I am getting a lot of messages from tensed students. Preparation not going as per plan. Scores not increasing. Scores fluctuating. Concentration wavering. Nervous in general.

Guys, please relax. This is just an exam. That's it.

It doesn't decide your worth. You do.

I understand there are hurdles. You thought it would be smooth. Expectation didn't match the reality.

So what??? This isn't the first time it has happened. This wouldn't be the last time either.

So take a deep breath. Relax. Give your best shot on 26th.

If it doesn't work out... well... let's try again next year.

Sincerely
Been there done that 😔

Profile of a 100%iler?

Anyone can be a 💯100%iler. There maybe one sitting next to you!

They may not have a 47th chromosome 🧬. They may not have been a topper 🏆 throughout their lives. They are just like you and I. They have their social 🎦media accounts and would have watched a plethora of web series🎬. And they might have continued to remain just ordinary, like the bulk of us.

However, they decided that it was high time to make a change. And they changed themselves. They reimagined themselves.

The real question here is DO YOU WANT AN ADMISSION IN A TOP B SCHOOL AND ARE YOU WILLING TO WORK FOR IT?

A 100 %iler has
1. A plan that needs to be followed diligently 📅
2. A dedication to stick to the plan despite numerous distractions 🎂🎦
3. A confidence to keep the morale up 😁
4. A courage to accept mistakes, rectify and then move on 🥉
5. A willingness to sacrifice and move out of their comfort zone 🎯

Not exactly "Rocket Science" is it? That's because it is not! The only thing between your current situation and your Dream B School is YOU! 🫵🏽

How to increase retention of mathematics concepts and formulae

1. Create a Solid Foundation: Ensure you have a strong foundation in the prerequisite math skills and concepts. If you struggle with algebra, for example, it will be challenging to retain more advanced concepts. Focus on reading and understanding any concept in a detailed manner.

2. Practice Regularly: Consistent practice is crucial for retaining math concepts and formulas. Solve a variety of problems related to the concept or formula you're trying to remember. The more you practice, the more ingrained the information becomes in your memory.

3. Visualize and repeatedly revise: Visual aids can help you remember formulas. Draw diagrams and charts to illustrate concepts and annotate them with the relevant formulas. Keep your math materials, notes, and formulas organized. Being able to find information quickly can make your study sessions more efficient.

4. Practice Problems of Varying Difficulty: Don't just stick to easy problems. Challenge yourself with problems of varying difficulty levels. Solving harder problems can deepen your understanding and improve retention. Try to incorporate some form of math practice into your daily routine, even if it's just a quick review or solving a few problems. Consistency is key.

5. Set Goals: Set clear goals for what you want to learn and achieve in mathematics. Having specific objectives can motivate you to study and retain information.

Everyone has a unique learning style

So, experiment with different strategies and adapt them to what works best for you. Combine multiple approaches and stay persistent in efforts.

I have received multiple requests for #VA / #RC #guidance. Now keep in mind that I am not a Verbal faculty, in fact as far away from it as possible. But this is what has always worked for me.

So, please read on with a pinch of salt!

1. Read books, newspapers, magazines, and online articles on a variety of topics. 📚📖

2. Highlight or underline key points, unfamiliar words, or phrases while reading. Take notes or jot down summaries of what you've read to reinforce your understanding. ✒️📙

3. Learn new words regularly. Keep a vocabulary journal and record unfamiliar words, their meanings, and example sentences. 📝📝

4. Summarize what you've read in your own words after each section or chapter. Try to predict what will happen next in a story. Identify the author's purpose, tone, and main arguments in non-fiction works. 📑🔖

5. Analyze and evaluate the information you read. Consider the author's bias, credibility, and potential agenda. 📑🔖

6. Sharing and listening to different interpretations can broaden your perspective. 👥

Be patient with yourself and stay persistent in your efforts. ANY skill takes time to build up! ⏰⏳

Continuously challenging yourself with diverse reading materials and practicing these strategies will help you enhance these skills over time. ⌚️🕰

I think I have mentioned the importance of mock 📝 analysis a lot of time⏱. I am attaching an outline for the broad pattern in which this analysis needs to happen.

Fill up this data for 3 - 4 mocks and that should give you an idea of what are your cash cows and pitfalls

This analysis will help you perform better at the mocks.
