends heavily on your current level of preparation and how effectively you utilize the remaining time. the preparation strategy highlighted by experts suggests focusing on a high-yield revision plan that prioritizes the most important chapters in physics, chemistry, and mathematics rather than trying to learn new concepts. according to the insights from ramesh batlish of fiitjee, success in this short window requires a disciplined routine involving the solving of previous year question papers and taking full-length mock tests to build exam temperament and time management skills. prioritizing topics like coordinate geometry in maths, organic chemistry, and modern physics can help maximize your score as these often carry significant weightage. while it may not be enough to master the entire syllabus, a strategic and focused effort can certainly help you improve your percentile and secure a qualifying score. for a detailed day-wise plan and expert tips on managing the final two weeks, you can refer to the full article here: https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-2025-last-15-days-preparation-strategy-ramesh-batlish-managing-partner-and-head-fiitjee-noida
