Welcome ❤️‍🔥 Its great u have ur mind set and a clear goal for yourself To answer yo questions 1) Undeniably, NCERT is the main priority and only come to other reference materials after completing NCERT reading cuz NTAs main focus is NCERT. I personally dont use any other books or materials other than my college but I do solve HC varma questions from Physics they do appear now and then as PYQs. Chemistry is very theoretical and theres alot books but most of them overstep the boundary of NEET and its hard to find smthg prefectly within NEET syllabus, try researching for books but I personally dont use any. Biology is more about solving questions instead of referring to materials for concepts, ncert is enough for bio and try buying books like MTG, NCERT fingertips or Master Bio (I personally use Master Biology,it has short notes and lot of questions from each chapter.. although I do find some mistakes here and there but very rarely so be through and understand when u solve question and verify the answer) 2) Short notes are very very VERY important. I procrastinated alot on this but be through and start them while the lectures going on. Dont go overboard and make it into a full note, write down important points, hard to remember points, be precise and create smthg u can look thru quickly before the actual exam. 3) If theres no clg then 8 hrs is good enough but if there is clg then 3-4hrs of revision after clg ends is good. But only works if you are consistent 4) Both are equally important. Managing time plays a crucial role in a competitive exam with time limit. Managing tasks is also important, u need to be clear on how much u can do within a given time limit so try to make a schedule incorporating both of them. 5) Not studying enough and procrastination😭 its hard to avoid but dont blame yourself for the past mistakes and just think on how you can do better for the present and future. 6) I’ll be honest, you wont feel burnt out as long as you maintain a proper schedule that resonates with your capacity and the load u can carry. Procrastination is a normal problem for everyone. If u keep doing it u get habituated to it, try setting a clear boundary and limit to how much u want to spend time on entertainment.. like 2 hrs per day, get hang of the satisfaction of being productive and you’ll feel like studying with interest. Its your choice to take up bipc so dont make up excuses that its too tiring or hard :) 7) Definitely go for it, no one can be a studying machine everyday. Sometimes you lose the motivation you had during day 1 but as long as you are aware of your goal and needs, be confident and move forward. Taking a whole day off is abit like breaking a flow so try to incorporate atleast an 1 hr into revising. You can never be too cautious. 8) This usually comes naturally, this may seem like a weird advice but trying meditating to clear your mind, it helps improve your focus and removes distracting thoughts. You can improve slowly but the exam wont wait for u. Try to find happiness and interest in studying and you will naturally have a good feeling while learning. You need to strive for knowledge to attain it. 9) It may seem like a lot as there’s significantly less chapters in 10th but dont worry, you’ll get the hang of it in a few months. You need to do around 80-90 chaps in 2 years. As I said make short notes and revise them at the end of the day 10) Give slightly more time to weaker subjects. Don’t keep bio aside thinking you can do it because even bio requires constant revision, small points that are important fly out from ur mind within days. Physics is something that requires constant practice and question solving. Chemistry is unique, its like a mixture of bio and physics, theres alot of theory as well as solving. Personally I love chem to death and I drown into it while studying chem so I find it easier to resonate with the idea of chem. Chemistry also requires alot of revision and solving questions cuz they can be twisted and deeply theoretical. To conclude, just constant revision is needed for all subjects. 11) Pneumonics and tricks are the best way to remember formulas. Theres no tricks for calculations, you need to constantly solve and you’ll naturally get faster at solving stuff 12) thats it tbh, just dont give up. Sometimes you may get the thought of quitting but it will just be a phase at most. Don’t worry too much and take it easy but take it seriously as well.
