So, students can easily understand that they have to prepare hard to stand in the competition. Embibe brings candidate experts’ tips and toppers’ tricks to clear the exam. Read this article on JEE Main 2022 preparation to know the toppers’ tricks to avoid engineering entrance examination mistakes in Physics, Chemistry, and Maths.
Latest Updates:
June 21, 2022: The JEE Main admit card for Session 1 has been released on June 21, 2022.
June 16, 2022: As per the official notification, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has revised the dates for JEE Main 2022 session 1; the exam will be held from June 23 to 29, 2022.
June 01, 2022: The NTA opened the JEE Main Session 2 (July Session) registration window from June 1 to June 30, 2022.
Cracking a competitive exam like JEE Main is an intimidating job, but it is not impossible. The aspirants need to know how to begin their JEE Main preparation and what needs to be done.
JEE Main toppers sharing the success mantra suggest that the engineering exam preparation can be broken down into six stages as follows:
The toppers and exam experts suggest that engineering aspirants must familiarise themselves with the JEE Main 2022 syllabus. This examination strategy will help the candidates to understand the granularity of the examination. Therefore, they would know what portion of the JEE Main syllabus would be based on each of the Classes 11 and 12.
Therefore, segregating the syllabus of JEE Main 2022 between Class 11 and Class 12 will help them cover the most important chapters while leaving out the less important ones from both classes.
Moreover, according to exam experts, students appearing for both 12th class board exams and JEE Main 2022 should adopt this strategy to prepare for both exams simultaneously. Applying the same strategy, the Class 12th students could initially rigorously prepare those chapters common in JEE Main and Board exam, thereby saving a lot of time while they work on the remaining chapters. Exam experts have shared a tentative weightage of JEE Main 2022 important topics. Find the same in the table below:

While the aspirants have burnt the midnight oil during their preparation phase, they need to bring in their action on a decisive day, i.e., when they sit for attempting the real paper in the examination hall.
The exam experts advise maintaining the cool and avoiding being unnecessarily stressed out. As mentioned in the JEE Main 2022 hall ticket, the candidates need to check their allotted examination centre a day before the exam day. Further, they need to pack the essential items, including two copies of the printed admit card, handy, a night before the exam.
The toppers sharing their JEE Main exam day tricks told that stressing out at the last minute is always harmful, as you unnecessarily pressurise your brain, and there are chances that a test-taker can end up making mistakes in the most practised questions. Rather, the test takers should concentrate on revising the memorised concepts and remain satisfied with all that is retained for the exam.
Embibe provides candidates with India’s first personalised and score improvement testing platform. The platform has a unique AI-enabled tool to help exam aspirants like you with personal mentoring and overcome the challenges they face in scoring by showing where and how to improve.
To clear the JEE Main, solving the previous year’s papers must be a part of the candidate’s JEE Main 2022 preparation. It will help candidates get an idea and feel of the actual exam paper, adding a whole new dimension to JEE Main preparation 2022. Along with the JEE Main last year’s question papers, Embibe provides candidates with answer keys and solutions.

Candidates can check the list of top engineering colleges that accept JEE Main score, JEE Advanced score, and various other engineering entrance exam scores for admission.
Here are some of the most frequently asked questions pertaining to preparing for JEE Main 2022 exam effectively:
Ans: Yes, the NTA opened the JEE Main Session 2 (July Session) registration window from June 1. It will be open till June 30, 2022.
Ans: No, NCERT books are not sufficient for JEE Main 2022 preparation. Candidates must refer to other books and practice from previous year’s question papers and mock tests to prepare well for the exam.
Ans: Though it is very challenging to prepare for JEE Main in just one month, if candidates have a well-articulated plan and if they stick to the most effective exam-taking strategies, they are most likely to crack the test. They can also consider their previous plan of Class 12 examinations, and cover NCERTs and other reference books thoroughly, with a well-thought-out plan and dedication.
Ans: Yes, candidates can pay for both the JEE Main 2022 sessions together.
Ans: No, it is not necessary to take JEE Main 2022 mock tests every day. Since it is recommended to sit for a mock test for the full exam duration, it might become tedious for candidates to appear for a 3-hour mock test every day.
Regular mock tests will boost your confidence, so attempt the unlimited free JEE Mock Tests available on Embibe.
