.COMPETITIVE EXAMINATIONS: MYTHS & R EALITIES
“Questions in competitive Exams are not difficult but they are just different”
Yes! Most of the questi ons in competitive examinati ons are not dif ficult but they are just different & they
require a different approach, a different mindset & t hat’s why it is a different individual who clears the4se
examinations. But, before we talk more about how to succeed in these different exams, it is very important to
understand how are they different from board exams.
Board Exams vs Competitive Exams
· In boards the fo cus is on concepts whereas in competitive exams the focus is o n application of concepts to real
life situations. The board exams test that whether you know the fundamentals or not whereas competitive
exams are designed to test whether you can apply these fundamentals to real life situations or not.
· In board exams good writing and presentation skills are very important whereas in competitive exams what
they emphasise upon is not your writing skills but understanding of fundamentals and their a pplications.
· Board exams are designed to filter below average students (who can’t score more than 33% marks) from good
and average students whereas competitive exams are designed to filter e xcellent students (who can score more
than 75% marks and a re among top 3 to 4 percentage students) from the average ones.
· In board exams absolute marks a re important (% marks scored) whereas in competitive exams relative marks/
percentile rank is important (it is not important that whether you score 80% or 90% but what is important ishow many students have scored more than you). Normally to succeed in a competitive examinations your
percentile rank has to be 95% and above
Also i n competitive exami nations there are many students who miss b y just one, two or three marks. This is the
most important difference between the competitive exam and board exam. In board e xam you will say that two
students getting 88% & 87% marks are equally intelligent and successful. But in case of Competitive exam
success & f ailure is just one mark away. So what makes competitive exams different (not difficult) is the cut
throat competition fo r the limited seats.
Type of Questions
The questions in competitive exams can be categorized as follows:
· Memory based questions: These are direct question & can be solved without / bare minimum calculations
· Applications based questions: These questions involve practical situations & i nvolve practical situations &involve application of fundamental con be further categorized into:
| First level application: Involve application of only one concept
| Multilevel application: Involve application of more than one (usually 2 to 3) concepts.
Most of the questions in competitive examination are not tough, they are like riddles, which have a catch in
them & involve application of several concepts. Each question has an element of surprise in it & a student who
is adept i n tackling surprise q uestions i n most likely to sail t hrough. The question is most likely to sail through.
The question in most of the competitive examinations are new & have not b een taken from any of the books. So
it is important for the candidate to be regularly exposed to such question so that the doesn’t loose his confidence
on the examination da y.
And last but not the least: The Time Pressure
Competitive Exams is oftenly understood as a selection process, but in real sense it is nothing but an
elimination technique. The basic objective of the test is to filter excellent candidate from an average one. In a
competitive examination it is not important that whether you know the question or not & whether you can solve
the question or not but what is important is t hat whether you can solve the question in shortest possible time or
not. So your success in competitive exams depends upon your approach towards these questions because that
defines the time you would take to solve the question. or not & whether you can solve the question or not but
what is solve the question in shortest possible time or not. So your success in competitive exams depends upon
your approach towards these question i.e. the way you attack these questions because that defines the time

2
you would take to solve the question. Most of the questions can be solved by two or three methods but it is
important to understand the trick & adopt the shortest method so as to solve the question in shortest possible
time. So, apart from the type of questions what makes Competitive Exams different is the time pressure that
they impose on you. Out of 150 minutes that you get in a competitive Exam normally a candidate uses 18 to 20
minutes of it for darkening the circles, t hat means t hat in the remaining 130 minutes you have 200 question in
front of you. Isn’t that race against time !
To summarize, Competitive Exam is not only a test of your knowledge but it is also a test of your aptitude,
but it is also a test of your aptitude, time management skills, nerves, consistency and ability to apply
basic fundamentals to real life situations.

UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENT EXAMS (a comparison between CBSE Boards and competitive examinations)
The sa me syl l a b u s , sa me st u d en t s , t h e sam e ha r d wo r k , b u t d i f f er en t
r e s u l t s ! ! !
It had been intriguing, all the time, for all the students. But as soon as we understand,
“how it is that same syllabus is being asked differently in different exams”, our efforts
will be different for different exams and results will be uniformly BRIGHT (Good). In
other words, there is absolutely on difference in t he concepts involved in the questions
asked in the various board and competitive examinations. The difference comes in the
way, it is asked in these exams. Wherein the boards, they check the conceptual clarity of
a student, in the competitions, it is the application of the concepts which is stressed
upon. Further this application skill may vary from exam to exam. For Example:
I : Projectile motion
What they ask in CBSE?
Q.1 (a) What is Projectile.
(b) Find out the maximum range & maximum height for a given velocity (u) & ratios there of
(c) Find the range of a Projectile falling from a horizontal table etc.
What they ask in AIEEE/PMT?Q.1(a) What is the minimum Kinetic Energy of the projectile with initial velocity (u) & angle of projection (f),
mass of the object being (m)?
(b) How much time it would take to reach a height ‘h’?
(c) What sh ould be its velocity at height ‘h’?
[HINT: Calculate from basic concepts . No direct formula used.]
What they ask in IIT – JEE?
Q.1 (a) What is the height (hm) & velocity (V m) of a projectile when angle between the initial velocity and
velocity at hm is perpendicular to each other.
(b) If a projectile has a range of ‘R’ & there is a high wall at a distance (d) from the point of projection, at what
distance will the projectile strike on the ground after being reflected from the wall with inelastic collision (e being 0.8)

(c) What should be minimum velocity of p rojectile so that it hits a aeroplane at a height (H) which is moving
horizontally with a velocity of u.
Example II : Laws of Motion
What they ask in CBSE?
Q.2 (a) In the given figure find the tensions T1 & T 2?
(b) What are the normal reactions N1 & N 2 as shown in the figure given below?
What they ask in AIEEE/PMT?
Q.2 (a) Calculate the Tensions T 1’ & T2’, when the three blocks, joined with the help of a string, as shown in the
figure, are moving upwards with help of a fo rce of 120N.
(b) Find the ratio of Tensions T2’ & T1’ when the force of 120N is applied downwards only.
What they ask in IIT – JEE?
Q.2 (a) Find the ratio of T 2” & T1” at an inclined plane of angle of 32o , when pulled with a force of F = 120 N,
upward.
[Hind: force drops in ratio of masses & independent of angle. Hence T1 = 60 N, & T2 = 24 N]
From the above examples , we find that – s yllabus is same, topic is same, but there is level difference in asking
& Calculations. Hence we can conclude that: For the better understanding of the above article we can use the
anology of VEHICLE DRIVING CAPABILITY.

· While doing problem solving try to strengthen and develop your conceptual understanding by analyzing
deeply and correlating the problem with real life situations.
· While practicing identify your strong & weak areas (subject wise/topic wise/ question wise). Testing your
preparation chapter by chapter can do this. Through a structured test you should be able to diagnose which
chapter, which concept & what type of problems you need to practice more.
Step 4: Strengthening Speed/ Strike Rate & Examination temperament
·
Do each exercise and each question keeping time in mind. Always remember that in final exams it is not
important that whether you can solve the questions correctly or not but it is important that are you able to solve
the questions in shortest possible time or not. Always keep t rack of our average speed of solving question
· Participating in identical test series helps in time & temperament management during the final exams. It has
been observed that most of the students l oose 8 to 10% of their marks not because they do not know the subject
but because they fail to apply the basic concepts correctly. This is basically d ue to examination fear & pressure.
These marks which a student looses because of silly mistakes (calculation error, gets confused, fail to apply the
right concepts, solves the problem by long method) can be reduced if a student regularly participates in test
series based on the pattern & level of final exams.
· Please remember that both speed & strike rate are important for success. Continuously develop the ability do
things fast & accurately.
·
After each test analyse your performa nce.· Keep interacting with people who are preparing. Since the competition is o n National level it is important to
compare your preparation with other students preparing across the country.
In short we can say that “competition is not necessarily test of knowledge of basic fundamentals only b ut it is
a test of application of knowledge to solve surprise problems with perfect time & temperament
management.
There suggestions may seem to be ordinary advice but they are time tested & will definitely benefit
a student who practices them sincerely. Consistent study of 6 to 7 hours with proper planning can
give success even to average students. And remember there are no shortcuts to success. Success is
not something which you will find lying on the road. Success demands lot of sacrifice, discipline and
hard work. As Henry Ford has rightly said
“the harder you work the luckier you get”

