JEE Main preparation strategy

The JEE Main 2026 session 1 saw Arnav Gautam emerge as a standout top performer with a perfect score of 300 out of 300, positioning him strongly for AIR 1 (tied potentially with Pasala Mohith, who also achieved 300/300 based on provisional answer keys and response sheets). Hailing from Kota, Rajasthan, Arnav prepared rigorously from class 6 onward, dedicating 8-10 hours daily to focused study while emphasizing immediate doubt resolution, consistent revision of core concepts, and solving high-quality problems from coaching modules and previous years' papers. His strategy centered on mastering basics first, prioritizing high-weightage topics across Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, maintaining a disciplined timetable with regular mock tests for time management and accuracy, and staying calm under pressure—tips that helped him secure full marks in the January attempt and aim for top ranks in the final AIR list (expected after session 2 results around April 2026).2sFast80 sources
