Like every other exam, the practice has it all. Practice and practice all the time. Make small notes of the things you want to remember for later. Make sure to make notes in your own language so that you would remember them longer.
Draw everything you can. Browse sketches online and try attempting them.
Search previous year question papers and solve most of them. Take the mock test and prepare for the exam perfectly.
Pay attention to your diet and exercise. Take carbohydrate-rich diet and have oats from time to time. Avoid caffeine. Give 30 minutes to exercise in the morning. It will refresh you.
Don’t forget to do your favourite things. Read books, play football, sketch and draw and everything that excites you. It will help you keep your mind straight and healthy.
Think positive and don’t give up. Try and try because failure means you are trying and if you are trying, it’s enough. Give your best always.
Don’t forget :
- The candidates must carry their own drawing and sketching aids for the exam as these things will not be provided by the authorities.
- The students must carry their IIT JEE Advanced Admit Card for the exam as no separate Admit card is issued to the students appearing for AAT.
- The students who secure cut-off marks and above are declared passed but the seat allocation is done only on the basis of JEE Advanced ranks.
