Chemistry seems tough? I have finally got the perfect solution to it.

Chemistry for Class 12Chemistry for class 12 is a feared subject that requires a lot of memory power and theoretical “mugging up” in order to score marks in the CBSE exams. This general notion brings down the confidence level in many students. But Chemistry should be viewed as a subject which “throws away” marks to its students. Let us learn how to crack this che-mystery.

1. Organic Chemistry

A sure shot scoring area as the concepts revolve around specific rules. Hence it is necessary to study these rules and exceptions for certain reactions.
Chapters like Alcohols, Phenols and Ethers and Aldehydes, Ketones and Carboxylic Acids (Unit 11 and 12) are the most important and have a higher weightage of questions. Fundamental reactions like Nucleophilic substitution/addition, Electrophilic substitution/addition and named reactions like Williamson, Wolff-Kishner, Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky, Clemmenson Reduction are important and 5 mark questions can be asked directly to explain each of the processes and questions like stepwise conversion from one compound to another are definitely expected every year.
Another part where stress should be given is the IUPAC naming of compounds and the use of different reagents to test the presence of compounds (like Tollens’, Baeyers’) will easily fetch you the short answer type questions allotted 1/2 marks.

2. Inorganic Chemistry

Without a doubt, the NCERT material provided in Inorganic Chemistry for class 12 is the primer in the field. It is important to read through the entire chapters of Inorganic Chemistry as the student is tested on his/her memory of certain reactions. Most of these questions are direct and Units 6 to 9 are the most important. This section will be taught after Physical Chemistry but it is always advisable to start preparing these topics in advance.
Coordination Compounds and p-Block elements (8+ Marks with a sure 5 Mark question expected from this chapter) are the most important chapters in Inorganic Chemistry. There is a soft spot for Noble gases and Halogens as there always are some questions asked from these topics in the exam. Develop a “Reaction Book”, a book listing ALL the reactions when you are preparing. This book should be gone through at least once a week and will prove to be very useful during the revision time at the end and also for your JEE Main and JEE Advanced and other entrance exams’ preparation time.

3. Physical Chemistry

One word. TopprSolve this question bank provided by Toppr on their website which contains a lot of problems in physical chemistry. One should be very thorough with their formulae and should be able to apply in any way modified. The only way to get a good sense over this would be to practise more and more problems.
Chapters like Surface ChemistrySolutionsElectrochemistry and Chemical Kinetics come under this category and there is no exception as to which are important.
Practising the problems provided at the end of each of the chapters helps and sometimes, we can expect the same model questions appearing in the exams as well! Toppr applies to the Organic and inorganic chemistry as well. Also, solve the past year papers and write them as an exam during the final revision time so as to improve your answering speed and this will also give an idea of time management as the paper might get lengthy at times. Good for exam simulation.
All the best for your journey!

How to choose a right carrer.... MUST READ !!



Choosing the right career can be difficult, but having a defined career direction will help you with getting a job. But with a little hard work, some planning, and some serious self-reflection, you can set yourself on a path towards a fruitful, fulfilling career that can provide for you and your family.


