  • Practice Mock Tests - Students are advised to use the JEE Main mock tests in order to practice what they have studied. This will also allow the students to have a clearer idea about the areas which they need to work on. Since the mock tests are a replica of the entrance examination, the candidates can use it to understand the exam pattern of JEE Main 2020. Along with the mock tests, the candidates can also solve the sample papers of JEE Main 2020.

  • Revision is Important: Since the postponement of JEE Main 2020 was a last minute announcement, most of the students must have been prepared for the examination. Therefore, the focus should be on revision. There are many advantages of revision. Students will be able to go through whatever they have studied earlier through revision and keep it fresh in their mind.

  • Health is Wealth - The most important thing during this time is to keep the health at its best. The students are advised to get enough sleep and eat in a healthy manner. Refrain from going out and make the best use of time during self isolation. To freshen the mind, the students can also indulge in recreational activities indoors between studies. Remember that if your health is not top notch then your exam will also be the same.

Stay safe and all the best!
