If Vickram Tripathi ever talks to you about JEE toppers, there is one word he will use: Focus.
“There is a difference in the way that toppers approach JEE,” says the director of KVN Classes, Punjabi Bagh Centre, Delhi.
Toppers focus on strengths
Toppers, according to Tripathi, will not waste time on areas that they are not sure of. “An ordinary student spends time on problems that they are not sure on,” explains Tripathi.
A bright student starts off with the areas they are strong at before they start with other sections. “This would have given them a boost in their confidence,” he says.
Toppers minimise negative marking
JEE (Advanced) has negative marking. Being a topper is about having a good strategy. “Minimising on negative marking is must for toppers as this is an area that you can score,” says Tripathi.
Toppers are comfortable
Of course, toppers would have spent the past two years preparing for JEE. “We’ve seen that it is those who stay calm and composed that come out on top,” says Ashwin Muralidharan, founder, JEE Funda, an initiative by IITians for students who are sitting for JEE.
“They have attempted numerous papers and answered so many questions that there is a comfort level,” adds Tripathi.
Toppers read the question
Even bright students lose marks if they do not read a question properly. “Never assume that a question asks for something. Be cautious and read the instructions. Do not panic. The paper is for three hours. Believe in yourself,” concludes Tripathi.
