Solve 3 Math Test Papers Every Day: The only way to become an expert in JEE Mathematics paper is possible by practicing maximum number of mock or previous question papers every day. A minimum of 3 sets of Math question papers should be solved on a daily basis, to get a hang of the exam and question patterns. Remember the possibility of doing great, depends on the ability of solving math problems accurately. There is the age old saying - Practice Makes a Man Perfect, so practice, practice and practice, to score better in the Arithmetic paper. Mathematics Exam Day Tips: Students get all excited to solve all the Math questions one after another. This approach is perfect, if you are sure of answering all the questions correctly. However, this is not the general scenario, so it’s better to sort the math paper into levels - Easy, Medium and Difficult questions. Start with the Easy set of questions, then attempt the medium and finally go for the Difficult questions. Now you must be wondering how this helps? When you segregate questions as per difficulty level, you can solve and complete questions quickly. This approach gives you an opportunity to cover maximum number of questions in a short period of time. It also increases your chances of scoring higher and avoid negative markings in the JEE Math paper. Time Mismanagement: Time management is one of the most crucial factors which can impact your JEE score immensely. It’s essential that you solve maximum number of mathematical problems within 1 hour 20 minutes. Identifying and solving questions which are easy first, then going for the tougher ones, can help you score higher in the Joint Entrance Exam.
