Hi aspirant,

You should first go with answering that section or subject which you feel is most easiest. Generally chemistry includes fact based questions so it is preferred at girst and then it is followed by physics and maths. While attempting Physics, the students must give priority to modern physics (atomic physics, nuclear physics, and special theory of relativity). There are a number of regular questions from this section. This part has 10 – 15% questions. Matrices and determinants is a scoring topic of mathematics syllabus of JEE. It is important to know the various types of matrices and their properties. Like if the question asks about the rank of matrix then the matrix should be converted to echelon form and then the rank can be computed easily. Quadratic Equations are an important topic of JEE. It is a simple topic which can fetch good marks.

Make sure you dont spend all time one section only. The question in which you are not sure leave it and check it out at last and move on next one. Time management is key to score good marks.

Hope this helps.
