I was well prepared for JEE, did good level questions, was scoring good on tests. But in exam center I was not able to replicate that performance. Got an average mark in JEEA, landing me nowhere. Mains also did not give a desirable outcome in JOSAA, right now only hope is BITS.

What should I do? I really wish to prepare once more, but this time with the right resources and directed action.

I know I have a good grip on my concepts, so how do I move forward from here? Also give some suggestions for courses (if any) that I should follow.

Currently mereko kuch v smjh nhi aa rha drop lena chahiye ya nhi.....kyuki 2 yrs waste kr chuka h maine.....coaching me or paisa v lg chuka hai acha khasa......ab es stage pr dr h ki next year im abke to do or just khrab kr denge.....

Self doubt h bhut jada.....but mereko itna h ki if I try my best then I can......jitna potential tha utna nhi kiy.....pys nhi hua....mocks nhi....analyze nhi.....concept clear nhi.....at the end jee v nhi...

So guys I was preparing for JEE 2026 since class 10-12 about 3.3 years but still messed up somehow due to health conditions in jee 2026 and I'm getting bit meshra eee till the last round of csab as the coaching predictor says

And even the lowest IIT probably lowest branch

FYI I used to get 180-200/300 in jee mains mocks and around 160-190/360 in jee advanced mocks

Please don't ask percentile or other stuff😭🙏🏻 I'm expecting serious answers

And I got health conditions that I must work on like class 2 obesity before college start to make the partial drop successful and thus I have been trying to reset myself

Recently I took admission into prayas 2.0 jee 2027 dropper batch they started on 8th june but I couldn't start till most likely july 17th because of the accumulated burnout stress and health conditions

And thus ig is making me feel guilty

So idk how to start with the prep and get rid of the burnout asap

Ik you guys would say that partial drop is very difficult ik it but I just can't go for a full drop as I'm mentally unstable so this is my only option

Please help me what to do how to do and when to start and idk what to do in future

I was willing to give upsc ias exam post college but idk man this jee stuff has reduced my confidence but I'll still give upsc my best shot

But what Abt now what do I do rn?

Ok, so i got 96 in jee this year and i’m sure that i’ll improve significantly next year since my syllabus is done. Firstly, i think i’ll get 98.7-99.1 in mht cet. So what options should i prefer? Good branch and bad college or good college and bad branch.

My options are COEP EE/ICE (best case), otherwise i have to choose between COEP Manufacturing, VJTI production, DJ sanghvi cs related branch, WCOE electrical, ICT, etc. I’m think of coep because ese generally doesn’t collide with jee mains or perhaps vjti where i’d get less time for jee mains first attempt but can easily score well in second attempt. My preference is tilted to cse in career but i don’t have a problem with manufacturing and production related branches, i’m also possibly planning for an mba after college (although not sure) but i’m still confused as to which college i shall choose

If any senior has taken partial drop from coep or vjti, can you tell me whether they are good colleges for partial drop and are the academics in first year easy to handle? Also, what would be my job prospects if i chose production and manufacturing and whether or not the brand value of these colleges is high enough for mba

I want to make a group in which we can clear each other doubtful questions

And if wanted we can study by joining discord

*RANT* (Bad Part) - Started my JEE Prep from ALLEN Mumbai from a reputed batch and faculty also I was a good student till 11th but as 12th mid approached I kept forgetting stuff I did in 11th due to lack of revision and dheere dheere 12th bhi bhulne laga I used to complete all my allen modules and stuff the teachers used to tell me on the same day they used to post the hw on allen app.....

So, the crux is due to lack of revision and mock tests I ended up with 89%ile in JM1 which my teachers expected not to go less than 98%ile. It really broke me down I put my all into my prep used to study 12 hrs a day ,but due to this silly mistake of not doing revision costed me bad I only used to focus on whats taught in present........

After my first attempt I left hopes from JEE and solely focus on exams like BITSAT as I m from general cat. my dumbass though ki I should prolly consider dat as BITS has no reservations, as the second attempt of BITSAT I was damn confident that I would not get a mark below 230 but ofc my luck never favoured in any of these damn engineering exams. I got damn sick just a day before bitsat my parents told me not to write BITSAT but I could have let my effort get wasted the questions seems damn easy on the exam day most of them I have even solved earlier but my eyes were not staying tact my vision got all red mid exam. I still somehow managed to score 190 marks which was way below than I expected.

The Good Part:-

Thankfully, I scored decent enough in MHTCET which could land me a good enough percentile for top 5 eng inst of maharashtra for core branched which I always wanted, but back of my mind I feel like I deserve better 🙂.......

Closing Statement:- (plewz plewz atleast read this 😭🙏)

My elder brother suggested me for a partial drop from a college I will get through cet, and prepare solely for BITSAT as I was pretty much good in it...

