I have observed some very good students who do not opt IIT-JEE as a career option despite of that fact that they have done very well in conventional exams, because they suffer from the IIT phobia (it is very tough and difficult.)
Factors Responsible:
1.Many a times some parents take a conservative view and discourage their wards by inculcating inferiority complex and comparing their performance with others tudents.
2.The media also creates hype about the complexities in IIT-JEE, which disturbs and discourages the young mind.
3. Many a times some teachers also, unknowingly discourage the students by discussing a typical problem in abstract.
4.General public may also discourage and disappoint genuine students because of misconceived notions.
5.On their own also, even good students get disheartened by wrongly trying tricky questions.
How to overcome this phobia:
1.Dear students, try to understand that phobia is false fear, so it is completely a misplaced misunderstanding.
2.Keep this in mind that the syllabus of Board Examination and IIT-JEE are not different. No doubt IIT-JEE is a different examination from the conventional board examination but it is not antithetical to the board preparation. Some supplementary input needs to be given for tackling the objective and subjective questions of IITs.
3.Be sure that once the basic concepts become clear, the path becomes easy.
4.So with proper guidance, motivation, continuous and regular effort most of the students can utilise their inherent capacity to become a ranker in the IIT-JEE.
