Achieving the top rank in JEE Main is every engineering aspirant’s dream, but only a select few manage to turn this dream into reality. Recently, JEE MAIN 2025 AIR 1 Strategy Revealed through an exclusive session with Daksh, a VMC student who scored a perfect 300/300 marks and secured All India Rank 1. His journey offers invaluable insights into How To Achieve Air 1 In JEE and provides a roadmap that serious aspirants can follow.
The Basics: Focus on Getting Better, Not Being Perfect
One thing that really stood out in Daksh’s advice for toppers is that you don’t have to be perfect right away. Even he, who got All India Rank 1, had problems with distractions in 10th grade and wasted a lot of time playing games on his phone. What really changed things for him was when he started using app timers and slowly cut down on his screen time in 11th grade.
For those of you studying now, this means it’s important to know what your weak points are and make a plan to fix them bit by bit. Daksh’s story shows that getting better a little at a time is more important than being perfect from the start.
A Study Plan That Works: Focus on Quality, Not Just Quantity
Daksh’s study plan was well-organized but still flexible. On days off from school, he tried to study for 10 hours, but when he had school, he only studied for an extra 1-2 hours after his VMC classes. His way of thinking about how to pass the JEE exam was based on three ideas:
1. Attend Every Class: During his two years of prep, Daksh only skipped about 2 or 3 classes. When he did (because he was sick or early lessons on atomic structure), it left gaps he needed to work extra hard to fill.
2. Review Right Away: After each class, he’d clear up anything confusing in his notes. Then, he’d work through practice questions that day or the next. This stopped him from falling behind, which happens to a lot of students.
3. Understand First: Daksh tried to really understand things instead of dwelling on what he didn’t get. He thought it was better to understand most of the material and have a few questions than to be totally lost all the time.
How He Mastered Each Subject
Math was Daksh’s best subject. He got good at spotting patterns. The JEE Coaching materials from VMC were enough for practice, so he didn’t need extra books. He would:
* Make notes on each new idea or way to solve problems
* Mark hard questions and go over them again and again
* Keep a list in his head of 30-40 basic ideas that could solve most questions
For Chemistry, he knew he could get a good score. Physics needed a mix of understanding the ideas and practicing problems.
Exam Strategy: A Recipe for Success
Daksh changed the game when it came to how he tackled exams. Instead of finishing one subject before starting another, he did all the multiple-choice questions first (Physics: 30 minutes, Chemistry: 20 minutes, Math: 50 minutes). Then, he moved on to the integer-type questions. He made sure to save 40-50 minutes at the end to check everything over.
He found this helped him stay calm during the exam and get more questions right. That extra time to review was key because he was able to find a couple of math mistakes that would have kept him from getting a perfect score.
How Parents Can Help
The session also talked about what parents can do to help their kids prepare for the JEE. When Daksh was really studying hard, he only went to school once or twice a week. This meant his school and parents had to be understanding and work with him. Because they supported him, he could really focus on getting ready for the JEE without feeling stressed about other things.
Test-Taking Philosophy
The most potent advice in Daksh’s strategy was to always engage in test practice. He said he had appeared in about 40-50 mock tests for JEE Main alone and most times scored poorly, and it was the practice that gave him speed, accuracy, and confidence. His words for those who find it distasteful initially were: “Numbers don’t matter initially-the practice does.”
Key Takeaways for a Candidate
The realization of AIR 1 was never because of immense intelligence but because of immense discipline. His key to success lies in being present in every class, keeping neat notes, practicing regularly, and never letting work pile up. More than that, he showed that with right means and consistent hard work, the impossible can be made possible.
For the present JEE aspirants, the story of Daksh should act both as an inspiration and a guide, showcasing the reality that underneath strife for greatness lies persistent and intelligent effort with strategic preparation.
