I cant cram things and i just never score in the subject
What section of chemistry? I guess inorganic , physical and organic are kinda ok
thorking1234567899 [#4]What section of chemistry? I guess inorganic , physical and organic are kinda ok
Inorganic 😥
thorking1234567899 [#3]If you ask me , I'm preparing for JEE rn and my fav subjects are currently physics and maths , i dont hate chemistry , but inorganic has just started so yeah I'm doing it
You're in 11th probably then, physics get progressively more irritating
creampie [#8]Im doing 11th grade trigono rn im crying
Gets even shittier at the end of 11th. 12th maths is easy asf, especially the 2nd half you won't even realise and it'll be over
SiYK [#10]chem .... inorganic is hell
Inorganic is the easiest for me tbh, after that organic. Hate physical and 2nd half portion of 11th maths. Rest is fine
creampie [#8]Im doing 11th grade trigono rn im crying
Bro listen to me, I'm also in 11th,just believe me , my maths sir at coaching is so good, he says trigonometry isn't something you can learn altogether, you will get the command over it after some time, 1.5 months later i have gained control over trigo and i get the idea of how to get the approach for the question automatically after thinking for some time.

SnooTangerines [#18]Hindi is awful. My spelling really bad.
You're preaching to the choir mate, I took Hindi in 9th because I hated sanskrit and regretted it so bad during my boards. Took down my percentage by a lot, which doesnt really matter much in the long run but it was a shitty feeling for a 15yo seeing his fellow toppers get more marks just because of one terrible ass subject.
thorking1234567899 [#22]Yeah I'm in 11th
But the thing is that na , physics can be solved because there is a logic in everything and you can imagine in real life, but for chemistry it's just factual , but we will see as time goes on, there is a long journey

You will probably realise as I did that just because for the same thing that you just said, chemistry will seem much more simpler during your 12th. Everyone thinks the way you're doing rn in the beginning. There's a reason why pretty much teachers ask you to focus more on chem. You can retain facts during the exams, you won't be able to find the right logic for every question. When your mocks starts, it should become more clearer. Ofc you might be one of those students who are brilliant and find the correct way to solve the question the moment they see it but those are few in numbers.

Everyone in the sanskrit section got 80/80 till roll 27 in Sanskrit while I got 67/80 in hindi while being roll 1 (we were given roll numbers acc to our grades in the previous class). Sanskrit maybe terrible but it's easy asf to score in
creampie [#29]Its everyones fav im just too dumb ig uh
No i think I am the exception here cause everyone literally hates inorganic chemistry
GreyDaze [#31]I have a pretty good memory power so I studied chemistry the least. And I hated physics and none of the concepts ever got through to me so not even they. So i'd say math was the one I studied the most since it's the most scoring subject of em all
Chemistry is easily the most scoring subject in JEE lol, especially in Mains. Infacts Maths is the subject in which most students score the lowest, physics the 2nd and then chem so you're factually incorrect.

Sounds awful though tbh 10th board is just a joke getting 100% in most subjects is quite trivial. The thing I hate about language subjects is that no matter what you write teachers always deduct marks Which is the only reason that your percentage goes down. In my case, it was worse in Hindi since I could never (since 1st grade to 10th) understand the difference between small and large vowels sounds and when to use them and teachers deducted 1/2 marks for every spelling mistake.
I heard Sanskrit papers are mostly fill in the blank/objective type papers. Maybe that's why its possible to score 100%.
wizardbot [#49]Damn cutoff fucked then? You'd have gotten a decent IIT otherwise
There is an individual cutoff for all subjects.
And tbh if you cannot score more than 2 marks in maths, good luck in IIT anyways. You will probably fail every single course except maybe the humanities electives (which are in 2nd and 3rd years if you reach there).

Is there any forum or group where people discuss about this exam but in english?? Im currently applying for an exam thats kind of a JEE from brazil(IME and ITA) and most of the times we use problems for all around the world .

