We have to practice and apply those concepts in problem solving. This sheet does just that. It contains a collection of problems segregated in the following exercises to help you master the concepts in a systematic and organized way. “Practice makes a man perfect” 1. Concept builder—1& 1A As soon as you have finished learning the concept do the problems from these exercises first. These exercises contains easy level questions to help you build your concepts. 1 —+ Contains Single Correct Type questions 1A —» Contains pattern based questions incorporating the latest JEE Advanced based patterns like more than one correct, matching list, match the column, ete. 2. Brain Booster— 2 & 2A Now that you have built your concepts it’s time to master them by solving Brain Boosting problems, Don’t hurry through these problems. Take time to solve & learn from them. These exercises contains Medium & Tough level problems. Do questions from 2 & 2A after attempting I & 1A 2 —+ Single Correct Type questions. 2A ——» Pattern Based questions. 3. Simulator — JM & JA Contains questions from previous year JEE Mains & JEE Advanced questions in exercise JM & exercise JA respectively. Get the real taste & feel of the type of questions being asked in JEE. It’s a great tool for simulating your mind with JEE problems. These exercises are not included in the module but are provided separately. JM —» JEE Mains previous years topic wise questions.
