Online JEE coaching
Instead of going for an online institute, you should opt for a smarter option. It is still a very basal stage of online institute base culture here in India, so going with 3 individual online trainers/coaches who are working synchronously with each other is a far more rewarding option. Additionally, you must look out for other online resources too on your own time.
There are benefits to this model of online JEE coaching:
- You’ll not be bound to take 2–3 classes at a fixed time slot in succession. You can easily manage/alter the classes with these trainers/ coaches
- Class timings and duration will be tailor-made for you. For instance, if you want to have a class for chemistry at 9 pm,you can enjoy the flexibility to arrange your class.
- Highly cost effective and personalized sessions can help you score far better. You can opt for single class or make a group of 2–4 friends, taking classes on Skype
And as for NEET, we suggest for JEE too that you thoroughly read and practice from NCERT books as much as possible and also solve past year papers.
