Different ways of preparing for JEE

I think you'll agree with me that getting into IIT's isn't that easy and you need a lot of hard-work.

Or is it ?

Well, it turns out that staying organized and knowing the right way of preparing can significantly boost your results. You're a future IITian and IITians work smart, not hard. I'm going to reveal all that to you very soon.
READ ON...


In today's world you've many options  (TOO MANY). Let's see how they compare against each other in detail, I've saved the best and an IITians Way exclusive for the last ☺.


OPTION 1 : Self Study

This method is best for super smart, studious students (really STUDIOUS). If you're the one who grasp anything written within seconds, be it difficult concepts or tentative calculations. Then, this is the best method for you and you can get even a SINGLE DIGIT RANK (One of my friends did just that). The foremost thing you'll need to know that this method requires you to invest at least 10-14 hours everyday.

OPTION 2 : Join Coaching

Many coaching institutes have made their presence across various cities across the nation, and it  is highly probable that you may find a handful of them in your city. Some of them are excellent, but most of them are average and suffer from poor quality teachers. Many a times, results shown are misleading. You may want to consult your seniors before joining one.
That's really CONFUSING, isn't it?
I've discussed all these and many more factors here.

OPTION 3 : Kota / Hyderabad

Do you believe that majority of selection comes from these educational hubs i.e Kota and Hyderabad? Probably, you're caught in the trap of advertising by coaching institutes.
Thinking that still why so many people go to these cities? That's because the faculties/teachers employed are exceptional, the result depends on students (It's completely your wish weather you want to study or not). It is safe to assume that almost 35-45% of the selections come from these cities.


OPTION 4 : Online Coaching

Actually, this is the most controversial and debated topics and guess what? I'll leave it to you as it totally depends on your personal preferences. It's really a nice idea to use technology in your favor PLUS(+) you get detailed analysis like how much time you spent on each question, your weak area's, etc. Sometimes, small text written on screen can get really painful. I personally doubt the quality of questions present as they are barely touch JEE Advanced level. Some places where you can get online coaching are Toppr, Embibe, etc.

Now, the Exclusive Option !

There is a company named Etoos which came to India in 2011, they hired the best faculty out there in Kota, and recorded their lectures. You might be knowing about this but may not be considering it as a viable option, because a very few people know about it, and only a handful of students prepare from it. Some of the teachers like N.V. Sir (Physics) and M.C. Sir (Maths) are simply mind blowing. It may prove to be really helpful if you live in a remote area or you don't consider leaving your home for preparing for JEE. You can find out more here.

No matter which platform you choose, you'll need to put some efforts from your side to make your dream come true. It's just that options like self-study, online coaching require more hard-work than others. I generally recommend starting JEE Preparation from class XI going forward with last option.

Etoos Video Lectures: Ultimate Self-Study Tool

Do you face difficulties in understanding concepts written in books? Do you live in a remote area, where there are no coaching classes available? Is it your dream to study from best faculty of Kota, without even going there? Would you like to study weak area’s of class XI again? This answer contains everything you need to know before investing a large amount of money in etoos video lectures. BUT WAIT, Why should you trust me? I have studied at Vibrant Academy in Kota. Because teachers here keep on changing institutes, I got a chance of studying from one of the best faculties of Etoos (MC Sir) in regular classroom. I found M.C. Sir to be best mathematics teacher in Vibrant Academy. I had myself Etoos lectures, as a substitute for poor teachers in my batch, or for revision purposes. My cousin cleared JEE Advanced 2017, and he used nothing except these lectures and the material provided. Whenever he had doubts, he used the amazing doubt clinic. Trust me, the is ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFE...

Books recommended by IITians for JEE Mains and Advanced

Do you want to know the best material out there? Can the books you study from really help you in getting an under 1000 ranks in JEE? Is it possible to secure a good rank just by reading books? It doesn't matter whether you are planning to prepare solely from books or you are taking coaching classes (as I did). Using the books I've listed will surely give you an edge over others. Let's find out...  Almost every book written for JEE claims to be the best book out there in the market. However, I DO NOT AGREE WITH THEM. It requires a lot of time, effort and dedication to completely solve a book. These books helped me in flying past the competition, unfortunately not all the books I owned have made it to the list. It's safe to assume that the books not mentioned here are not worth buying and we shouldn't waste any time on that.
