Which school / college to join
The first question that comes to one’s mind while thinking about his / her career in middle school / high school is, “which stream should I take?” Unfortunately, that’s something I can’t answer.
That’s because simply saying, “choose the stream of your interest” doesn’t work in our country. Firstly, our education system doesn’t provide us enough experience in all the different fields to figure out which one is our field of interest. Still, most of us are pretty clear about what interests us more, maybe not to the extent that we’d wish for, but certainly more than other subjects. That’s a good head start.
Secondly, all streams haven’t grown at the same rate. Some may provide ample job opportunities, and some may not. So, I won’t go on to suggest what you should take. Listen to your mind, figure out your interests, talk to your family, and come up with the answer.
So, if you’ve chosen engineering, the next question is the one in the title of this post, but first you need to get the context, namely, read the relevant articles on https://qualitycustomessays.com I’ll try and answer that.
Choose a school that has compulsory attendance policy – that is, it’s not a dummy school. But make sure it’s not famous (or infamous) for burdening its students with too much work. This may seem contradictory to many popular beliefs, wherein a dummy school is considered the best choice for preparation for JEE. But I choose to differ, because:
1. School brings regularity to one’s life like nothing else can. You won’t wake up everyday at 6 am if it were not for going to school.
2. It also helps in destroying the monotony of the sedentary life that many IIT aspirants live.
3. School teachers and NCERT textbooks always have something good to offer.
As to the coaching, I would suggest one to join a place which has regular classes, and which also provides enough time for self study. Both these are equally important for learning the concepts and proper practice. Preferably join a national level institute so that you are regularly tested at that level, and have an exposure of what a national level exam feels like.
In the end, what matters more than your school and coaching is your dedication and commitment towards your goal and the subjects. If you love studying Physics, Chemistry and Math, you’ll enjoy the ride no matter where you study.
