How to clear backlogs in jee preparation

The first and last suggestion I would give is never take backlog as big burden. Some of us loose interest in preparation just thinking about backlogs.

So what you can do is list the chapters which you have to cover and categorize them into two parts.

1. Have you read that chapter from somewhere like coaching or some lecture.

2. You have no idea what's there in that chapter.

This will give you a brief idea that where you actually stand.

Now coming to the main point how to clear backlogs from the list that you have made.

1. Make a short term goal of 3-4 days and Target a chapter. ( If you are someone who face difficulty on getting track I would suggest start with your favourite chapter). This can help you to save your time in long term.

2. Now let me take example of kinematics. So what u have to do is start with theory or video lectures if you are enrolled in some coaching. So if your chapter is in first category read theory, make concepts strong, if facing difficulty watch lecture of that specific topic. And those who are in second category watch lectures and make proper notes to revise in future. ( Those who are preparing online can prefer physics galaxy channel or Eduniti channel for Physics).

So start with some lecture, watch a topic or two as per the time you have. Let's say in 1.5 hrs you are able to complete some portion of it. Now read the theory of that portion from some text book. After that take out the practice sheet and solve easy questions on that topic.

3. Now I'm assuming that you have spent 2-3 hrs for two days on your theory part and if you are from second category you can spend a bit more time like 3 days.

4. Now comes the bit boring task but very useful. Make short notes of the chapters that u have completed as backlog. ( Read the blog, how to make short notes for making better short notes).

5. Now it's time for practice the questions on the concepts which u have completed.

Make sure u start with easy questions like first do mains level questions and slowly increase your standard to advanced level.

In order to practice all concepts try to do some mixed concepts questions to have better grasp of that chapter.

With this method you can spend 2-2.5 hrs everyday to complete your backlogs along with your other work.

6. Always try to revise the new things you learn. Our human mind works in this way only, the more you see something the more easier it becomes. You might not get the whole Rotational Motion in one go. But I'm sure after reading one you will have an idea about the things that happens in that.

Next time when you will revise it, you will find it easier. So there is no shame in revising things again and again. So even if you complete something, make sure you revisit it 4-5 times in a month to get in touch.

If you will follow this technique of short term goal, it will help u in a way that your time will not be wasting that much. U can cover chapter in every expects.

Bonus Tip: ''Overthinking is something that can make you more worse. Thinking about that how things would be done and doubting all the day blocks you from improving. Try to look up everyday as new opportunity to learn.

Doesn't matter how good or bad you are feeling, just give 2-3 hrs to your studies, like start with 1 hr learn something in a day, I mean just 3-4 pages of Ncert if you are not able to cover much, that will help you in the long term. So even if you haven't started anything, just start. Doing something is better than making things more worse by spending your time in random activities.''

Follow all the steps which I have mentioned try once and let me know the result in the comment section that it helped you or not.

Thankyou
