⚠️ Class 11 WASTED? JEE 2028 COMEBACK ROADMAP 🔥 | IIT Delhi

Main Ideas and JEE 2028 Roadmap

1. Competition may increase, so focus on rank—not just percentile

Rohit argues that JEE competition could grow if NEET moves to computer-based testing, potentially drawing more candidates to JEE Main. He gives rough examples of candidate numbers and ranks as projections. His central point is that percentile alone does not tell the whole story: rank and available seats matter, and seat growth may not keep pace with the number of aspirants.

2. Don’t let anxiety make a backlog worse

For students whose Class 11 preparation is going badly, he advises against panicking or overthinking. Stress can lead to more confusion, unfinished backlogs, and poor performance in both school and JEE preparation.

His suggested approach is to study Class 11 systematically through a suitable dropper batch, where the syllabus is covered on a more condensed schedule. He estimates that a full Class 11 PCM review could take around three months in such a batch. He recommends this over trying to repair a large backlog using one-shot lectures alone.

3. If you’ve watched lectures but struggle with questions, practise problem-solving

Some students spend most of their time watching lectures and postpone DPPs or independent practice. They may then freeze when attempting mocks, PYQs, or harder problems.

His advice is to:

• Avoid getting distracted by the idea that a particular advanced book is essential.
• Work through questions alongside each chapter instead of leaving all practice until later.
• Use question-solving videos or channels when you don’t know how to begin a problem.
• Build your ability to approach questions instead of repeatedly switching between lectures and resources.

4. Use PYQs as a core practice resource

Rohit recommends making chapter-wise previous-year questions a major part of preparation.

• Aim for roughly 500 PYQs for a chapter if your understanding is at a reasonable level. He describes this as a substantial target that can cover several years of questions.
• He mentions Exam Goal as a place to practise PYQs online by topic or chapter, without buying a book.
• Complete a chapter’s question practice as the chapter is taught, rather than waiting until later.

5. If your preparation is going well, test yourself with Advanced questions

Students who are comfortable with their current studies can try JEE Advanced PYQs, particularly questions from the previous decade. This can help them judge whether their problem-solving skills are developing at an appropriate level.

However, Rohit cautions against jumping to Advanced questions before being able to handle JEE Main questions. In his view, Main questions tend to test direct theory or formula application, while Advanced questions require a different kind of reasoning. Strengthen your basic approach first.

6. Develop a logical approach to problem-solving

Rohit emphasizes learning how to analyse and approach a question, rather than spending a long time on it without a plan. He says that a stronger problem-solving method can help students progress to more difficult questions, including Olympiad-level ones.

7. Free materials and other resources

The presenter promotes free study materials on his WhatsApp channel, including short notes, sheets, flashcards, mind maps, and reference books. He also invites students to request question-solving support.
