Poor Time Management: If you look at the JEE syllabus, it would take years for any JEE aspirants to finish the syllabus. But here is the real take on, allocate time on topics or need basis and get yourself glued to the plan.
Choosing Wrong Coaching Institutes: Students as well as parents fall for huge promises and advertisements while choosing a coaching institute. Better judge and look into pros and cons before shelling out your hard earned money.
