JEE Mains Online exam 2018 countdown starts; just 48 hours to go now

JEE Mains Online Exam 2018: It's time for every student, who dreams of clearing the JEE exams, to get set as the countdown to the exam has started. This exam is the first step in the process of getting admission into the BTech programmes in IITs and NITs of India. The pressure must surely be rising in students to make last minute preparations for the upcoming Paper II of the exams. The JEE Main computer based (online) test will be conducted on April 15-16, 2018. This exam is of three-hour duration and how well you fare in it will determine your chances of earning a seat in an IIT or NIT of your choice. 

Here are a few tips on last-minute revisions and strategy that may come handy. The paper is online and will be different from the conventional paper-and-pen exams. So, before entering into the examination hall, be prepared to see it in a different form. It is going to a different world for many this time due to the presence of computers instead of a physical question paper and answer sheet.  

What should be done in these last few hours?

• Use Mock JEE papers that are available on JEE (Main) website for practice purpose and get an idea and feel of the Computer Based Examination (CBE). 
• While revising make sure that you don't get into stuck with a topic that has never been easy for you. Focus on your strengths and practice the segment that is known to you. 
• Pay attention to the options while answering the question as a slight mistake may lower your marks - focus must be deep. 
• Use your time wisely by tracking the number of questions that were attempted and unattempted by you. 
• Analyse previous year's question papers, which were presented during the era when exams were taken in paper form rather than the current form - the online version of the papers is most likely not going to be too different from its older conventional counterpart. 
• You will be provided with enough rough sheets to carry out calculations. Earlier, there was a limitation in place. 
• Last but not the least, be on time in the examination halls, eat light, drink enough water, but not too much, keep calm, and dress comfortably.
