Analysis of “So How Many Hours Should I Study”
By admin | November 22, 2007
I must admit that Vikram(s) reply to this question have been insightful and interesting. Most of you properly understood the hidden question. Your comments ranged from dazzling to confusing to funny. Overall I was excited to read each of your comments and I thank you for your inputs.
As I am writing this blog and looking at my document, I feel that to do justice to the whole thread its better I break it into two parts.
In this part (PART 1) I will only restrict to giving you the idea behind the question and my few cents on the comments you have sent.
In the next part (PART 2), which I shall be able to post after about a week, I will introduce to you my Iron-Furnace analogy, which will give some methods to fine tune things so that you can study as many hours that can get your result.
However, I will start off by commenting on some important questions.
What has car driving got to do with your JEE prepration.
The main thing to notice is that Driving and Studying are essentially similar, because both of them are afterall, a human learning process. Extending further, both of these processes are governed and limited by how nature has designed our brain and how neurons learn.
I think this also answers what pkc has raised in his comments to my earlier post.
Where did the time-work maths Fail
Time work maths appears to have failed because most of you felt that the amount of learning would not be the same if one drives all of it in one days versus one learns a little for a number of days. So learning and recall is not same in “30min X 16days” and “8hours X 1 day”.
Quality of learning is a non-linear function that comprises of, but not limited by:
- Concentration Span
- Revision (Bharath Narayan’s comment)
- Self Confidence (subrahmanyam’s / Sai Krishna’s comment)
- Hours of Study
- Number of days studied (Ajit’s comment)
- Frame of mind
- + many more such factors
The learning equation is much more complicated and hence please observe for a moment “so how many hours should I study” is pretty much a shallow question to ask. The question that one should really ask is “so how should I study for a quality learning”.
So please, dont seek for the MAGIC CONSTANT known as “NUMBER OF HOURS”, abiding to which your life will change and the gates of IIT will open up wide for you.
Rimjhim has captured this point aptly in her comments to my earlier post.
Taking the driving example further its like asking at what speed should I drive. Lets say topacify you if someone gives you a magic constant of 40km/hour and you start to drive ONLY at 40km/hour without taking traffic congestion, red light, highway traffic into consequence then most often you would land up crushing someone, getting fined for crossing the red light or crashing.
More Reflection
As explicated earlier, the intention is not to give the correct answer, but to give a
correct analysis against which you can understand what to fine tune or correct.
I knew that most of the people will say leanring 8 hours on one day is a bad idea, but I also knew that there will be some people who will be on the other side of the court and will say that it might actually be a good idea. That is what is the beauty of the question and it requires some amout of mental maturity to appreciate it.
It all depends on what works out best for you and you would have to experiment everyday to figure out, in fact there are days when its good to not study for too long and there are days where burning midnight oil.
Comments on Comments
Lakshya brought in a very good point about “familiarity and experience” aiding the learning process. As I will bring out more in part-2 of the blog, but as a preview brain’s neural network gets attaracted to familiarity or “patterns”.
Nikki’s comment also bring out one point that its not just concious but also subconsious brain. So it really makes a good case for blogging about how brain operates…dont worry i would NOT junk you with needless medical information in my next blog
Gaurav, has done some lateral thinking and suggested to learn driving for 8 hours in one day but then has asked to learn further driving on one’s own car - thanks Gaurav for sure I will do that, but sorry you missed the hidden point
Pradeep Chhikara, thanks for your appreciation.
Neha Tomar has put forward her points very crisply, her comment “learning is no one night stand” might hit a bit hard but leave the point very clearly.
Last but not the least, let me applaud comments by Rimjhim, her comments hit the question most directly and she has also explained her answer picturously by giving another time-work example - good job Rimjhim.
—
Thats for this part of the blog, in the next part, I will introduce you to the IRON-FURNACE analogy and other methods which may help you fine tune your learning and performance.

So How Many Hours Should I Study [The Question]
By admin | October 22, 2007
“So How many hours should I study“, is one of the classic question that has been asked time and again.
The most interesting thing is that, there is no standard or correct answer to this question - and no wonder this is what is the innate characteristic of the “classic question” [wave/particle duality for example!!]. Since they cannot be answered in one-fits-all fashion so they remain like classic questions forever.
In my counselling session with IIT aspirants this question is one of the most asked question.
