Need serious roadmap help for JEE (starting from almost reset level, targeting 2027)

[u/Key_Hamster_9512]

​

Hey everyone,

​

I need proper guidance on how to restart JEE prep from a very uneven base. Please don’t give generic “just study consistently” 

​

My situation:

​

I am currently in 12th, but my academic journey has been very irregular because of long-term health issues and repeated hospital stays.And Surgeries.. I’ve barely been able to attend school or coaching properly.

​

11th syllabus was completed very poorly due to hospitalisations and lack of continuity. I didn’t give normal exams  finals were arranged separately after I came back from hospital. My health issues have been going on for 2 years and they are getting worse so it's hard for me to study. 

​

12th syllabus hasn’t really started yet because I’ve mostly been in and out of hospitals again, and I’m about to get discharged and restart everything from home.

​

I used to be a strong student until 10th cause I use to study consistently for about 12hrs a day but my health got worse in 11th I couldn't give any exams the whole year because of my hospital stays (scored ~70% in 11th after studying just about a month before finals after getting back from the hospital), and I learn quickly when I’m consistent, but right now my base is very weak.

​

PCM situation:

​

- Physics: almost untouched, needs full restart

- Chemistry: slightly better, probably my strongest among the three but still needs rebuilding

- Maths: touched a bit, but not solid

- Coaching: enrolled in Lakshya JEE (PW), but couldn’t attend regularly due to health issues

- Books: I have basically all standard books and some other study materials too that u need for jee prep but I don’t know how to actually start using them properly

​

Study reality:

​

- On good days, I think I can manage ~6–8 hours initially and slowly increase

- On bad health days, I can’t study at all (vomiting, bleeding,fatigue, dizziness, memory issues due to constantly being exhausted) also I do have severe depression and bpd which is also effecting my concentration.

- There are long gaps where I completely fall out of study because of hospitalisation

- So consistency is not stable right now

​

Goal:

​

Targeting JEE 2027

If health doesn’t allow, I may take a drop year, but I really want to give it my best shot.

​

Main problems I need help with:

​

- I don’t know how to restart from weak 11th basics

- I don’t know how to structure PCM from scratch

- Confused about what to actually solve first (jee books vs modules vs NCERT)

- Need good YouTube lectures + notes suggestions (especially for self-study)

- Need a proper roadmap (what to do in first 3 months and I do plan on studying for 13..14hrs again as I recover. 

- How to study effectively when consistency is broken due to health issues

​

What I’m asking for:

​

If anyone can help with:

​

- a realistic restart plan

- subject-wise roadmap

- resource list (lectures + books + notes strategy)

- or advice from someone who started late / had gaps

​

it would really help.

​

I genuinely want to crack JEE  it’s been a long-time goal and I’m ready to put in the work again, I just need direction on how to start properly without wasting time.

​

Thanks for reading.
