JEE Main Important Chapters 2020
Let’s take a look at the JEE Main Important Chapters that you need to crack in order to ace the JEE Main 2020.
Embibe has broken down the JEE Main Important Chapters from the JEE Main syllabus into 4 different categories based on weightage and difficulty level.
JEE Main Important Chapters | Chapterwise Weightage And Difficulty Level
Embibe’s academic experts have divided the chapters based on the ‘weightage’ (importance to the exam) vs. the amount of input (the effort to learn and understand) required to master them.
|
High Weightage, Low Effort (Easy) These are the most important group of chapters. You must complete these chapters thoroughly |
High Weightage, High Effort (Hard) These are the second most important group of chapters. You will probably have to spend a lot of time on these chapters. |
|
Low Weightage, Low Effort (Easy) These are the chapters you can do only when you have time left after completing the first two. |
Low Weightage, High Effort (Hard) Forget these chapters! You don’t need to worry about them. Focus on the above three types of chapters instead. |
Tabulated below is a subjectwise break-down of the JEE Main Important Chapters:
