In this blog post, we cover many important points/challenges that students can and should overcome.

This post is to help state board students prepare for JEE.

Don’t get Demotivated by what People usually Say

If you are a state board student and giving the JEE, chances are high that people around you like teachers, parents, friends and even the media will talk about how the JEE exam is tough highly competitive and out of the bounds of State board students.

Well, all of it is just anxiety being blown out of proportion. These people need to realize the importance of a positive mindset for students. Alas! They don’t need to give the JEE.

Top Negative Points being told to you :

  1. Expensive Coaching is needed for JEE compulsorily. (Thousands of students enrol in such institutes, but only a handful get selected. Not all crack JEE, so it is not compulsory.)
  2. JEE is based on C.B.S.E. Syllabus, which would be difficult for State Students. (JEE is not based on CBSE. It is based on NCERT. Many state boards have adapted to NCERT as it is the national curriculum with no bias towards any board.)

Be away from these negative points and keep a positive mindset at all times.

The Perfect Combination of Books

The combination of books is very important for you to succeed in this exam. You need a textbook and a MCQ book for each subject.

The Best Combination of Books is N.C.E.R.T.(or textbook) + 1 Advanced Book.

You may also refer your state textbooks instead of N.C.E.R.T since they have adapted the N.C.E.R.T. curriculum. Your textbook is going to be your source of basics and your basics should be strong. So, you are going to use the textbook for strengthening your basics. For topics not included in your state textbook, use the internet.

The 1 Advanced Book in the above equation is a book that contains advanced-level problems for each subject. If you are confused about selecting a good book to complete the equation, we recommend you go through this blog, where we have chosen a single book for each subject to clear the confusion.