1
Consider your dream career. There is an old saying that if you’re trying to choose a career, you should think about what you would do if you didn’t have to work. If you had a million dollars and you could do anything, what would you do? Your answer to that question, while maybe not literally the best career choice for you, may give you insight into what you should do.
  • If you want to be a music star, consider going into audio engineering or music composition. These careers are easier to pursue and you will be much more likely to succeed and provide for yourself in the future.
  • If you want to be an actor, consider going into media broadcasting. You can get a degree in communications or work your way up the chain of command in a local news or other television studio.
  • If you want to travel the world, consider becoming an airline steward or stewardess. This is a great way to make a living and pursue your dream of traveling the globe.
2
Consider your hobbies. It is very easy to turn your hobbies or something you love doing into a future career. Many hobbies correspond to real world needs and positions. Consider what you like to do and how that might fit into a career.
  • For example, if you like playing video games, consider becoming a video game designer, programmer, or QA specialist.
  • If you like drawing or art, consider becoming a graphic designer.
  • If you like sports, consider going into teaching and getting certified as a coach.
3
Consider what you enjoy or enjoyed in school. Academic subjects translate well into future careers but may require more schooling than other types of careers. Your favorite class in high school could very well launch you into your future career but you have to be willing to work for it.
  • For example, if you loved chemistry, you could look forward to a future career as a lab technician or a pharmacist.
  • If you liked English class, consider becoming an editor or a copywriter.
  • If you enjoyed math, consider becoming an actuary or an accountant.
4
Consider what skills you excel in. If you are particularly good at certain skills, such as fixing things or making things, this can provide you with a great future career. Schooling may or may not be necessary, but skilled labor is often in demand and you will find it fairly easy to find work.
  • For example, carpentry, auto repair, construction, and electrical work all benefit from people who are good at fixing things or working with their hands. These also tend to be stable, well-paying jobs.
  • Other skills, such as a skill for cooking, can also be easily turned into a career.
5
Consider your interpersonal skills. If your skills lie more in helping and communicating with other people, there are jobs for you as well. People who communicate and interact with others well can easily get careers as social workers or in marketing and similar business positions.
  • If you’re more the type to take care of others, consider nursing or work as an administrative assistant or office manager.
6
Explore yourself. Figuring out what you should do with your life may sometimes require you to get to know yourself better. If you want a career that will really make you happy, you have to have a very good understanding of what you want and what you enjoy. For some people, this means taking some time off to decide what’s important to them.
  • There is nothing wrong with this, so don’t feel bad. It’s more important that you figure your life out as early as possible, rather than getting knee deep in a career which makes you hate your life.
7
Think about the education you will have as you enter a career. It is important to consider what education you already have or will have as you begin pursuing a career. If finances may bar you from pursuing more schooling, you may need to consider what you already have. It may also be necessary to stick with your existing high school or college degree if there are time limitations or other restrictions. If you find that you are limited to jobs relating to the degree you already have, consult with a career counselor to find out what options are available to you.

8
Consider your future financial security. One of the most important things to consider is if the career path you’re choosing will provide you with an acceptable level of financial security. In other words, will you be able to make enough money to support yourself and your family?
  • Remember, this doesn’t have to be a lot of money or enough money by somebody else’s standards. All that matters is that it’s enough for you and what you want for your life.
9
Consider your future job stability. It is also important to consider a future career’s stability. Job markets fluctuate as society needs different things at different times. Certain jobs are also always in demand or frequently unstable. You will need to consider if the career you choose is stable enough for you and your desires for the future.
  • For example, many people recently went into law school and racked up often in excess of $100,000 in school debt because they thought they’d be making a very high wage in the future. However, law positions are not in demand as much the last few years and now those people have huge debts and no way to pay them.
  • Another example is working as a writer or any career based on freelance work. You may sometimes have plenty of work but there may be years when you have almost nothing. Working in this way requires a certain level of determination and discipline and is not for everybody.Image titled Choose the Right Career Step 2

How can You avoid being distracted by girls during the JEE preparation?

Make a clear distinction in mind to the question.
1)Do you really want to crack JEE Advanced? Yes.
2)Does girls distract you during preparation which you think that it will be harmful for your preparation? 
a)If no,
No problem, do not forget to prepare for JEE.
b)Else,
You are contradicting yourself at step 1.

Now the point is it is quite natural while preparing for JEE that you get distracted by girls. However you have to choose. Yeah choose wisely that if this distraction is letting not to study properly for JEE, then you have to leave it, not always I mean up to the exams right, after that you are free (sort of) to get distracted. If you can manage then there is no problem.

Still I have not answered the question properly. What should be done so that you will not be distracted. Well make a schedule to busy yourself always with study so that you do not even get time for that. When ever you thing that say a particular girl is making you distracted or something like that first thing is to accept that yeah you are getting distracted. Now while you are alone think about what should be done so that you will not be getting distracted. I can aassure you, you yourself will come up with an idea much better than I would suggest and much applicable for you. 

