A course which gives right basics and applications of basics at school level is Foundation Course. Foundation course inculcates inquistiveness in the subjects. This course provides a proper foundation for future competative exams.

A typical JEE(Main) preparation may not require any extra year(s) beyond the 10+2 course. And within the 10+2, a student takes coaching to crack JEE.

Each student has his/her own way of preparing for the exam. On an average, adding about 4 hours of self-study to the usual coaching hours may help.

Close to Rs. 18 lakh for CSE(2014-15 data). This figure should be a sufficeint indication to prove the worth of getting educated in the IITs.

By taking coaching from good institute and with sustained efforts

A 10+2 or equivalent examination, followed by cracking the JEE(Main & Advanced)

By taking coaching from good institutes and with sustained efforts. The 10+2 syllabus and the JEE(Main) syllabus have more than 95% of the subject common. All that we find as difference is the kind of orientation that is required for the two exams. The board exam requires a descriptive answering and has no negative marking, while the JEE requires only objective type of answering with negative marking.

Coaching is usually required to crack the JEE(Main) & JEE(Advanced) entrance exams to gain entry into the IITs.

It is worth noting that IIT is just one set of Institutes that offers B.Tech courses. The advantage lies in the fact that it is the most premier of all the Institutes in India. The infrastructure, the ambience, the teaching community, the peer group and the pay package that a student is offered -- are all high.

These batches are known as Foundation batches.
