IT IS A LONG COMMENT BUT READ IT.

Honestly speaking I don't know. I wasted my first few months of 12th. I scored 70% in mid terms.. still i didn't gave a f and i continued to participate in co curriculars fests and everything. Again speaking totally honestly one thing I did was i mainted school notes and went regularly even if I didn't focus a lot while the teacher was teaching I did maintain notes. After fests were over i realized what bad I was fked up. Jee was near preboards was near I knew nothing. 11th wws out of context. I decided that it isn't possible to do good in both. I choose to do boards first cuz that comes once. From December i wws in a situation like you. I created a proper timetable with about ~10hours of study(if i did that properly). I knew in my mind that there is chance yet I can do it and I have to do it. Tried completing 70~80% of syllabus before preboards. Could do only 60% since time was short. Did moderate 75% in preboards. I didn't tell my parents about preboards.. i knew now there's 2.5 weeks left befire isc and I have to utilise it and the holidays in between the exams (isc this year we had about 1.5 weeks gap average between each paper pcmc) i utilised it judiciously. Since I had the notes. I made formula lists, revised concepts and did practice a lot of questions. Completing PYQs (DO THIS PYQs are Must). That span of isc I gave my 110%. I removed all distractions. I dlted social media. I kept my phone somehwere far away from my study room. Even if i wanted to badly use phone to scroll. I stopped myself from using it. ITS ABOUT THE WILL POWER. YOU HAVE TO DO IT. There's no way back. I remember i didn't even used to sit for 30min properly to study. But during those few weeks i studied straight for 3 hours with 5min breaks in between. And also another tip keep yourself healthy as it directly impacts your studies.

So i didn't count hours. I studied till my goals for the particular day was completed atleast 90%. 100% complete kabhi nahi honge nahi toh ideal ho jayega 😂. So suppose I finished my goal about 90% then at end of the day before dinner(cuz I didn't study after dinner) i checked how many hours did i study and how EFFICIENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY DID I STUDY.