I have been mulling over this question for quite sometime and have come up with few points, but before that let me play to you a personal story. Just like in Vikram-Betal fable, I (Betal) would recite a story and finally challenging you (Vikram) with a question which you have to crack….
Ok so here we go….
I was planning to buy a car, but the problem was that I did not know how to drive. I checked around in Koramangala (a place in Bangalore) to find out a good Car Driving School. One of my friend, pointed me to this “Santro Driving School“.
I went to this school and asked them to train me how to drive. The teacher there told me that “I will teach you for 16 days” and you have come for 1/2 hour everyday at 6:30 in the morning”.
I said fine and enrolled myself into the the car training class. I went to the class religiously for 16 days, putting 1/2 hours everyday and to my satisfaction was able to drive with confidence in the stipulated time.
One the last day of my class, while coming back in a jolly mood, I asked myself “I had put 1/2 hour for 16 days, so does that mean, using simple time-work maths, I could have learnt equally well by JUST going for 1 day and driving for 8 hours in that day ???”
:::::Now my dear “Vikram”, answer me this :::::
- Do you think learning would my car driving have been at the same level, had I gone for 8 hours for only 1 day.
- If you answer “Yes”, please explain why.
- If you answer “No”, then please explain where did our “time and work” mathematics go wrong, that we religiously studied in our class 7th/8th.
CLUE : “Even when I was not driving I was actually learning how to drive !!!!!”
Let me see what Vikram, inside you have to say.

Interview of Arvind Sarraf AIR 1 in 1997
By admin | October 6, 2007
Q. Arvind, how you used to relax you after continuous study for long periods?
”Walking around in fresh air…..”
Q. What were the things you used to keep in mind before taking any exam?
I used to formulate a strategy of order of solving problems - What level of hardness of problems I should start with and how to schedule them. Also an attempt to analyse all previous exam papers and keep track of silly mistakes one is likely to commit…
Q. What mistakes you commited during your prepartion?
A.
1. Related to course : During earlier stages of prepartion, I tried to flood myself with lot of problems from lots of sources without even having my basic concepts clear.Clarity of concepts is absolutely important before solving problems.
2. Related to exams: Must go into exams after proper rest.
3. Related to revision: Trying to cover a lot of new material & ignoring those done long time ago.
Q. What is your view regarding revision… By what time students should be able to finish their prepartion and should start revision ?
A. I think revision is best done by taking a mix of new or untried( by self) problems from all topics of a subject and working them in timed exam like condition. In my opinion there need not be any hurry for starting revision, whenever started, the entire subject should have been completed.
Q. How many hours you think one should devote daily for prepartion ?
A. I won’t like to suggest number of daily hours of study -as long as one is gaining enough confidence in solving problems.
Q. What was your idea about IIT before entering and what is your idea about it now ?
A. There is too much of hype surrounding IIT and IITians , in my case, all after all are human beings.
Q. When exactly you had started your prepartion ?
A. Soon after my class X examinations.
Q. Any thing you want to share from yourside that you think would be helpful for students preparing for IIT ?
A. Before jumping to problems ,pay full emphasis on concepts. Emphasis must be given to mock examinations to develop proper paper tackling approach.
Q. Which books you consider are must for prepartion ?
A.
1. Mathematics
a. S L Loney -trignometry & coordinate geometry
b. TMH- IIT Mathematics(esp algebra)
c. M L Khanna -IIT Mathematics
2. Physics
a.Concepts of Physics(H C Verma)
b.Problems in Physics (Abhay Kumar Singh) (the problems need to be selected)
c.IIT Physics - Oswal Publishers (for problems)
d.Resnick & Haliday ( for conceptual clarification in some topics)
3. Chemistry
a.IIT Chemistry -O P Agarwal
b.Schaum’s series -Organic Chemistry
c.Solamons(don’t remember book name) (for organic chemistry)
Q. Any comment regarding the various correspondence coaching materials available ?
A.
a. Brilliants Y G Files for years 1989-1993
b. FITJEE GMP package
c. Apex Academy (esp mathematics)
Thank you Arvind!

Strategy #4 : How to keep ourself motivated
By admin | October 3, 2007
What is motivation
Motivation is an inner state of need or desire that activates an individual to do something that will satisfy that need or desire. Because motivations derive from need or desires internal to the individual, others cannot “motivate” an individual but must manipulate environmental variables that may result in an increase or decrease of motivation, there should be a motivational strategy.