JEE AND IIT JEE are just the same, JEE is a test for qualification to IIT, which are the top engineering institutes in India

IMO it's not worth it. He would be getting a decent college like DTU with CS (or related subjects) from JEE mains. Enjoy college life and prepare for placements. After 161 marks you don't improve a lot. And all that just to get into a branch like Civil Eng/Materials Eng in these good IITs 🤢.
Unfortunately, ppl don't get this anyways best of luck to him IG.

uhhh, I mean ofc people in India are going to talk in Hindi so YT channels are gonna teach in Hindi (even though the questions are in English). They will even write down the explanation in English. 99% of the JEE books and study material is also in English. The same goes for chat apps. When talking about forums I mean forums on the internet where you ask your doubts/share details.
If you ask a question in English, the solution or discussion will always be in English.
If you do want to discuss something with the Hindi-speaking population though, here's a trick -
Ask whatever you want in English and if anyone replies in Hindi just mention that you are from South India and you can't speak Hindi.

BTW can you clarify which JEE do you mean?
IIT JEE has two stages Mains and Advanced.
Mains is easier and gets you into 99% of the colleges in India.
Adv is much tougher and is only for admission into IITs and a handful of other colleges. Most people in India don't prepare for Adv they only do so for Mains.
If you claim that some questions are from JEE, then I think it must be from JEE Mains and not JEE Adv. In that case I suggest you to religiously avoid any content related to JEE Advanced as it will just waste your time solving those questions.

Never use these "tricks" to solve problems.
Its a side product of these scam coaching centers in India to help dumb students solve tough problems just by identifying the problem (and it fails 70% of the time, for the other 30% it works, you used 0% of your brain). You learn Jack shit by solving problems with "tricks".
Any good teacher/coaching institute is always against these tricks. My teachers personally asked us to solve the problem completely. Ofc its quite prevalent in India and a lot of students use them. If you see any solution using these "tricks" be assured that none of these "tricks" are taught in Brazil or anywhere apart from India and you will probably never need them.

You might want to improve your SAT score. 1540 is good if you were a US citizen. To move to an ivy league or even Georgia Tech from India 1600 was quite common (at least around 2018-2019 when I was in 11th grade).
Altho you did mention chemistry which might be more lenient with your SAT score.

2 hours per day cycling subjects is enough to get you a rank between 2K-5K. Anything more than that and you will be pushing for the top 1000 ranks.
People don't study that much. You just have to be consistent. Just sitting on the table stuck on 1 problem for 12 hours is not 12 hours of study (which most people do).

Yes, it was during my time as well? (If I remember correctly)
My classmate who got into Georgia Tech (rejected by Ivy leagues) had a score of 1600. His essays and other introductory stuff was pretty good and miles above the Indian average as well. For those who got into ivy leagues, you will not only require an SAT score of 1600 but also some extra work or achievements like JEE Adv/NTSE/KVPY/Olympiads/community service/Extracurricular achievements or something similar.
Not to demoralize you or anything but the competition to get into foreign universities is even higher than that to get into IIT. Unless your dad can fund Harvard or something.
SAT is such an easy test that making a mistake in any of the STEM sections is just dumb. The only place you can make a mistake (which I made too) was the reading section. But you can give SAT multiple times to improve your score. In my class, anyone who did not score 1600 just did not bother applying.

oh , i just like to solve math problems , and JEE exams looks like the exam im applying in Brazil . Whenever im tired of trying to solve problems from Harvar-Mit tournment , IMC , IMO , ELMO and all the others around the world . I prefer to look for something more "realistic" , i mean sometimes IME or ITA just copy and paste some questions of their PHASE 1 or 2 ,from JEE (both advenced and mains) and other Olympiads . When it comes to math i always use the Advanced (unless it has calculus) but i also use the main when im studying something new.
If u are interested on the exams im applying for :
IME - Instituto Militar de Engenharia - army military institute
ITA - Instituto Tecnológico da Aeronáutica -aeronautical engineering institute
EN - Escola Naval - Navy School
Here are the links if u want to see their exams(IME and ITA) this is the link https://fbcomenta.fariasbrito.com.br
Phase 1 - Depending on the year can be really easy or really tough (for both IME and ITA)
Phase 2 - Always tough
IME--> Phase 2 has a pretty high level on all Exact Sciences and essay . But they are famous for having a really tough MATH exam on PHASE 2 (The only student who got almost 10( got 9,1) , was Gold medal on IMO )
ITA --> Just like IME , but there math are little bit more easy on the other had they have an extremely dificulty Physics exam (especially 2014 exam)
"Objetiva" means u have to mark option
"Discursiva" means discursive
Curious Fact : ITA was created when americans came to Brasil and wanted to creat an institute similar to MIT , therefore IME was created by our army trying to create something more original but on the same level
