It is not always necessary that you should join a coaching institute to do good in JEE.Coaching institutes will guide you in your preparation .If you have confidence & if you are determined ,do hard labour ,study properly with clarity of concepts,I don't think you need to attend any coaching institute .Take decision as per your need & requirement.

Concentrate on your studies and be motivated. For Preparation, **Plan your studies** Formulate a study plan.

Complete your syllabus with the help of NCERT books it will help you to clear your concepts and fundamentals. Apart from NCERT text books, refer to prescribed standard text books. * Physics- Concepts of Physics by H.C Verma * Mathematics- Problems Plus in IIT Mathematics by A Das Gupta * Chemistry- Arihant master resource book for JEE **Give mock tests** Solve previous years' papers and attend mock tests regularly. By giving mock tests, * You will get familiarized with the IIT JEE exam pattern * Helps you to manage time * Can improve your speed and accuracy * Helps you to understand the level of learning **Study techniques** Not only hard work, but smart work is also important when you prepare for IIT JEE .Follow study techniques which helps you to simplify the tough concept and helps you to remember the concepts better.
