Hello Sirisha,

1.Have a practical study plan

2. Refer fewer books for theory. NCERT books are best for understanding theory. After that is done, move on to books like HC Verma for Physics, OP Tandon, P Bahadur for Chemistry and RD Sharma for Math.

3. Know your strenght and weakness

4. Try shortest approach for the MCQ's. You will have to solve 90 questions in 180 mins. You have 2 mins per question. Questions that involve calculations takes lot of time. But if you save half min in every question you will be able to solve more questions and in a bette fashion. You can attempt 5-6 questions correctly, which will increase your marks to 20-24 marks, this will improve your rank.

5. Practice previours years paper.

6. Use self taken notes to revise formulas and concepts.

7. Take JEE Mains Mock tests.
