Preparation Tips For KEAM Mathematics

  • The mathematics paper will be conducted exclusively on a fresh date. This says how much importance it is going to carry in the final score.
  • One should not give too much importance to the calculation steps because no one cares about the steps, you need to crack the answer at the end.
  • Give most importance to the algebra, calculus and geometry units.
  • Students should be familiar with all the formulae. We suggest you prepare flash cards and thoroughly go through them on the last day of your preparations.
  • The circles and family of circles in the geometry unit are very important.
  • Be strong in the trigonometry unit because direct questions are expected.
  • Algebra unit will decide the fate of a candidate. Hence, never leave room for confusion.
