Isa Mentor Necessary in JEE Prep?

Many students drop out of coaching classes within the first 6 months as the one-way communication from lecturer to student does not foster independent thought needed to succeed on the JEE exam. While coaching classes are helpful up to a point for JEE preparation, additional support is needed as the teaching methods used in classrooms are better suited to reproducing material for board exams rather than developing the deeper understanding required for the JEE.

Well, this happens to many students.

As a result, believe it or not, almost 50% drop out or give


up mentally within the first 6 months and almost 80% will stop coming to class by the time the
syllabus gets over!

Essentially, in the current teaching methods used by schools/coaching classes, the


communication is one-way, i.e., from the lecturer to the student, and does not trigger independent
thought which is what you need to do well in the JEE. Therefore, I believe that coaching classes
can handle JEE prep only upto a point and you do need additional supports. Please see Is a
Mentor necessary in JEE prep?

If you observe closely, the teaching methods employed in our class rooms are more suitable for a
Board type exam where you have to reproduce the material taught in the class room and/or what
is given in the text book(s). Therefore, a student need not really understand the material to as
much depth as required in the JEE. After all, if you consider an extreme case, even if you cram
the relevant material
