Treat school as part of prep: Physics and Maths in class line up with JEE. On school days 3–4 focused hours is enough if you do one timed problem set daily. Weekends: one full mock plus review.

I did 2 hours on weekdays and 7 on Sundays and got 97.8 percentile. The review after each mock mattered more than the hours.

Use the Youth4Work JEE topic tests to find weak chapters first, then spend the extra hour there.
