Weak at maths ? Here is what you should do

Firstly identify where are you going wrong

Are you forgetting formulae in exam ?

  • Make a sheet enlisting all important formulae.

Are you making silly mistakes in the questions you already know ??

  • Make sure to learn from the silly mistake and ensure that you do not repeat it.

Are you not able to solve certain types of questions ?

  • Make sure to do ample of questions of that type.

Are you not able to solve problems of a particular chapter ?

  • Make sure you saturate yourself with all possible problems of that chapter from all available standard textbooks.

Are you not able to solve questions fast ?

  • Make sure you do regular revision and practice questions with a clock beside you to time yourself.

I hope that will help you
The idea is to analyse every paper you solve. Analyse your mistakes. Think of questions like

  1. Where did I go wrong ?
  2. Did I make silly mistake ?
  3. Is there a particular chapter whose questions you weren't able to do ?
These questions will surely help you find the issue and you are sure to do better.
All the best for JEE advanced :)
