Summary of “JEE Mains 2026: Last 60 Days Strategy to Score 99%ile+”
This video provides a detailed, strategic plan for JEE Mains aspirants to maximize their score and secure admission into IIT by effectively utilizing the last 60 days before the exam. The speaker emphasizes the importance of consistent effort, smart planning, and targeted practice aligned with the exam pattern.
Main Ideas and Lessons Conveyed
Importance of the Last 60 Days
- The final 60 days before JEE Mains (starting January 21) are crucial for converting years of preparation into a successful result.
- Many students either do not prepare properly or follow inefficient strategies during this period, leading to wasted efforts.
- Regardless of being a topper or average student, proper utilization of these 60 days is essential.
Assessment and Understanding the Exam Pattern
- Analyze last year’s JEE Mains papers to understand the pattern, chapter weightage, and conceptual focus before planning.
- Use available resources, such as videos on high-weightage chapters, to prioritize study topics.
- Keep JEE Advanced in mind as the ultimate goal; doing well in the Mains January attempt helps in April and Advanced.
Feasibility of Completing Syllabus and Preparation Tasks
- Completing the entire syllabus, making short notes, and giving enough mock tests is achievable in 60 days with daily consistency.
- The entire syllabus must be completed by mid-December (around December 20) to allow time for revision and polishing.
Detailed 60-Day Preparation Strategy (Divided into 3 Cycles)
Cycle 1: Day 1 to Day 40 – Syllabus Completion and Strengthening Weak Areas
- Finish the entire syllabus by December 20.
- Suggested daily time allocation:
- Physics: 3 hours (focus on weak topics + new topics)
- Chemistry: 4 hours (line-by-line NCERT study, no skipping)
- Maths: 3 hours (concept practice)
- Revision/Practice: 1 hour daily for revision sheets and error logging
- Create an error log to track repeated mistakes and review regularly.
- Prioritize chapters with high weightage and weak areas.
- Avoid spending time on theory of already strong chapters; focus on practicing questions instead.
- For unknown chapters, watch concise “one-shot” videos at faster speeds (1.5x or 2x) and then practice questions.
- Practice questions primarily from:
- Past 15 years’ JEE Mains previous year questions (PYQs)
- NCERT-based questions
Cycle 2: Day 41 to Day 50 – Master Core Chapters and Mock Tests
- Focus on taking as many mock tests as possible.
- Analyze each mock test thoroughly:
- Identify mistakes and weak topics.
- Avoid repeating the same mistakes in subsequent tests.
- Use the Patshala by Nova Test Series platform (patshalabynova.com):
- Tests aligned with JEE 2026 pattern.
- Option to take tests in 2 or 3 hours (recommend 2 hours to simulate exam pressure).
- Automatic SWOT analysis to identify strong and weak topics.
- Platform recommends targeted questions on weak topics for improvement.
- Ability to create sectional mock tests on specific topics.
- Access to live interactive doubt clearing sessions with the speaker and IIT team via Google Meet.
- Continue making formula sheets and short notes, especially for inorganic and rote learning chapters.
- Revise inorganic chemistry daily to retain memorization till exam day.
Cycle 3: Day 51 to Day 60 – Intensive Revision and Final Preparation
- Revise the entire syllabus at least twice using short notes and formula sheets.
- Take a full-length mock test every day simulating the JEE Mains exam environment.
- Continue reviewing the error log to avoid repeating mistakes.
- Focus on:
- Chemistry: Memorize every line of NCERT.
- Physics: Do not neglect Modern Physics; revise thoroughly as many questions come from NCERT.
- Prioritize NCERT in-text and exercise questions, especially in the last 10 days.
- Revise all chapters daily in portions rather than focusing on a single chapter for multiple days.
- Aim to build confidence and automatic recall of formulas and concepts during the exam.
- Use any leftover time as bonus but do not rely on it.
- Prepare for non-academic aspects later: sleep cycle, exam mindset, diet, question attempt strategies, etc., which will be covered in upcoming videos.
Additional Recommendations and Encouragement
- Be consistent daily and follow the plan strictly.
- Use the Patshala by Nova Test Series for mock tests and targeted practice to strengthen weak areas.
- Subscribe to the channel for upcoming videos covering exam mindset, health, and strategy tips.
- The speaker assures that if the plan is followed, no one can stop the aspirant from getting a good rank and entering IIT.
