Understanding the IIT JEE Exam
Format of the Exam
The IIT JEE is divided into two parts: JEE Main and JEE Advanced.
- JEE Main: It is the first stage and consists of two papers: Paper 1 for B.E./B.Tech and Paper 2 for B.Arch/B.Planning. Paper 1 includes multiple-choice and numerical answer-type questions from Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics.
- JEE Advanced: Only those who clear the JEE Main are eligible for JEE Advanced. This exam is more rigorous and includes two papers, each with questions from Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. The questions test not only knowledge but also comprehension, reasoning, and analytical ability.

Self-Study: The Key to Success

- Utilizing Free Resources: I made extensive use of free online resources, including YouTube tutorials, free mock tests, and educational websites like Khan Academy and NPTEL.
- Daily Schedule: I created a disciplined daily routine, balancing my study hours, revision sessions, and practice tests.
- Library and School Resources: I frequently visited the local library and used school textbooks and reference materials.