(unless you are an expert in behavioral sciences, we will request you to read the above definition thrice and try to pay special emphasis on the underlined text .THE ABOVE DEFINITION HAS SOME HIDDEN SUCCESS FORMULA)
The main point is that we actually require a “motivational strategy” to keep us motivated!
The primary purpose of motivation strategies is to develop an inner desire for beginning or completing an activity.Some of them are discussed here.
Most of the people are very motivated when they start their preparation but only few manage to maintain that motivation till the end , and those few are the one who are successful in there dreams , and in JEE’s perspective they are the one who manage to bag high ranks.
We have discussed this under these points:——
1 DESIRE TO LEARN
To improve one’s chances of academic success, develop a driving motive or an intense desire to learn. The following strategies may help you to accomplish this.
* Identify ambitions and goals for the long-term and short-term that can be fulfilled through success in school and coaching - It is said that “desire to learn” gives “success” and “success” gives “desire to learn”…hummh so it sounds circular!! but once you get into this circle nothing can stop you from achieving what you want .Well you might have heard the great saying that “nothing succeeds like success” that means that it is important for one to get some success to achieve more of it.
Now lets land our plane to ground and tell you in simple words what this point means.Well deciding short term plan calls for daily and weekly planning these plans are the most effective because they are more realisable as compared to long-term plan , so you guys should plan on daily and weekly basis .You should make achievable short plans like-” completing 25 questions on determinants this tuesday evening , revising volumetric chemistry on monday,”etc.Remember that simply making plan and not completing them on time is the biggest fault that most of us commit , completing targets on time is another definition of success, and these type of small successes give birth to bigger ones .We will elaborate more on this in our “short term plan” article.
Now lets see how long term plans are useful , rather we should discuss what happens to a person who fails to make long term plans:-
~ You suddenly find shortage of time when your exams and tests are close by and you have no alternative
~ You are not able to revise and give the required “final touch”
We will give you tricks and outlines for desigining good long tern plans in our soon to come article “long term plans”
* Develop a realistic plan for your life.
* Picture yourself being successful.
* Read biographies of people who succeeded despite adverse conditions(interviews of sucessful IITians too!!)
Registered members can request more information on this topic
2. CHANGING ATTITUDES
Attitudes greatly influence motivation. Poor attitudes about tasks often translate into lack of motivation. Similarly, positive attitudes usually enhance motivation. Happily, attitudes are plastic and malleable; they can be changed !!
Registered members can request more information on this topic
3 PERSONAL GOAL CHART
The personal goal chart is a strategy for setting realistic goals for studying and carefully evaluating the ways by which those goals will be achieved. It takes into account one’s motivations for fulfilling particular goals.
This method of personal goal chart is used by me(Vaibhav) and Prasoon , and we find it superuseful!
Details of how to make personal goal chart will be provided to our interested registered members.
4 MOTIVATION AND CLASS ATTENDANCE
It is sometimes difficult to get motivated to attend class when one is tired, when one is uninterested in the course, or when one has an early class and isn’t a morning person. The following strategies may help one to get motivated to attend class.
More informations on these points will be provided to our interested registered members
5 KNOWLEDGE OF EVALUATION RESULTS
One of the most neglected areas of motivation intervention is precise knowledge of evaluation results. A common student question is “How am I doing?” Students need to understand clearly and precisely how evaluations were determined and why they received a particular score.One should explain what was done well on an assignment and
what is needed for improvement and this is where coaching and test-series play a significant role.
More informations on these points will be provided to our interested registered members
6 SELF-TALK
Self-talk refers to the process of bringing our attitudes to a conscious level. It is what we say to ourselves and it reflects ourself-esteem. Self-talk can be negative, positive, or neutral. Learning to engage in encouraging self-talk is an effective motivating strategy. An individual must be his/her own best friend, and to do soinvolves recognizing one’s assets and reminding oneself of them.
suggestions for implementing positive self-talk will be provided to our registered members
7 SUPPORT SYSTEMS
Sometimes people can’t seem to motivate themselves on their own. Atother times, self-motivated people falter and need help getting back on track. Establish a motivational support system at home, at school, and at work. The support system may be as simple as a “buddy system” with a reliable friend or colleague. It may be more complex, encompassing a number of individuals from different aspects of one’s life to whom one turns in different situations.
