1.

Now that the new dates for JEE Main have been announced, what should be the preparation strategy
for students?

  As you got extra time, to effectively use it you should follow three points strategy plan:

a. Make a revision plan for all subject and adhere to it

b. Identify the weak topics in each subject and work on them

c. Try to give at least two JEE Main paper per week and analyze them for your mistakes

2. Students have around 2 month time to prepare, what should be the focus of study?

The focus of your study should be on your weak areas in each subject, to increase your question
solving speed with accuracy, to remove the mistakes which you commit during the exam. for example:
to give too much time to a particular question, to do calculation mistake etc. 

3. Suggest some good books for all three subjects

The following are some good books for preparing JEE Main/Advance:

Physics - VMC Module, Concepts of Physics by H.C. Verma, Problems in general Physics by I.E.
Irodov  

Chemistry – VMC Module, NCERT books, Organic Chemistry by Morrison & Boyd, Inorganic Chemistry
by J.D. Lee, Physical Chemistry by P. Bahadur

Mathematics – VMC Module, M.L. Khanna, TMH

4. Students are in lockdown and coaching institutes are closed. How should they prepare for the exam in
this situation?

Although coaching institutes are closed but your teachers are in your reach via phone call, whatsapp,
skype or zoom, you can contact them for clearing your doubts or get the right direction. Also some
institute are launching short term online crash course which can be opted for systematic revision and
testing.

5. Can online learning be as much effective in JEE preparation like offline classes?

Absolutely, Online learning can’t be substitute of offline classes but can be an effective supporting tool
in JEE preparation. Both have their pros & cons, I think in future the hybrid model which will combine
the best of two world will be more effective in JEE preparation.

6. Students might be facing hardship being continuous in home for 2 months and possibly more to come.
What is your advice to reduce stress or anxiety in this situation

We all are going through tough time due to covid-19, to reduce stress or anxiety in this situation I will
suggest you : 

a. Do some yoga, specially relaxation exercise for your eyes

b. Take short break during study

c. listen to spiritual music

 d. Be in touch with your teachers for moral support

7. Many students prepare for  other exams like BITSAT, VITEEE, SRMJEE. Give some advice to
accommodate preparation for these exams in between JEE Main preparation.

The syllabus of  BITSAT, VITEEE, SRMJEE or any other engineering exams is almost same as of JEE
Main, so when you are preparing for JEE Main these exams are also covered. But there is difference in
pattern ie number of question, level of difficulty and to adjust with this you should try some previous
year papers of these exams.
