Anonymous: I am in class 11 and started preparation for IIT.
I am distracted as well as in backlog. How can I overcome this?
Hi, backlog is created when you don't complete the daily work.
Start completing daily classes and DPPs (daily practice problems) on time. This way more backlog won't be created.
And start sparing time for the backlog.
You will have to slog at least eight hours every day apart from classroom teaching.
To avoid distractions, always study at a table while sitting on a chair; it helps in keeping up the study temperament.
While studying, keep all gadgets away they are the biggest distraction. Try the deep breathing technique, it will help.

Anonymous: My daughter is getting IIT-Bhilai mechanical, Sardar Patel College (Mumbai) CS (computer science) branch and BITS Goa for CS. What should she go for?
Hello. Congratulations on getting such good scores and excellent choices in hand.
If you seek an IIT brand for life, go for IIT-Bhilai but you may have to compromise on the branch.
Both the Sardar Patel College and the Birla Institute of Technology and Science are good.
At BITS, fees are higher. Both have good placements.