People in the support system may be sources of motivational strategies or they may be role models. Check the following sources for motivational support.
* family members
* guidance counselors or advisors
* coaches
* faculty members
* class mates
* peer or professional tutors
* religious leaders
* friends
How each of the “support system” can be used to your favour will be taught to our interested registered members
8 HEALTH CONCERNS
Achieving and maintaining high levels of motivation are difficult if an individual is in poor physical or mental health. It is important that one get adequate rest, exercise, and nutrition. Mental health must be monitored to avoid excessive stress, anxiety, or depression. Individuals can learn relaxation and coping techniques.This aspect is important and is not written with an intention to simply increase the list !
We will tell our registered members as to how he should relax properly so that he feels energetic

Strategy #3 : “The Hall Effect”
By admin | October 3, 2007
THE “HALL EFFECT”
Last few weeks and ofcourse the examination day and the night before has a determining effect on your JEE performance.This analysis focusses upon various factors that effect your performance on the examination day.Read the given description carefully ,it contains 7 blunders which one commits on the examination day, try to spot them.
Its the day of your exam you wake up in the morning and reach for your notes to revise a few points quickly.There is lot of activity seen at your home , your parents are looking as much corncerned as you .You can very well hear your heart beating and you are in a very serious and nononsense mood.Your are keeping a note of your examination time .Now you are ready and your mother comes and puts a ‘teekaa’ on your forehead , she says “son this is a very decisive day of your life may god help you”, your touch the feet of your parents……”Now my brave soldier you are ready for the fight” the situation implies.
You pick up your conveyance and start to move towards the examination hall.In the way you are worried about your performance ,”How will the paper be?”,”Will i be able to solve adequate problems”,”i could have studied more..”,”Its THE EXAM of my life…what if i am not able to do up to the mark?”..all these are coming to your mind.
Finally , from a distance you are able to see your “battle field”, you can see the board of the examination centre “BNSD Vidya Niketan”, your pulse rate accelerates.Outside the centre you see lots of parent and aspirants moving here and there(total brownian motion!!),some are moving inside , some coming out , some touching the feet of there parents and parents wishing them best of luck.Everybody has his own “Astra” in there hands.There is this guy in blue jeans , he is sitting and looking at his notes ,you are inspired and you also start thinking about looking at few formulas.Meanwhile you see Rajesh , who is there in your coaching , you start to talk with him.
There are lots of guys ,crowding that area.You go there and find that room allocation is displayed , your room number is 7A.You enter the room, there are few guys in the room.You search for your seat and then do a quick inspections of it to see whether everything is fine or not.Now you sit down and try to make yourself comfortable.
After a while two serious looking invigilators come into the room , one is holding answersheets and other is holding a brown packet that contains your question paper.Your heartbeat again increased due to the realization that the papers have finally arrived.You stare at the packet , wondering what type of paper might be inside?.You are given the answer sheet with the instruction to write your name on it.
Finally , you hear the grand bell ring, with every ring you get a very strange feeling in your heart and stomach.Invigilator starts to distribute the paper and you are waiting for your turn to get it.You strart attempting the paper.You looked at the seat where Swami(an intelligent boy of your coaching) is sitting , you saw that he has already started attempting the paper while you are just trying to find out which question to solve.Now you have finally started attempting the paper.Time passes and finally ends.
After submitting your paper you rush quickly for your pencil box and writing board.You have next paper after a break of 1.5 hours.As you move out of the room you see a lot of commotion.You see guys discussing about the paper, you overhear there talks…”yaar paper was easy compared to last year ….cutoff will be a little higher” , “hey what was the correct answer of that Uranium 238 problem…i think it was option c..what do you say”,”most of the questions in maths came from XYZ’s book”etc. etc..You are also very anxious to know how Swami and Rajesh performed in the paper so you go and discuss the paper.
After discussing the paper for about fifteen minutes you come back and have some snacks while you plan to revise a few points for the paper after an hour.You revised till it was time for your next paper.You proceed towards your exam room once again…..
We gave this long discription to bring you closer to the feelings and activities of your examination day.There are seven blunders committed by “you” in the above given passage. Lets see if you can identify them.