In the last the whole point of discussion converges to a question that asks to choose. And choose wisely. Because

10 Tips to Study Smart and Save Time

The alternative strategy is to focus on actually using the information you have to build something. This involves linking concepts together and compressing information so it fits in the bigger picture. Here are some ideas to get started:
  1. Metaphor – Metaphors can allow you to quickly organize information by comparing a complex idea to a simple one. When you find relationships between information, come up with analogies to increase your understanding. Compare neurons with waves on a string. Make metaphors comparing parts of a brain with sections of your computer.
  2. Use All Your Senses – Abstract ideas are difficult to memorize because they are far removed from our senses. Shift them closer by coming up with vivid pictures, feelings and images that relate information together. When I learned how to do a determinant of a matrix, I remembered the pattern by visualizing my hands moving through the numbers, one adding and one subtracting.
  3. Teach It – Find someone who doesn’t understand the topic and teach it to them. This exercise forces you to organize. Spending five minutes explaining a concept can save you an hour of combined studying for the same effect.
  4. Leave No Islands – When you read through a textbook, every piece of information should connect with something else you have learned. Fast learners do this automatically, but if you leave islands of information, you won’t be able to reach them during a test.
  5. Test Your Mobility – A good way to know you haven’t linked enough is that you can’t move between concepts. Open up a word document and start explaining the subject you are working with. If you can’t jump between sections, referencing one idea to help explain another, you won’t be able to think through the connections during a test.
  6. Find Patterns – Look for patterns in information. Information becomes easier to organize if you can identify broader patterns that are similar across different topics. The way a neuron fires has similarities to “if” statements in programming languages.
  7. Build a Large Foundation – Reading lots and having a general understanding of many topics gives you a lot more flexibility in finding patterns and metaphors in new topics. The more you already know, the easier it is to learn.
  8. Don’t Force – I don’t spend much time studying before exams. Forcing information during the last few days is incredibly inefficient. Instead try to slowly interlink ideas as they come to you so studying becomes a quick recap rather than a first attempt at learning.
  9. Build Models – Models are simple concepts that aren’t true by themselves, but are useful for describing abstract ideas. Crystallizing one particular mental image or experience can create a model you can reference when trying to understand. When I was trying to tackle the concept of subspaces, I visualized a blue background with a red plane going through it. This isn’t an entirely accurate representation of what a subspace is, but it created a workable image for future ideas.
  10. Learning is in Your Head – Having beautiful notes and a perfectly highlighted textbook doesn’t matter if you don’t understand the information in it. Your only goal is to understand the information so it will stick with you for assignments, tests and life. Don’t be afraid to get messy when scrawling out ideas on paper and connecting them in your head. Use notes and books as a medium for learning rather than an end result.

