Yes, it is an easy task if you do not panic or stress over both. As we know the syllabus for both JEE main and 10+2 is the same therefore it is easy if you have your basics clear. If you see some of the previous JEE Main analysis most of the questions are from class 11th.
However, in class 12th board exams questions are concentrated from class 12th syllabus only. Here lies the difference. For JEE Main you will have to cover both class 11th and 12th syllabus. Let us look forward on how to actually balance both JEE Main 2019 and Board exams.
5 Steps to balance JEE Main and Board Exams
Tip #1: The very first thing you should do to balance both these exams every day is to solve at least 50 to 100 MCQs form PCM and also revise at least one subject from PCM as per your school or coaching.
Tip #2: Make a time table for days when you have a holiday also when you have school as well as coaching and days when you have school but no coaching or vice versa. Mark hours for self-study accordingly as it is important to revise.
Tip #3: Do take out time for class 11th revision at least 1 hour every day so that you can revise important topics from class 11th NCERT. This you can start when you are 80% done with your board’s preparation.
Tip #4: Practice is the key, keep practicing formula-based questions as it will help you in both the exams JEE Main mostly has formula-based questions whereas there are many questions in boards where you have to derive these formulae.
Tip #5: JEE Main Mock test, when we had a conversation with JEE Main toppers most of them told us that at the end of their preparations they took a lot of Mock tests. It actually helped them build confidence.
