Important Tips to Cover JEE Advanced Syllabus 2020 / 2021 for Chemistry
Here some tips to cover the longest syllabus of JEE Advanced exam efficiently:
By heart the Periodic Table
Before starting thesyllabus of Chemistry subject, ensure that you have learnt the periodic table and is familiar with all the elements listed on it.
Inorganic must be covered every day for 1 hour
The toppers suggest that the inorganic part of the syllabus must be covered each day. Otherwise, the syllabus cannot be covered efficiently and one or more topics are left at the end.
1 hour every day for Organic Chemistry Formulas and Reactions
By heart the important reactions. The name of the reactions must be on the tip of the tongue. Also, the candidates must not just by heart the important reactions, but also understand every aspect of forming a reaction. The exam may have unexpected questions that can be only solved by the students wh understand. Therefore organic chemistry formulas and reactions must be covered every day for 1 hour too.
Physical Chemistry must be understood
The physical part of the chemistry subject is not meant to be just learned. The concepts and theory of the topics in this section of the syllabus need understanding and grasp of concepts. The numerical part of this section can be only solved if the concepts are clear. Thus every day dedicate 1 hour for physical chemistry numerical too.