IIT-JEE CUT OFF MARKS
A minimum of 35% is essential to be promoted to a higher class under almost every Indian school board or university.
But you don't need that much to make it to some of the finest technological institutes in the country.
On Saturday, when the Indian Institutes of Technology released report cards of students who joined these
engineering schools this year, it transpired that the entry bar for the reserved category students had dropped to a
mere 18% (89/480).
The IITs were forced to make various concessions to fill SC/ST seats this year. Entry levels were lowered to half of what
the last general category student who got through to the IITs scored. So, as the last general category student admitted to
the IITs bagged an overall score of 178 (out of 480), the cut-off for an SC/ST student was brought down to 89 (half of
178). Till last year, the cut-off for SC/ST students used to be 60% of the score of the last genera l category student.
But even this did not help the IITs fill up the quota seats. Close to 1,100 (of the 2,500 seats for reserved category
students) had to be transferred to the preparatory programme, a year-long bridge course to equip these students for
the IITs.
All this makes a 1993 report by ex-IIT Madras director P V Indiresan and ex-IIT Delhi director N C Nigam "extremely
relevant", say IIT faculty members. "Nearly 50% of the reserved seats remain vacant as SC/ST students are unable to
secure the minimum threshold marks. Of those admitted, almost 25% are asked to leave due to poor performance," the
1993 report said.
For general category students, though, little changed in JEE-2009 despite two more IITs opening their gates and the
pool of seats going up. The qualifying score for them slipped marginally from 180 last year to 178 this time, IIT-
Bombay JEE-2009 chairman Amiya Kumar Pani said.
Subject-wise qualifying marks, however, climbed a few notches this year after the IITs altered the manner in which
they computed cu t-offs.
The IITs arrived at the minimum subject-wise scores this year by taking an average of marks of all the candidates
who sat for this competitive exam. IIT-Guwahati director Gautam Barua justified the change in the methodology of
drawing up qua lifying scores by stating that for some years now, the IITs had been trying to arrive at a va lue that was
"reasonable".
"But subject-wise scores hardly matter as none of the students who get in have secured such low marks," explained
IIT-Delhi JEE-2009 chairman R Chattopadhyay.

TEST TAKING TECNNIQUES
A WORD FROM ACCEDE
For COMPETITIVE EXAMES
These Entrance tests are unique in the sense that the attributes to clear it ar more than meet the eye. Not only
is knowledge importance, a capacity to stay cool under time constraints is also required. Intelligence is not no
doubt crucial but a knack for basic common sense plays an equally important role. In the following pages, we
will try to explain these factors and their role i n a successful attempt at the Entrance Examinations.
THE GOLDEN TIPS TO SOLVE A TEST PAPER TO SCORE MAXIMUM MARKS
1. Although each person’s has/his strong/weak areas and tries to attempts the paper as per his/her
strengths /weakness, if possible, you should following points to exploit your potential to the fullest.
2. Always scan the test paper first in about 4 to 8 minutes and t hen only start solving
3. Apply the S-S-S-S- approach – that means Scan- Search- Solve.
4. Always attempt the easiest question in the beginning.
5. Neglect the elements of surprise/tough question in the beginning. The examiners tend to give you the
toughest question in the beginning or the end of a section to frustrate you. Always look for questions, which
are easiest.
6. Do not get stuck on a tough puzzle or reasoning type question.
7. Solve as many questions as you can from the options.8. Develop the art of eliminating wrong answer choices by approximation/intelligent guesses .
9. Be very fast at mental calculations.
10. Do as little rough work as possible as the space given in the examination is very limited.
11. Remember, all these exams demand on your part to strike a very mature balance between speed and
accuracy. If the try to go exceptionally fast, you will commit not only mistakes but blunders if you are too
cautions about your accuracy, you may just fill top reach t he desired cut – off.
12. Finally, the oft repeated advice-read the direction V ERY carefully. Otherwise be ready to lose a lot of marks
otherwise duly deserved.
13. Memory plays the most important role in any Maths based test. Make sure you revise the theory and
standard results at least 5 times before the test.
14. Always try to solve the paper in at Least 3 Rounds: The first round can be of about 15 to 20 min. Where you
will try to solve as many easy question as possible. You must aim at least 30 and even up to 40 to 45 ( If totalnumber of question approx. 100) question to be solved in the first 25 to 30 min. You can so only when you have
an extraordinary memory and you solve these questions as standard results (not by calculations etc)
DETAILS ABOUT ABOVE IMPRTANT TIPS TO OBTAIN HIGH SCORE
1. READ THE DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY
In order to make the best use of the available time and avoid any type of confusion in the understanding of
equations or problems it is essential to read the direction, given in the beginning of the questions or problems,
carefully. Even examinees and examiners have reported that most of the mistakes committed by the examinees
in solving the paper are because of their inadequate comprehension or non- reading of the directions. Many
precious marks can thus be added to your score if you read the directions carefully before you start answering
the questions.
2. GO FAST BUT WITH ACCURACY
Since the time at your disposal is limited, you have to p roceed to mark the answers as quickly as possible. But
rapidity is not t o be aimed at the cost accuracy. Vague understanding of a question is likely to put to loss of
score. Mark the answer in the answer sheet when you become sure that the answer is correct. Thus it is always
advisable to combine quickness in order to be certain about the correctness of your answer.
3. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OVER TOUCH QUESTION
When you are faced with a difficult question or problem, concentrate on it in order to find out the answer. But if
the right answer does not come fourth do not waste time to over it. Skipped over it order to save the time to
solve the questions. Since all the questions carry equal marks, getting bogged down for a long time over the
solution of a difficult question will certainly affect your score adversely within the limited time prescribed.

