Yes. Students can still aim for IITs and NITs, but Mathematics cannot be neglected as it is a compulsory component of JEE Main and JEE Advanced. Start by strengthening NCERT concepts, particularly in Algebra, Calculus, Coordinate Geometry and Trigonometry. Practise questions progressively, from basic applications to JEE-level problems. Maintain an error log to identify recurring mistakes and dedicate time to Mathematics every day. Consistency and conceptual clarity are more useful than attempting difficult questions without understanding the fundamentals.
