When it comes to preparations for the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination (WBJEE),  for some candidates, the Joint Entrance Examination (Mains) is an additional exam that can help to obtain a place in some of the most prominent engineering colleges in the country.  Unlike the WBJEE, which concerns itself with the engineering colleges of West Bengal, the  JEE Mains has more sophisticated colleges such as the NITs (National Institute of  Technology), IIITs (Indian Institute of Information Technology), and other government technical institutions in different regions of the country. So this is an article on how to prepare for the JEE Mains exam along with the WBJEE.

Exam pattern and syllabus

Before getting into the preparation, it is important to have knowledge of the exam pattern and syllabus of both WBJEE and JEE Mains.

JEE Mains Exam Pattern: It comprises three subjects, which are physics,  chemistry, and mathematics, which has equal weight. There are 90 questions in total, with a maximum mark of 300. It’s a computer-based test (CBT) with multiple choice questions (MCQs) and questions that are numerical-based.

WBJEE Exam Pattern: Like JEE Mains, the subjects of physics, chemistry, and mathematics are also present in the WBJEE, but the marking system and the kind of questions asked vary slightly. Comprehending the distinctions will enhance your ability to prepare for both examinations simultaneously and effectively.

By following a sensible approach, one can prepare for both assessment modes. Below is the procedure for making a plan for studies that incorporates all preparation schedules.

Curriculum Overlap

• The best part is that the fundamental curriculum of WBJEE and JEE Mains is almost alike. The syllabus in JEE in terms of physics, chemistry, and math are nearly the same; therefore, one research work for both exams. These would be the areas of focus in the following studies in order to make use of time in the best possible manner.

Weightage Of The Topics In The Exams

• Prioritize Topics: A few topics have higher percentages in the score. For instance,  when it comes to JEE Mains, there are specific chapters on physics, such as Mechanics in Physics, Organic Chemistry in Chemistry, and Calculus in Maths, that are important. Likewise, in WBJEE, find out topics with high weightage and top them in this area.

JEE Mains Mock Tests Online

• Numerous websites offer mock tests for JEE Mains that are almost identical to the real exam. Endeavour to do at least one full mock-up test every week. 

• Revise Previous Year Exam Papers: Working on such previous years' JEE Mains and WBJEE papers will make you aware of the kind of questions you will encounter and where the related questions tend to fall. 

Concentrate on Time Management and Efficiency

Time management is an important factor in JEE Mains as well, which has 90 questions to answer in 3 hours. 

• Impose Time Restrictions: While practicing, impose time restrictions for every part in order to practice under examination conditions.

• Postpone Any Difficult Questions for the Time Being: During the exam, if you are unable to answer a question, move on to the next question to save time. You can always come back to it later.

Pattern of Examination in JEE Mains

• The examination consists of three sections: Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics,  each of which carries equal marks. A total of 90 questions are asked in this examination, which is a computer-based test (CBT) having separate maximum of 300 marks. It is computerized first, having multiple-choice questions and numerical questions.

• Exam Pattern of WBJEE: Even as JEE Mains consists of Physics, Chemistry, and  Math papers, so does the WBJEE; however, the marking scheme and the question types vary a bit. Knowing how they differ would be of assistance in helping you carry out preparations for the two exams concurrently in a more efficient manner.
