Careers360: Did you take coaching for JEE Main and if yes from where? What are the benefits of coaching according to you?

Careers360: Tell us about your exam day. What was your exam date and shift? What was your question paper like? Did you have to face any technical glitches in your online exam?
Chirag Singh: So I took the exam on January 22 shift 1. The mathematics section was easy. Physics subject was overall easy but did have a few tricky questions. The chemistry part has a few difficult questions. No, I did not face any technical issues in the JEE Main exam.
Careers360: Tell us something about your preparation strategy and daily routine for JEE Main.
Chirag Singh: I did study for 7-8 hours regularly. However, my preparation strategy was not limited to any particular number of hours and work towards completing it. I would keep studying until I met the set target so my study hours would extend many times.
Careers360: What are some of the challenges you faced while preparing for JEE Mains?
Chirag Singh: Yes so there was one particular challenge that I faced during my JEE preparation. It was difficult to manage both school and JEE Mains preparation. I would then take my coaching homework to school and finish it during any free periods I would get.
Careers360: Did you face any difficulties since the examination was conducted completely in computer-based mode?
Chirag Singh: No. I practised multiple mock tests to get used to the format of the exam. So I did not face any issues.
Careers360: How did you de-stress yourself during the preparation? What are your hobbies? How often could you pursue them?
Chirag Singh: If I was stressed I would turn to talking to my friends. The best de-stressing activity for me is cycling.
Careers360: What was your parent's contribution during your JEE Mains exam preparation like?
Chirag Singh: My parents greatly contributed to my JEE Mains preparation. They ensured I had a healthy diet throughout and stayed healthy without having to miss out on any preparation days. They also ensured I remained disciplined.
Careers360: Mock tests and sample papers – how extensively did you practise with the help of these? Do you think practising from the previous year’s papers helps and how?
Chirag Singh: Yes I took more than 100 mock tests throughout my exam preparation. In the last month of my JEE preparation alone, I gave about 25-30 mock tests. My coaching also had regular tests series that I took.
Careers360: 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?
Chirag Singh: I would say listen to your teachers and believe in yourself. All those who want to ace this exam should understand the reason why they want to appear in it and clear it. If you do that then you can figure out how.
Careers360: Will you be appearing for the April session of JEE Main 2025 too?
Chirag Singh: Yes, I will be appearing in the JEE Main 2025 session 2 exam also.

Hello,
If you have 2 marksheet then you should upload improvement marksheet for filling out JEE form.
The improved one consider final and valid marksheet and it reflects upgraded and high marks and then keep both Marksheet safe as if they can be ask for verification
Thank you
Hello, Yes, this mismatch will absolutely cause a problem during your JEE Mains 2026 registration, but there is a clear solution.
You must enter your father's name "Girisharadya" (without the 'a') in the main application form, as it appears on your 10th-grade marksheet. The 10th marksheet is the primary, non-changeable document for all NTA applications.
When the system tries to verify this with your Aadhaar, it will detect a mismatch ("Girisharadya" vs. "Girisharadhya") and will show a pop-up warning. NTA has created a process for this: you will be given an option to enter your father's name as per your Aadhaar in a separate field. The system will then capture both spellings, allowing you to complete the registration.
However, since you have time before 2026, the safest and most highly recommended solution is to get your Aadhaar card (and your father's) corrected to match the spelling on your 10th marksheet ("Girisharadya"). This will prevent any confusion or problems later during JoSAA counselling and final document verification.
I hope you found this information helpful and for any study related queries you can ask in careers360 app, Have a great day!

Hello,
If you are currently studying in Class 12 and haven’t yet received your registration number or roll number from your board, you can leave that field blank or enter “NA” (Not Applicable) in the JEE Main application form.
Once your board issues the official registration or roll number, you don’t need to worry, NTA verifies your board details later during counselling or admission, not during registration.
So, do not enter random numbers, use “NA” or skip if optional.
Hope you understand.
Hello,
No, this small spelling difference will not cause major issues in JEE Main registration . But it’s better to keep your documents consistent to avoid any confusion during verification.
You can prepare an affidavit stating that both names, Girisharadhya and Girisharadya belong to the same person (your father). This is a valid and accepted method.
So yes, making an affidavit is perfectly fine and will solve the issue. Just keep a copy of it with you in case officials ask for clarification.
Hope it helps !