10 ways to boost your motivation and mood to help you get started on projects

1) Force yourself to start – The motivation will come
Many people tend to wait for the right moment (when they feel inspired and/or motivated) to start their work. But the reality is they may never feel inspired to do the work that needs to be done.
The most successful people don’t wait around until they’re in the right mood. They just get started and what they notice is after awhile they realise “wow, what I’ve done so far is pretty good” and this results in them feeling motivated and wanting to take more action.
If you just start doing something small (writing one sentence, getting the book out of your bag, etc.), it won’t take long before you’re on a roll and deeply immersed in your project.
2) Imagine the end
If you’re really struggling with a project it can help to imagine the end result and how you’ll feel once you accomplish it. Athletes use this strategy frequently to help them stay focused on their goals and to keep motivated.
You may want to consider putting a picture of the end result up on your wall or on your project file as this can be a great way to keep motivated when dealing with obstacles and setbacks.
3) Imagine taking the next action step
If you find imagining the end result too overwhelming, then imagine yourself just taking the next step on whatever it is you need to do. This could involve imagining yourself getting up and turning on your computer, putting on your jogging shoes or picking up a book. The simple act of visualising yourself executing a particular action can help you to take the first step (which is often the hardest part).
4) See the big picture
Often we lack motivation when we can’t see the point in what we are doing. Before you engage in your work ask yourself “Why am I doing this?”, “Where am I heading?” and “Where do I want to be in 3 years time?” Answering these questions can help you to gain clarity, focus your energy and propel you into action.
5) Trick yourself into getting started
Next time you have a piece of work you need to do, ask yourself this question –
“What’s the smallest, simplest action that I can take to start this task?”
If it’s a book you need to read, the simplest action may be getting the book from the shelf or your bag. You want to say to yourself “All I need to do is get my book from my bag”.
Once you’ve done this, ask yourself the question –
“What’s the next smallest and simplest action step I can take?”
This time it may be opening up the book or reading the first sentence on the page. It may not seem like much, but the act of taking the first action step is often the hardest part and once you’ve done that, it’s highly likely that you will keep going.
6) Gain Clarity
Get clear on what you need to do. What will the finished product/project look like? Spend some time thinking about this. You may want to even sketch out onto some paper what it is that you’re setting out to achieve.
Once you’re clear on this, set a goal with a deadline of when you want to have this completed by (e.g. “I will have completed my report by Friday the 10th of June by 4pm”
7) Power nap it up
If you’re feeling tired, don’t force yourself to start your work. Take a power nap instead. Power naps (aka nanna naps and power snoozes) are short intense naps between 10 and 24 minutes in duration.
Taking a power nap before 5pm can be a great way to re-energise and clear your mind before starting work on an important project that requires a fresh state of mind.
8 ) Watch an uplifting video on YouTube or put on some upbeat music
If you’re feeling in a flat mood, you can set a short period of time aside (e.g. 5 or 10 minutes) to watch an inspirational video on YouTube or listen to some uplifting music. As long as this doesn’t lead to you spending hours of your day watching random videos instead of doing your work, it can be a great way to get in the right mindset for a productive session of work. An inspirational video to get you started is Team Hoyt – The Journey of Life Together.
9) Move your body
Studies have found that intense physical activity can enhance creativity, decrease stress levels and sharpen your ability to think. If you want to feel motivated and be more productive, then hit the gym, go for a run, participate in a zumba class or just dance in your bedroom!
In order to experience the full benefits of physical activity you need to engage in exercise that gets you working up a sweat and puffing. There is however a fine line. Whilst you want to work up a sweat, you also don’t want to exercise to the point where you feel completely exhausted and need to spend the rest of the day on the couch. You need to find the right level of intensity that works for you.
10) Work in 8 minute Power Bursts
Invest in a timer and work in 8 minute power bursts. 8 minutes doesn’t sound like a very long period of time but it’s long enough to allow you to get into the swing of a particular activity. When you need to start work on a particular project, set the alarm for 8 minutes and tell yourself “I’m going to focus on doing this for 8 minutes – no distractions!”.
When the timer goes off after 8 minutes, you have two choices – if you’re struggling with the task you can take a break but if you’re on a roll, keep going. The beauty of this strategy is that after 8 minutes you’ll most likely have eased into the project, realised “This isn’t so bad!” and want to keep going.
There you have it – 10 more ways to boost your motivation and lift your mood to start your projects. Chances are that even after reading this, you’re still not feeling particularly motivated to start your work. But don’t despair – the solution is to try out one of the strategies and see how you go.

KVPY... If you are smart, try this.

KVPY 

Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana is a national fellowship/scholarship programme in Basic Sciences, conducted by Department of Science and Technology, Government of India. The programme aims to identify students with talent and aptitude for research and encourage them to take up research as a career.

KVPY 2016 Syllabus

There is no prescribed syllabus for the KVPY written exam and the emphasis is on evaluating the candidates on their conceptual understanding and analytical ability rather than their factual knowledge.
However, for guidance purposes, your study should consist of PhysicsChemistryBiology and Mathematics syllabus that you have studied till Class X for SA exam, till Class XII for SX exam and till 1st year of your B.Sc., B.S., B.stat., B.Math., Integrated M.Sc. or Integrated M.S. programmes as applicable.
Since the CBSE Board is most popular school board in India, you might consider covering CBSE syllabus up to Class X or XII as applicable.

Tips to make your study hours fruitful. Follow these and get prepared for JEE Advanced

As an IIT aspirant, we used to hear a lot of advice like – ‘You mustn’t lose your focus’, ‘Practice, Practice, and Practice some more to get through IIT JEE’, and ‘Distractions will kill your Dedication. Beware of them!’ But then, nobody knew the exact method of making it to an IIT.
Here are some of the secret tips to win IIT JEE (Advanced).

Study by Plan, not by number of hours

Tips to Crack IIT JEE 2016With a success rate of barely 4-5%, IIT JEE may seem fiercely competitive. But as an IITian, I can assure you that IITians are mere mortals too. An average IITian is not always a ‘genius’ but he is certainly methodical and disciplined in his own particular way.
 When you are preparing for IIT, you cannot just say, “Oh! That person cracked IIT studying for just an hour a day. I study for three or four hours a day. It has to be enough.” It doesn’t work that way. You cannot compare performances by clock. In the exam, it does not matter how long you studied or whether you never studied at all – it only matters if you know your concepts well or not, whether you know how to solve a problem or not.
Hence, you need to measure your performance by your study plan for the day. You need to establish definite goals to be achieved in a day, in a week, and in a month.
Your daily goals will need to include:
  • topics you will study,
  • preparing notes for the topics you have studied,
  • solve practice questions or numericals related to the topics, and
  • solve at least two practice papers, sample papers, mock tests, or IIT JEE past year papers a day.
It used to take me 5-7 hours to complete my daily goals. Use your clock only to see how much time you took to solve the tests.

