As students nationwide face the daunting task of balancing rigorous entrance exam preparations with their passion for sports and extracurricular activities, FITJEE steps in with a comprehensive approach to navigate this challenge successfully.
The pressure of excelling in competitive exams like JEE or NEET often overshadows the importance of holistic development. Neglecting extracurricular activities can result in a lackluster personality. However, FITJEE underscores the significance of striking a balance between academics and leisure pursuits for overall well-being.
“For instance, Sriyashas Mohan Kalluri, a national-level archer and Khelo India athlete, who achieved a perfect 100 NTA score in JEE Main 2024 Session 1. Similarly, Harshit Singh, an ace basketball player, secured an impressive All India Rank (AIR) 112 in JEE Advanced 2022,” RL Trikha, Director, FIITJEE Group said.
To manage studies and sports effectively, FITJEE advocates for meticulous time management. Crafting a realistic schedule allocating time for JEE studies, sports practice, and extracurriculars is crucial. Setting priorities based on personal goals helps students stay focused.
FITJEE advises students to allocate more time to studies if excelling in the JEE is their top priority while still making room for sports and other activities. Optimizing study sessions by focusing on understanding concepts and utilizing resources like mock tests and question papers enhances preparation.
Incorporating physical activity into daily routines is vital for boosting cognitive function and concentration. Choosing flexible extracurriculars allows intermittent participation without compromising academic obligations.
“Support from teachers, parents, or mentors plays a pivotal role in maintaining a healthy balance,” emphasizes FITJEE. “Self-care amidst the hustle and bustle of preparations is essential. Adequate sleep, healthy eating, and short breaks rejuvenate mind and body.”
FITJEE encourages students to celebrate small victories and believe in their abilities to stay motivated throughout this challenging yet rewarding phase of academic life. Striving for progress and growth in all aspects, they highlight that it’s the journey, not the perfect balance, that matters most.
Achieving balance requires careful planning, discipline, and dedication. FITJEE remains committed to guiding students through this journey, ensuring they thrive academically while nurturing their passions for sports and extracurricular activities.
