Building the revision plan of Physics for JEE
In your JEE Main 2024 exam pattern, the Physics section takes first place in the question paper. As you must be aware that the Physics subject is the highly competitive section and scoring well marks in the subject should be easy and quick if you are able to tightly hold the concepts. So, before jumping to the last-minute preparation of the Physics subject, let us look at the syllabus of the subject first.
JEE Main 2024 Physics Syllabus
The complete syllabus for Physics carries a weightage of 30 marks on the JEE Main exam 2024. The Physics syllabus is further divided into two components Part A and Part B. Part A will test your theoretical knowledge and carry 80% weightage whereas Part B tests your practical component and has 20% weightage. There will be no change in JEE Main exam syllabus and pattern for every subject. I am providing you with a revision plan for the subject Physics for 1-month preparation.
