4 tips and a "scolding" by IIT prof for JEE droppers

Playlist related to JEE/JOSAA counselling: • Advice related to JEE/...
There are some obvious mistakes which students make during the drop year that they take for JEE. In this video, I point out four of these mistakes and suggest easy ways to overcome them.
In the last part of the video, I spell out some strong words which I believe will help students to stop looking for external motivation and find inspiration within themselves to tackle the negativity and toxicity that they may be facing around them in their drop year.

1. For JEE Adv, leveling up step by step is especially very important. Foundations are very important, so build your basic concepts well, which makes you confident. You may accidentally be able to solve JEE Adv but would perform poorly in JEE Mains or other state level exams if your foundation is weak. 2. This is the last chance, so JEE Main is extremely important so that you can end up in a good college if Adv goes bad. Ensure you start with a backup plan. Ensure that the board level is something which you are absolutely confident at. 3. Some students have the tendency to stick with the topics they are good at for a subsequent amount of time, solving more and more complex problems from various different sources. Make sure you're not doing that mistake. Your mastery should be spread across all the chapters. Practice the topics you are strong at but don't spend all of your time in it. Coaching. First, understand the topics you are weak in. And after doing that, don't waste your time at the coaching institute re-learning the concepts you are already comfortable with. 4. The only thing which is a plus point about coaching institute are their mock tests. Give mocks regularly. Motivation shoulld come from the inside. It comes from the hard work we do.

Thank you for capturing and summarising all the points precisely. I am pinning this comment.

[@mkbharadwaj9007]

@@Ravi-lg8od I'd always say go with your interest. Follow prof JC advice. He said that try and explore career, job and research aspects in that specific field for example, Geology is all about studying landmasses and stuff. Don't underestimate it because drone companies need geologists because they're scanning the ground and try finding what's in it instead of mining. Geology can be used even to study other planets and moons and basically all celestial bodies. Geophysics and geochemistry is used the most

[@deepayanmandal2216]

ok sir

[@Ishqqterra]

Last portion of the lecture applies to all aspects of career and in life too. If you want something go get it yourself should be the mantra. Unless ownership of ones choices and decisions are taken,externals will be a source of motivation and also a dumping ground for blames. Thanks a lot Sir! very few genuinely point towards these aspects.

[@deepayanmandal2216]

Also, focusing on externals too much decreases our self-confidence.

[@gracy6910]

Thank you so much sir whatever you said in this video was very helpful and you gave me a clarity now. Sir I have one doubt please can you please solve it ?? My doubt is sometimes I don't understand a topic in my coaching so I watch that particular topic online cause I understand it much better from some other teachers teaching online . Also sometimes I watch online solutions too .My offline institute teachers always say that "online is a waste of time you shouldn't do anything online. Always blindly follow what we are asking you to do and telling you to do" .but sir I am totally opposite of this I am inclined more towards online studies cause I am a covid batch student and I have covered mostly of my syllabus from online teachers and that's why I feel more connected and comfortable at studying online but our teachers always scold us telling ki beta online jaa rahe ho na to barbbad ho ..Sir am I doing anything wrong in all this ? Then sir please guide me

[@khushijaiswal5340]

No u are not wrong even in my drop year teacher told me the same , to koi topic nhi smjh ata tha to ghato tak bheti rehti thi dc mai or kabhi kabhi waha bhi nhi ata tha smjh baad mai realize hua ki online delh lena chahia tha jin teacher se aata tha so the way u are studying is right bas coaching ke test shi se dena agr vo shi se nhi dia tab barbaad hoge Bcoz mere saath hua that's why giving my experience nd telling u don't did the mistake that i did😢😊

I have a question - What does IIT wants from the students? Also one more question I have is does IIT checks for students having high IQ level?

[@sundernarayan2643]

Your last part was very interesting. You are so right in saying that one needs to look within themselves for every emotion, be it motivation, peace, strength etc. However, on a lighter note, I keep making a joke that all of us are Hanumans. I generally narrate an incident from Ramayana. Hanuman had the curse that he cannot invoke his strength unless reminded by others and that is where Jambhvan came in. On a serious note, I felt this video had a connection to the previous one. Once you accept reality of the current situation, you will be in a far better position to deal with the situation and the shortcomings.