Strategy #2 : Solving Objective Type Question
By admin | October 3, 2007
SOLVING OBJECTIVE TYPE PROBLEMS
- If there is no negative marking then you should first try to do as many problems as you can ,use wise guesses ,wherever possible .For blind guesses fix a particular option e.g.you can choose (b) as your choice ,but then mark (b) for all of your blind guesses (those good in probability might have understood the reason for that).
- In Physics , Chemistry and Maths , identify beforhand the portion you are good at and then in the paper search those objective problem which belong to your area of strength.There is no reason ,why in a paper of say 100 question you should start with question number 1 and then move step wise to hundred , try to find the questions you can do and crack them.
- The method we suggest is that ,start with looking at question paper .Generally the questions from related topics are flocked together in a group, identify your group and give it a try first.BUT dont waste time looking for that type of group if you can find them quickly.
- During your exam ,do keep in mind that JEE is not like your board exams here you are not expected to score too high , so dont challenge yourself into solving whole of the paper secularily, do those sections which you are good at .There are few trap questions which are basically made to be left .The game is to ’search the right question’ and then ’solve’,but most of us simply ’solve’ without ’searching the right question’.So ,do include the searching the right question.
- Also do keep reminding yourself that obvious looking answers are generally not right.
- “Second Round Efect”–When you revisit a question , which you could not solve in your earlier efforts , you are able to solve it.The reason for this is that when you solve other questions in the first round , lots of other concept gets and your brain is in fighting backspirit (due to the success over other questions) also as time passes you get a liitle relaxed hence your brain is able to operate with more efficiency.So if during the exam if you are not able to solve a particular question in one go then please dont get bogged down by it, have faith on our “second round effort” and you will see the miracles yourself.
- Make some identification mark on the questions , which you want to give a second try.I used to make ‘*’ on them.
- Many a times ,but not always, ‘none of these’ and ‘all of these’ option is correct.
- In the paper where there is a mix of multiple choice and single choice question, you should go in for doing single choice first.
- It is utmost important to have a high correct strike rate, because MCQ consumes more time and effort so by making a single wrong choice you will lose whole of the question and time , never rush in MCQ’s even if some MCQ are left untried(BUT NOT UNSEEN) .The policy for MCQ should be “DO LESS BUT ACCURATELY“.

Strategy #1 : General Problem Solving Technique
By admin | October 3, 2007
GENERAL PROLEM SOLVING TECHNIQUE
Any good IIT-JEE like problem , when analysed contains basically of three parts
1. Catchwords
2. Guessing simple Concept
3. Links
One good problem is linked with many simple concepts .This mix gives us is, an tricky looking question.Your first effort should be, to read(mark the catchwords) and somehow break the question so that you can identify(better word would be ‘guess’) the simple concepts involved .For identifying simple concepts, one must resort to drawing small diagrams of the problems and then a careful thought procedure should follow.Once you have identified the simpler concepts involved in it, then goto stage number two that is linking the concepts.Now this linking stage is where your earlier efforts and mental level come to the fore, in this area of linking no one can help you except, you, yourself.
In linking you use result of one portion and apply it to solve another.We will illustrate all these stages with an example:
IRODOV 1.241A uniform disc of radius R=20cm has a round cut as shown in the figure .The mass of the remaining portion of the disc equals m = 7.3kg.Find the moment of inertia of such a disc relative to the axis passing through its centre of inertia and perpendicular to the plane of the disc.
SOLUTION
JEE APPROACH: Remember , our aim is to show you method of attacking a problem by the above analysis , hence we will give an essay type description.
1.identifying catchwords:—-
1.1. ‘uniform disc’ , ’round cut’,'passing through centre of inertia’….
2.guessing simple concepts:—-
2.1. ‘ uniform disc ‘=> AREA proportional to MASS
2.2. ’round cut’=> area removed=> proportional mass removed..leads to depletion of Moment of inertia…..also center of gravity of remaining disc will not be the at the same position as of full disc.
2.3. ‘ passing through the centre of inertia’=>maybe parallel axis theorem ….!!!!???
