JEE B.Arch study plan
JEE B.Arch · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 6 hours per week
Aptitude Test (B.Arch.)
Map the Aptitude Test syllabus into a personal checklist of question types (visual analogy, series, odd-one-out, figure rotation, mirror/water image, paper folding, pattern completion)
Solve 60 untimed visual reasoning items and tag every error by cause (misread, slow, guessing)
Build a 3D-visualization habit: sketch front, top, and side views of 5 simple solids from memory
Set up an error log with columns for type, time taken, and error cause
Your checkpoint
A one-page error-cause tally from 60 solved aptitude items plus a 20-item weak-type list
Aptitude Test (B.Arch.)
Drill 80 series and analogy items under a 45-second-per-question cap
Practice 20 mirror-image and water-image problems, checking each by re-drawing the reflection axis
Memorize the counting rules for cubes painted on faces and apply them to 15 problems
Reduce average time per aptitude item to under 50 seconds
Your checkpoint
A timed 30-question aptitude set completed in 25 minutes with a scored accuracy record
Mathematics (B.Arch.)
Rebuild the formula sheet for coordinate geometry: straight lines, circles, conics, distance and section formulae
Solve 40 coordinate-geometry problems mixing locus, tangency, and family-of-lines questions
Practice 3D geometry: direction cosines, plane equations, shortest distance between skew lines
Classify every mistake as concept gap, algebra slip, or time pressure
Your checkpoint
A hand-written formula sheet plus 40 solved coordinate and 3D geometry problems with error tags
Mathematics (B.Arch.)
Work through permutations, combinations, and probability with 50 mixed problems
Apply binomial theorem and sequences/series to 30 problems, emphasizing general-term tricks
Complete a 90-minute full Mathematics mock and review every wrong answer the same day
Identify the three slowest topics and schedule re-drills for them
Your checkpoint
A scored 90-minute Mathematics mock with a written review of every incorrect item
Aptitude Test (B.Arch.) & Mathematics (B.Arch.)
Run two 60-minute mixed aptitude sets to build stamina and pacing
Revisit the week-1 error log and confirm weak types are now solved at target speed
Solve 30 calculus and trigonometric-equation problems under timed conditions
Practice dimensional-analysis and approximation shortcuts to eliminate options in mathematics
Your checkpoint
A comparison table of week-1 versus week-5 aptitude accuracy and time per item
Drawing Test (B.Arch.)
Practice freehand line, curve, and ellipse control for 30 minutes daily
Complete 6 architectural sketching tasks: elevation, plan, and perspective of simple built forms
Draw 4 memory sketches of everyday objects from observation, then re-draw from memory and compare
Learn and apply two-point perspective construction to 3 interior or exterior views
Your checkpoint
A portfolio of 10 dated drawings covering line work, memory sketch, and two-point perspective
Drawing Test (B.Arch.) & Aptitude Test (B.Arch.)
Design and render 2 colour compositions using a limited palette, applying contrast and balance deliberately
Produce 3 design-aptitude responses: poster, logo idea, and abstract pattern from a given theme
Time-box each drawing to the exam's allotted duration and note where time was lost
Re-drill 40 aptitude items from the weakest categories
Your checkpoint
Two timed full drawing sets completed within the exam time limit, self-scored against a checklist
Aptitude Test (B.Arch.) & Mathematics (B.Arch.) & Drawing Test (B.Arch.)
Take 2 full-length simulated tests across all three domains on separate days
Review each simulation within 24 hours and list the top five recurring errors
Final-pass the Mathematics formula sheet and the aptitude error log
Complete one timed drawing set to confirm the final workflow and materials
Your checkpoint
A final one-page revision sheet listing top-five error fixes and the confirmed exam-day drawing sequence
Milestones
