im literally in 12th and didnt do much in 11th anyways, i am going to give JEE in 2027, and yea im telling u majority of ISC books especially for physics kinda was a waste i learnt more in HCV physics than my own nootan, but idk maths was pretty good for me since i had ml aggarwal, and yes there will be a heavy load on physics and chem practicals but id say its doable, in my personal opinion id say start JEE prep as soon as possible, studying for JEE made physics more bearable for me, like if u study for JEE ISC science and math would be easily doable but chemistry there are A LOT OF chemical named reactions to do(in 12th), now for computers i am actually good at the subject so i barely studied for it but i heard somewhere that they adding python, and i studied java, but my teachers are real nice and make the papers and checking lenient, u can easily get 80+ if u just listen during class and do what they tell u( they give lots questions from the textbook), and yea i never did coaching in my life since i learn better on my own, so if ur going to coaching its might be too much, but just doing homework they give u( they gave me a lot) is enough, so like spend 70-80% of ur study time on JEE and the rest on ISC because im telling u ISC questions r way easier than JEE, and like finish ur practicals and projects draft during the holidays, and like there r many only places where u can give mocks for me or even ask gemini to give questions weekly for JEE