4. GET BACK TO UNANSWERED QUESTIONS AT THE END
When you have gone over the entire paper and marked your answers which you thought to be correct and still
have, some time left at your disposal, you may get back to the difficult questions you skipped over in the first
attempt. Hurry and worry for solving questions being over, you mid will now work with double the efficiency
and chances are that the questions, which appeared to be d ifficult in the fi rst attempt, may lend themselves to
easy solution.
5. MAINTAIN A CHEERFUL ATTITUDE ALL ALONG
Nothing is more precious while facing a difficult situation or an ordeal of examination than the cheerful mood,
Confidence in yourself and faith in God combined with a cheerful mood help you greatly to win the battle. With
such an attitude you will enable your mid to work with double efficiency. If you are faced with a number of
difficult questions, you need not to be despondent, for none can score 100%. If is competitive examination and
your merit is relative terms not on the basis of absolute score.
6. MARK YOUR A NSWERS IN T HE RIGHT PLACE
Since major part of your paper is of objective in nature, every possible car should be taken to mark your answer
in the appropriate places. Marking in two places or in incorrect places in your answer sheet for one question
will not bring you any credit. It has been seen that more often than not most candidates lose mark because of
faulty marking in the answer sheet. If for some reason or the other wrong marking have been done, it is better
to erase them out before you submit your answer book to the invigilator. Also take car to mark the answer in
the answer sheet in the manner asked for. Sometimes you may be asked to blacken the space provided for the
answer with a lead pencil, It is there that the careful reading of the directions comes in.
7. FOLLOW THE PROCESS OF ELIMINATION
In the case of items where you are doubtful of the answer, you might be able to hit at the correct answer by a
process of selection and rejection or elimination. Mentally reject the answers that are clearly wrong. There
might be some plausible answers. Your previous study might come in the help you to eliminate the incorrect
answers from the plausible answers. THEN CONCENTRATE ON THE REMAINING MOST PROBABLE
answers.
THE CONSOLIDATION PROCESS
· Just for half- hour, close your eyes and think about every possible thing you’ve done since you started
preparing for competitive exams. Try recollection all t he problems you faced (or are facing) and all the s uccesses
(minor and major) you’ve had so far in the process.
· Organize yourself. Once again sort out your study material and see the specific test areas you are good at and
week at.
· If you are honest with yourself, you’ll know how much time and effort your really need to put I vis – a vis
specific areas.
· START ANALYZING AND REVISING ALL THE THEORETICAL CONCEPTS, GOOD CONCEPTUAL
PROBLEMS AND TESTS YOU’VE TAKEN SO FAR. THINK WHERE YOU WENT WRONG AND WHY THE
TOPPER ACTUALLY TOPPED.
· Instead of getting jittery about your weak spots feel happy about strong areas and pray to God that there is
enough of it i n the actual test.
· As we have been discussing in the classroom, you should try to memorize as many standard results as
possible. This really helps you solve a lot o f questions in a very small time.
· Always have in mind that you have to appear for more than one test of same competitive exams
· You might fell a lot of frustration because of the fact that your effort does not translate into good score. Have
patience! It always takes time

THE FACTS
· Although more than 3,00,000 students may take the test, not more than 20,000 would have seriously
prepared so your effective competition is fraction of the sea of humanity you may see at the test centers.
· Don’t be psyched by the scores some of the toppers may be getting. It is a fact that there will be 10%
exceptionally bright students. They are not in your competition. Your actual competition is the above average
serious students and honestly speaking, most of us fall in t hat category.· There is no reason for you to fell that you cannot make it to top – notch IIT – JEE/AIIMS/ENGG./ MEDICAL
college in India.
· Please don’t carry any myths like “If I study 10 hrs per day, I will definitely get through the test” etc. There
are many tangibles a nd intangibles that go into deciding you selections .
