Main Rajeev Kansal hu a well known Maths tutor on youtube aur me Delhi ke ek goverment school RPVV Lajpat Nagar me Maths tutor bhi hu. Mene abhi tak pichle 10+ years me 10000+ students ko padhaya hai. Aur merese pade kai students ne IIT-JEE exam crack bhi kiya hai and IIT me apni padhai bhi puri ki hai. Inn sabhi bachho se mene unke IIT-JEE preparation ke dino ke experience ko share karne ke liye kaha. Mujhe lagbhag 100+ bachho ne apna experience share kiya. Unhi me se ek bachhi (Prachi) ki story mujhe itni pasand aai ki mene usse apne iss blog me aap sabhi ke saath share karne ke bare me socha.
I spent two intense years preparing for the IIT-JEE, a journey that became so much more than just about an exam. And I’ll admit—ye journey kuchh aisa hai jo bhulna mushkil hai, chahe result kuchh bhi ho. But the question remains: was it worth it? Here’s my story. Special Mention to Physics Wallah jiski youtube videos ne mere backlogs cover karne me madad ki.
Self-Discovery: Pehli Cheez Jo Maine Seekhi, Woh Tha Khud Ko Samajhna
I started my IIT prep right after class 10, aur us waqt bas yeh socha tha ke main kisi bhi haalat mein IIT nikaal lunga. But as days turned into months, I realized ki ye journey khud ko samajhne ki bhi thi. Bahut baar physics ya math ka ek question solve karte hue main apne potential ko question karta tha—can I really do this? Slowly, maine samjha ki mera sabse bada competitor aur motivator main khud hi hoon.
Time Management aur Risk Control: JEE Ne Ye Do Bahut Badi Skills Sikhayi
Kya aapko pata hai ke ek IIT-JEE aspirant ke daily schedule mein kitne tasks hote hain? Coaching classes, self-study, mock tests—aur sab kuchh specific time par khatam karna hota hai. Time management bahut zaroori ho jaata hai, warna syllabus kabhi khatam nahi hota. Ek aur important skill jo JEE ne sikhayi wo thi risk control. Multiple choice questions ke saath gambling nahi chalti—jo aata hai wohi karo, warna -1 milne mein time nahi lagta!
Consistent Effort aur Hard Work Ki Kahani: Kya Hard Work Kabhi Waste Jaata Hai?
Ek chhoti si story share karta hoon. JEE Mains ke mock tests mein main consistently low marks laa raha tha chemistry mein. Last ek din mein bhi itni galatiyan nikal rahi thi ki confidence bilkul hil gaya tha. But phir bhi, mehnat karta raha, bina kisi negative thought ke. Exam ke din, chemistry mein kuch galtiyan zaroor hui, but us consistency ki wajah se main maths aur physics mein apne aap ko sambhal paya. Ye realization hua ki hard work kabhi waste nahi jaata. Aaj main JEE ka result padh kar chahe IIT mein nahi ja paaya hoon, par ye safar mere liye ek bade confidence booster ki tarah kaam karta hai.
Life Lessons: Hope Ko Kabhi Chhodna Nahi Chahiye
Agar JEE preparation ne ek cheez sikhayi, to wo hai hope ka importance. Bahut baar aisa hota hai ki starting ke kuch questions galat ho jaate hain aur stress badhne lagta hai. Us waqt, agar patience aur hope maintain rakhein to situation sambhal sakti hai. Yeh skill JEE se mujhe life ke liye bhi mil gayi, kyunki kabhi kabhi life mein bhi starting failures hote hain. Lekin JEE ne yeh bhi sikhaya ki agar aapne initial 10 minute mein kuchh galat kiya hai, to pure exam ka future us par depend nahi karta.
Recommendation – Kya bina tuition ke class top kar sakte hai in 2025
Friendships aur Mentorship: Connections Banane Ka Mauka during IIT journey
Aur ek unexpected aspect jo mujhe JEE preparation se mila wo hai dosti aur mentorship. Mere FIITJEE ke teachers aur doston ke saath woh struggle aur success ki stories share karna ek alag hi maza tha. Bhale hi hamari competitive rivalry thi, par ek student ke mindset aur hard work ko sirf ek aspirant hi samajh sakta hai. Ab bhi hum log WhatsApp pe chat karte hain, aur wahi exams ki yaadein aur teachers ke jokes yaad aate hain.
The Negative Side of IIT-JEE Exam preparation: Creativity khatam ho gyi?
Ek cheez zaroor missing thi JEE ki is race mein—woh thi creativity aur critical thinking. Physics ke concepts aur Maths ke complex equations se toh dosti ho gayi thi, par unke peeche ka “kyun” samajhne ka waqt kabhi nahi mila. Yeh sab kuch sirf ranks aur marks ke liye tha, aur kabhi kabhi sochta hoon ki shayad creativity thodi affected hui hai. Lekin mere mentors kehte hain ki college mein phir se yeh wapas aa jaayega, toh yeh bhi ek new hope hai.
Conclusion: Was it Worth It?
JEE preparation ek tough journey thi, par mujhe lagta hai ki life ke kuch sabse bade lessons maine wahi se seekhe. Time management, resilience, self-belief, aur consistency ne sirf ek exam ke liye nahi, balki life ke har part mein mujhe prepare kiya. IIT ka result chahe jo bhi raha ho, lekin jo bhi bachche is exam ki taiyaari karte hain, unko definitely ek alag perspective aur attitude milta hai life mein. Har aspirant deserves a pat on the back, kyunki IIT nikaalna sirf ek journey ka end nahi, balki bahut saari nayi beginnings ka shuruaat bhi ho sakta hai.
Itna bada blog padkar ab to aapko bhi samajh aa gya hoga ki life me hardwork agar karoge to vo kabhi waste nhi jayega. Aapne Steve Jobs ka Steve Jobs’ 2005 Stanford video agar dekha ho to usme sabse popular line yahi thi “You can’t connect the Dots looking Forward, you can only connect them looking Backwards” – Steve Jobs. Agar aapko abhi bhi koi doubts hai to please niche di Steve Job ki video jarur dekhna. Aapko samajh aa jayega ki sach me kya aapko IIT-JEE exam ki tayari karni chahiye ya nhi