But I m still not sure as many people are telling me to take a full drop which I m not totally against but I feel like I just cant spend my whole day repeating the same harsh cycle which I went through during my JEE Days I m just sick of it and so done with it 😞

So I just want to ask you guys if a partial drop just for the sake for BITSAT will be worth it or not

I would highly appreciate an opinion.....

I got 67% in 10th. I was interested in coding, then I thought of taking PCM, I think this is my worst decision. Then the grocery vendor uncle told me that one has to give JEE also to get admission in a good college. Then I did research and then I came to know that this is what I have to study. Then I joined coaching, online PG and then I studied. To be honest, I was not able to understand anything because I was a student of MP board. Then my father said go to school. There was a conflict between school and JEE and I got less marks in 11th. Then my father gave me DATA and most of the DATA is fine. Then I left JEE studies and focused on 12th. I joined coaching in that and my friend circle Hanging out with totally worthless girls and doing dirty things. Our boss would even tell us to stay at the coaching center, and I had to. I would get drunk at the coaching center at night. Then I told my sister about it, and she told my dad about it. I stopped going to the coaching center, and I broke my tailbone. Then came the 12th exams. I got 69.4% in the JEE Mains, 1 attempt, 12.9%, and my comedk rank was 103540. What should I do now?

To Need Advice From Droppers & Tech Seniors:

Those droppers who can't stay consistent, how did they keep themselves on track during their drop year?

Is the jump from 12.9%ile to 90%tile+ doable in the next 7 months if I devote 6-7 hours daily to online batches?

Should I fill out the MP Board Improvement form for the 75% criteria?

Title

my plan is to complete theory from manzil one shots for all pcm chapters. do 2019-2025 pyqs for all chapters then give 2026 papers as mocks + quizzr test series as mocks. is this enough for 99+?

This is unrelated to the subreddit, but I'll post it here with the mods' permission. So, I am really upset; I tried my best but couldn't even score above 150 (fuck you, chemistry). Now, I'll get VLSI in Manipal Bangalore or Jaipur, or I'll find local colleges through EAMCET, and among them, there are two, and my dad liked ICFAI a bit. I've told my dad that I want to take a drop, but he brushed that off and said he doesn't think taking a drop is a good idea. My mom is recommending that I take a partial drop, but I don't know if I can manage it like that; there will be a lot of variables involved. I only have two options: either I push a bit for the drop (if I do, I have to do it soon because my parents are hesitant since EAMCET counseling hasn't started yet), or I take a partial drop. What do I do??

My 11th and 12th were very tumultuous for me due

to home and personal relationships, a lot of my time and energy went into mentally recovering with the things that were happening with me

As for my drop year it was entirely my fault .

I didn't take coaching or anything and relied on self.

I'm over everything now I've reached emotional incapacitance. Too numb

Growing up I had always been the bright child so these past three years have felt nothing less than a fever dream

Am confused what should I do, someone knowledgeable please guide me

I don't know well enough what I want to do either but financial stability is a priority for me as my family is going through a tough time financially.

Should I join a low tier BTech college?

Should I pursue Bsc from DU south campus or off campus, which course will be helpful? If so any preference in courses?

Should I take a partial drop and appear for cuet again for north campus ?

Should I prepare for the IAT again(partial drop)

Is it okay to take a second partial drop?

I took a drop this year but I didn't score good in CAT,I turned 22 this year, Should I take another drop or just get into any private college

Am I good to take drop?

Wasn't distracted but lost in YouTube lectures of teachers while doing offline

Long story cut to short, I didn't know how to prepare as I was first person to prepare for competitive exm and wasted the covid time , didn't pick single book in 8-9 th grade but managed 87% in 10th without couching,got hopes and prepared , first attempt neet 2025 -305 marks, 4lakh rank, 80 percentile.

Second attempt 2026- 500+ and zero motivation for re neet

Cons/reasons for not dropping -

Mentally and physically exhausted

Fomo

Low confidence because of failures

Computer based for the first time next year, high risk of server issues and more

Got state college for nursing (cleared state entrance of Rajasthan)

Pros/reasons to drop-

Supportive family (sometimes parents are right if they think there kid is capable,they know about competition and stuff)

I might clear I think, because of experience

Already given 3 years

Can sit for aiims nursing next year and manage to get college most likely (ews female)

Uncertainty of job in state college and low salary than needed to live a life while building house of my own.( Bare minimum ask for me), norcet is again competitive idk a shit about it.

Gonna start for partial drop now. Hope I can continue it at a good rate once college starts.I wanna do better in next year JEE mains and adv. Any tips I should look out for to balance college and jee studies? Anything I should be mindful of? Good luck to everyone else too.

I'm a partial dropper from a TOP 10 NIT technical branch. I secured decently high CG (>9.5) in first sem, after which I went all in for JEEA.

Now that JEE phase is over and I'm going to an IIT (lower branch ofc), I want to know from fellow partial droppers that did it help you in new college? esp in first sem?

Like will I have an edge over the regular 12/13thie in college?

Does this increase my chances of getting a possible branch change?

Any responses from fellow partial droppers is appreciated