Early morning studies are better than late nights!

Tips to Crack IIT JEE 2016I know what you are going to say. IITians do have a reputation of pulling an all-nighter before exams. But that is not a good idea while you are still at school. Sleeping late at night will mean that you will be hardly able to focus on the invaluable tips teachers offer in class.
Many-a-times, if you study well in class, you will save a lot of time in trying to unravel the concepts on your own later. So, think of classroom studies as your JEE prep classes and pay attention to them.

Rote learning doesn't work for IIT JEE preparation

Tips to Crack IIT JEE 2016Surprisingly, all through the school years, we are never taught how to study properly. Rote learning does not do you much good when it comes to fetch good scores in JEE Main or JEE Advanced. In fact, if you are a CBSE student, the school board exams also emphasizes on High Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) these days. It means that you need to really understand what you are reading and learn to apply your brains.
Application of concepts and fundamentals you learn is very important. You need to learn how you will apply them to real-life problems too. Going through questions asked in the past year papers should give you a good idea of what type of questions are asked in engineering entrance exams.

Dare to take up the Challenge

Tips to Crack IIT JEE 2016Think about difficult topics are your ‘challenges’. They should give you an adrenalin rush and to be able to surmount them should give you satisfaction. Study difficult topics when you are at your brightest and most alert. With a positive frame of mind and better focus, these difficult chapters will seem to transform into simpler concepts.
Here’s a warning too. JEE Main, JEE Advanced and Class 11 & 12 syllabus for your school board can be quite a lot to handle (even though most of the topics are common in the three exams). So, do not waste much time in researching every topic in-depth. Seek help quickly and get going.
Online IIT JEE coaching service providers often offer 24X7 support and problem solving sessions with experienced and highly qualified faculty members. These may be available as part of their comprehensive package or as separate components too. You may want to subscribe to these assistance programs for getting your doubts cleared and queries solved as soon as they arise.

Monitor your JEE preparation

Tips to Crack IIT JEE 2016As mentioned above, sample papers help you familiarize to the type of questions asked in the exam. Full-length IIT JEE past year papers or mock tests do much more. They help you evaluate your preparation level, develop speed and accuracy during the exam, and give you a clear experience of the paper pattern.
Analysis of mock tests is very important. It is this analysis which helps you identify your weak and strong points. At askIITians, we conduct weekly tests for our students and offer them a detailed analysis report along with recommendations on how to improve their performance. All-India JEE Main and JEE Advanced test series also give you a real-life exam feel. All-India Ranks (AIR) generated after such mock tests give you a fair idea of where you stand among your peers.
Good AIR boosts your confidence while poor AIR serves as a warning sign.

Keep fit, keep glowing

Tips to Crack IIT JEE 2016While still at school, do not give up on your sleep for anything. Give up on TV or computer time instead. I used to sleep by 10 pm and woke up by 4 am. I used to sleep 2 hours for a day after schools too – which kept me fresh and my mind and body relaxed for evening session studies. You might have to experiment to find your own comfort zone.
Gorge on mom-made food as much as you can. You are going to miss the home-made food terribly when you are in the IIT.
Exercise daily. Go for a walk, jump rope or play active sports for at least an hour a day. And drink at least 8 glasses of water every day. They will not only keep you healthy but also help your skin to glow. You do not want your chances ruined to win over the rare beauties at the institute do you? Well, it would be a terrible, terrible mistake!

Find suitable study groups

Tips to Crack IIT JEE 2016Constructive competition and group studies keep you motivated. But network with right kind of fellow aspirants to form study groups. If you do not find suitable candidates in your neighbourhood, you may set up a virtual study group with online friend.
In the end, don’t underestimate the contribution of ‘stupid’ friends in the study group. To explain anything to them, you have to go to such details and break concepts into such bite-sized chunks that you never forget them again – even if you want to. So, help weak students whenever you can.
