The first and most important thing before starting the preparation is to know the syllabus for both the exams. Board exams cover only 12th standard syllabus, while JEE Main syllabus includes the syllabus of both Class 11th and 12th. Therefore, make sure aspirants are aware of the topics that they need to cover to score well. 

Knowing the syllabus in detail will help in the later stages, as they will be informed about the main content of the examination. Studying NCERT books thoroughly will help in preparation in the best way for both JEE Main and 12th Board exams. 

Thinking and Coming Up With Right Strategy 

To score well in both exams, it is crucial to have the right strategy. Planning the preparation tips right from the beginning is the correct step as it allows aspirants to move forward while giving them the chance to assess their progress. They will have to prepare a timetable and assign themselves a daily target. Divide the syllabus and allot specific timings per day for a subject. It is advised to divide the timings in such a way that at least some topics of each subject are covered per day. Devote the evenings for the 11th standard syllabus as it forms a part of the JEE Main syllabus. This strategy will also help to cover both the exams to a good extent. 

Get Hands-on Best Books 

Choose books wisely for preparation. Only refer to those books that are absolutely necessary for preparation. Do not waste time on books that they do not need or are recommended by others. The NCERT books are the base to build the concepts while other books can be used for JEE preparation. Ensure these books are on the lines of the JEE Main paper. 

Sample Papers, Question Bank and Mock Test 

'Practice maketh a person perfect'. This adage will hold true here as well. Aspirants must test themselves and their preparedness through the many JEE Main sample papers and mock tests available. What they gain from this is a sound knowledge of the exam pattern, improvisation in time management, in addition to a familiarity with the test environment.  Solving sample papers will let them know the areas where the mistakes are being made and rectification can be done so that it does not repeat in the final examination. Similarly, the mock test can also be solved for the same purpose. 

Short Notes and Revision 

While studying, aspirants will come across many terms and concepts which might be tough to grasp. Writing these terms and concepts in a small notebook along with their explanation will make it easier for them to go back and revise it. Flashcards can also be created for quick revision anytime and anywhere. A good strategy involves analysis and revision. They should be able to recall what they have studied. If aspirants can't, then they should improvise. 

Rome was not built in a day. Similarly, success has to be built in small measures. Do not get de-motivated as it leads to panic and anxiety. Believe in yourself as scoring well in both JEE Main and Class 12th is a herculean task. Remember to be healthy and well-fed. Sleep is also very important while studying.
