Your performance on the IIT-JEE and NEET competitive exams will determine whether you are admitted to IIT and any of the top medical schools. Children’s golden years have been somehow stolen by the kind of competitiveness that has evolved over time in all fields. They are occupied attending coaching classes and studying for exams that would allow them admittance into the most sought-after institutions across the nation at a time when they ought to be playing and having fun.
What is the appropriate age to begin studying for competitive exams such as IIT-JEE and NEET? This has been and continues to be a highly contentious and heated topic. While some parents believe that children should begin preparing for these exams at a young age, others believe that one or two years of preparation is sufficient. Others believe that a crash course through an institute will provide them with the necessary scores to gain admission to their preferred colleges.
There is no specific age at which you should begin preparing for competitive exams. What matters is conceptual clarity, consistent study, the right study material, a lot of practise, and, of course, perseverance and hard work. Students nowadays have lofty goals and aspire to attend the best colleges in India. Some students begin coaching classes as early as the sixth grade, while others wait until the eleventh grade. Others would rather take a crash course during their vacations. Every person is unique and different, with unique skill sets and capabilities. As a result, we cannot generalise about the appropriate age to begin preparing for competitive exams. It is more important to know how you can go about preparing in the best possible way.
Coaching classes have an advantage in this situation because they can professionally help you prepare for these exams. They show you how to prepare properly so that you can easily pass these exams. Their courses are designed in such a way that they instil confidence in you while assisting you in grasping the fundamental concepts. Coaching classes provide students with the extra mileage needed to achieve a high rank through practise, practise, and more practise. They learn time management skills, which are critical for exam success. They also instil a competitive spirit in the students and provide them with an idea of where they stand on a national scale. Joining coaching classes at a young age helps students develop their skills and gives them the confidence to take competitive exams and do well in them.
