WBJEE is a particularly competitive exam, yet with proper preparation, candidates may certainly ace WBJEE 2024. We have shared some WBJEE 2024 preparation tips to help applicants prepare for the test.

Here are some common WBJEE Preparation 2024 recommendations.

Create a plan and set goals: Having a realistic timetable with specific time slots for each topic will assist applicants in completing the syllabus on time. Set daily, weekly, and monthly goals as well.

Daily practice is essential for passing the WBJEE exam: Daily practice is required for all three WBJEE courses. As the Mathematics portion has the highest weightage, devote extra effort to it. Practicing improves both speed and accuracy.

Candidates should complete the whole WBJEE syllabus as soon as possible so that they have adequate time to revise and grasp the crucial parts.

Make time for revision: Candidates' WBJEE preparation is incomplete unless they make time for revision. Candidates who concentrate on learning new ideas and completing the curriculum will forget what they have previously done. As a result, individuals should revisit and practice the chapters and topics they completed a long time ago.

Take mock tests: After completing the entire syllabus, candidates should take WBJEE mock tests on a regular basis, analyze their performance, and work on their weaknesses and mistakes, such as chapters and concepts they got wrong, couldn't answer or took too long to solve, gaps in their time management and question selection skills, and so on. This will enhance their general test-taking method and raise their score.
