Following is the plan
for this week :
MATHEMATICS :
This week, we will
cover one of the most important chapters on Algebra – Complex Numbers and a bit
of Quadratic equations. Refer the book Eduwiser’s Algebra by Prof. K. C. Sinha
for both the above chapters. Since you have already covered Complex Numbers in
Class XI, move straight to Section II. Go through the “Summary of Results”
thoroughly. If you find difficulty with any of the concepts in “Summary of
Results”, refer Section I for explanations. Go through the “Worked Out Examples”
except those “Prove that” ones that are more than a page long. Solve all the “Worked
Out Examples” of New Pattern Questions.
Solve each of the
subjective questions in exercise (there are just 20 of them). With the Straight
Objective Type Questions, try to time your attempts (say 10 questions at one go).
This will help build your speed. You will also find “Questions Asked in IIT-JEE”
at the end of the book. Try to solve each question yourself independent of the
time the questions take.
While going through
Complex Numbers, try to build some analogy with Coordinate Geometry. This will
make things easier when solving questions based on Argand Plane. Always make a
figure before you start solving because it will give you a better understanding
of the problem. This chapter should take you fifteen hours of time.
Once you are done
with Complex Numbers, start with Section II of Quadratic Equations. Follow the
same strategy as with Complex Numbers. By the end of this week, you should
finish “Summary of Results” and “Worked Out Examples” of this chapter. Special
attention and time should be given to the concept and problems on “Sign
scheme”. This will consume seven hours of your time.
At any time during
the week, you should find about four hours of time to solve questions of
Coordinate Geometry and Straight Lines from the practice book - Eduwiser’s Mathematics for AIEEE by Prof. K.
C. Sinha. This book also has questions asked in various competitive
examinations (like IIT-JEE, AIEEE, West Bengal JEE, Orissa JEE, Karnataka CET,
Kerala CET, etc.) and one needs to solve these questions to better his/her
chances of qualifying JEE Mains. Try to take timed tests of yours with the
questions of this book. Many questions have been directly asked from this book
in past competitive examinations.
CHEMISTRY :
For Physical
Chemistry this week, we will keep it light with the following topics – Concept
of atoms and molecules; Dalton’s atomic theory; Mole Concept; Chemical
Formulae; Balanced Chemical Equations; Calculations based on mole concept
involving common oxidation-reduction, neutralization and displacement
reactions; Concentration in terms of mole fraction, molarity, molality and
normality. The theory and Worked Out Examples of the above topics can be
covered from Dr. A. K. Ghosh’s Physical Chemistry from Good Books publishers
followed by Worked Out Examples only from Dr. P. Bahadur’s book. If you do not
have Dr. A. K. Ghosh’s book, you can work out questions from Dr. R. C.
Mukherjee’s book.
Try solving new
pattern questions from your Coaching Classes course material. Physical
Chemistry will take away ten hours of your time this week.
For Organic
Chemistry, we will wrap up Reactions of Benzene – Structure and aromaticity;
Electrophilic substitution reactions : halogenation, nitration, sulphonation,
Friedel-Crafts alkylation and acylation; Effect of o-, m- and p-directing
groups in monosubstituted benzenes. We will also have enough time to finish the
following topics from Phenols – Acidity; Electrophylic substitution reactions
(halogenation, nitration and sulphonation,); Riemer-Tieman reaction and Kolbe
reaction. You could again use your Coaching Classes course material for the
above or Prof. S. Lal’s Organic Chemistry from Good Books publishers. You
should refer Organic Chemistry by Finar or Morrison and Boyd for any concept
that you do not understand. There is another book - Solution to Morrison and
Boyd. This book is very useful to have as it has solutions to questions that
are there in Morrison and Boyd.
Organic Chemistry
should take about ten hours of your time this week.
In Inorganic
Chemistry this week, you should finish Extractive Metallurgy – Chemical
principles and reactions only (industrial details excluded); Carbon reduction
method (iron and tin); Self-reduction method (copper and lead); Electrolytic
reduction method (magnesium and aluminium) and Cyanide process (silver and
gold) from your Coaching Classes course material or NCERT books. This should
take another eight hours of your time.
PHYSICS :
This week, cover the
topic Heating Effect of Current from the chapter Thermal and Chemical Effects
of Electric Current from Dr. H. C. Verma’s Concepts of Physics – Vol. 2. You do
not need to read through or solve questions from portions other than Heating Effect
from the same chapter. This should hardly take four hours of your time.
Start the chapter on
Magnetic Field from the same book. Give enough time for the theory portion
because once you are clear with the theory part, solving any kind of question
from this chapter will be a cake walk. You have to clear all your doubts in the
theory of this chapter at once. Read through the “Worked Out Examples” instead
of solving them. You need to solve each question of the exercise. If there is
any question you cannot solve from the exercise, give it another try after we
finish the chapter on Electromagnetic Induction in future. At this point of time,
you need not worry about solving new pattern questions of this chapter from any
source. This chapter will take about twelve hours of your time.