3.linking and solving the problem:—-
Remember ,practice makes you a ‘better linker’.What you get by solving good number of problem is EXPOSURE which makes you a better linker.Back to the problem…
Taking clue from 2.1, suppose you had the full disc , if we remove the portion then the area removed is pi*(R/2)^2 => mass removed
=>(M/(pi*R^2))*pi*(R/2)^2=M/4.Mass of remaining portion is,m = M-M/4=3M/4
Taking clue from 2.2, we have removed a disc of radius R/2 from the orignal disc , so if we remove contribution to moment of inertia of that disc from full disc we will get the moment of inertia of the remaining
Next we try to find the center of gravity(CG) of the remaining portion .The CG of small disc is at the center of the small disc and that of full disc is at the center of full disc(our origin)….full disc=small disc + remaining portion!!! .So CG of small disc*its mass + CG of remaining portion*its mass = CG of full disc*total mass(equalising the mass moments) gives: (R/2)*(M/4) + (3M/4)*Xcm=M*0 => Xcm= - R/6
Taking clue from 2.3, moment of inertia(MI) of removed disc about ITS OWN CENTER is [(M/4)*(R/2)^2]/2 , and about the CG of remaining portion is [(M/4)*(R/2)^2]/2 +[(M/4)*(R/2 -Xcm)^2](parallel axis thm) =41(MR^2)/288
MI of full disc about CG of remaining disc is [M*R^2]/2 + [M*(0 -Xcm)^2]=19(MR^2)/36
=> MI of remainig disc = MI of full disc - MI of removed(small) disc=37(MR^2)/96=37(mR^2)/72 Ans.
try to see the’ linking’ carefully ,see how results of 2.1 is used in 2.2 and then in 2.3 to arrive at the solution.
In future , try to proceed by the above procedure and you will be able to win over lots of problem !!!!

Preparation Funda
By admin | October 3, 2007
This section is made with the aim to explain you what strategy means. You can also submit your strategical problems ,using the form given below.Deatailed description of strategy is given in our ’strategy’ section.
1. Strategical Fundas : This sub-section deals with those strategies that are not known to many of the aspirants of JEE , while at the same time they plays a prominent role in making a good rank in JEE.We are very sure that many of you will be able to relate to these strategical funda problems, even four or five of these problems are ‘eating you’ everyday consciously or unconsciously.
while one is prepairing these are the type of questions that comes to ones mind, unfortunately these type of questions are NOT dealt by most of the coaching institutes and tutorials , even if they are, then only when JEE is nearing.Good strategy can make you work at the peak of your efficiency.You surely have come across a case similar to this-> there was this guy named “Hi Fi” ,who was very intelligent , when given a tough problem and he was able to crack it in a jiffy, but when comes JEE he has either scored a bad rank or is not there in the list at all!!.So you ask , “what was wrong with him?” , answer could be overconfidence,couldnt revise properly,was not relaxed enough before the exam day, but to put this in one word we will say it was a case of bad strategy.
2. PCM Fundas : This sub-section deals with the regular P (Physics), C (Chemistry), and M(Maths).The more grasp you have on PCM the wider are the doors open for you to get through . What you learn at your coaching and tutorials are the PCM fundas, they are wihout doubt the most important thing to make you through.
There are always few scoring portions in each of physics , chemistry and maths portion e.g. in physics,modern physics question is a cakewalk provided you are not too bad at calculations.For mastering the PCM part it is very important that you should have your basics ultraclear.
In this funda section our main focus will be to give you various basic concepts and reasonings but we will not focus much on this because coaching and books are sufficient for learning them,our main motto is to provide those help which coachings and book cannot provide.
These are a few strategical problems
1. How to check my state of preperation?
2. I dont have a shining academic records, what are my possibility of getting through IITJEE?
3. How many hours a day should i study?
4. Will doing lots of objective type question will help in objective part of JEE?
5 Do i need question bank or tonnes of theory?
6. How should i plan my daily routine(short run strategy)?(we can help you in this provided you send us your planned routine)
7. How should i plan my long run strategy?(send us your plan and we will tailor edit it for you)
8. How should i plan my day a week or month before the examination date?
9. What should be my strategy in the examination center?(YES!! even here there are certain very important strategies)
10. How important is group study?
11. When should i start solving question papers, how helpful can they be?
12. How much one should rely on coachings?
13. What is the right time to start preparing for JEE?
14. Is first attempt really the ‘best attempt’ ?
1. Which are scoring potions in PCM?
2. Should i study the chapters in physics in certain order?
3. Should i solve as many books as possible?
4. How to improve my maths
5. When to do inorganic chemistry portion?
