munna asked, what could be last day preparation?

Soumya Banerjee, CEO, Attano answers, (reposting Navin's answer) For last day revision 1. From every chapter identify one experiment, e.g. VanDeGraff generator in electrostatics, Nuclear reactor from modern physics; everyday read one article. This will prepare you for comprehension and help you improve your reading skill in problem. 2.Assign a tentative timing for problems, e.g. assign an hour for 15-20 problems.Remember you have to attempt a problem in three minutes only, paper usually consists of twenty problems in one hour. 3.NEVER NEVER go for repeated reading of notes, it may help in Chemistry but not in Physics. Only numerical solving ( writing work) helps. ACTUALLY NEET requires people who can crack OBJECTIVE problems based on unknown situations. People who have LATERAL THINKING can crack them. Riding ON VEHICLE OF DOUBTS can help you to crack previously known questions only. For god sake fight with the problems that vastly improve your learning. 4. The paper timing must be most brain active timing of yours, ESSENTIALLY SYNCHRONIZE YOUR STUDY HOURS WITH EXAM TIMINGS. 5.For freshers solving last three year paper in stipulated time, his will help you in realizing the basic requirements. 1.
