How holistically you have addressed such diverse dimensions; ideal friends, some exercise, proper sleep in 90 minutes cycle, extracurricular activities and less time in social media. Thank you sir for making us remember all these points again. It was really refreshing to listen to your valuable words. I hope you are doing well, professor!
Thank you Abeera! All shared from personal experiences. I hope freshers will also be able to relate.
@Prof_JC Yes sir, absolutely. Since it's coming from your personal experience, it was so honest and genuine, as always.
These words are so important not just for freshers but for anyone in general. (Final semester exams are on and this video just made me a little calm).

Only one doubt what should I Choose
University of Hyderabad (MATERIAL SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING)
IIIT MANIPUR (CSE/ECE)
NIT Srinagar Civil/Metallurgical engineering.
Please Sir suggest me the right preference order !@@Prof_JC
I wish I had a teacher like you. All I had were robots without humanity.....May God bless u sir
1. Choose your friends wisely and stick to these friends throughout college.
2. Take care of your health and do not take it for granted. Sleep, food and exercise should be a priority.
3. Have a fixed sleep schedule and do not mess with it at any cost.
4. Extra-curricular activities are great to explore but academics should be a top priority. But always keep atleast one such activity.
5. Social Media is addictive and keep it under check

I noticed something in the background that he keeps the reciever of the telephone away from the actual place so that it would not ring when he is recording a video. this is a very small thing but it still makes a difference by eliminating any sort of problems that could happen while recording.
Have noticed this. Prof JC's commitment is admirable. Would be a privilege to meet him
Sleep occurs in five stages: wake, N1, N2, N3, and REM. Stages N1 to N3 are considered non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, with each stage leading to progressively deeper sleep. Approximately 75% of sleep is spent in the NREM stages, with the majority spent in the N2 stage.A typical night's sleep consists of 4 to 5 sleep cycles, with the progression of sleep stages in the following order: N1, N2, N3, N2, REM.A complete sleep cycle takes roughly 90 to 110 minutes. The first REM period is short, and as the night progresses, longer periods of REM and decreased time in deep sleep (NREM) occur.
Thanks for sharing the information!

This video is better than mostly all videos made on this topic. Thank you sir for this informative and motivating video right on the time when we needed this the most. Love from kolkata ❤
Good evening Sir,
I will be joining Data Science and Artificial Intelligence course in IIT Guwahati.
I am looking forward to giving my best in these 4 years and work hard to achieve my goals. TIll now I only set Academic Goals in my life for myself. But from now on I will be setting spiritual, mental, physical, communication goals too.
All the best!
isnt that the online BSc porgram?
@@badribishaldas9627 aap sirf yhi degree kroge ya koi offline degree bhi?
yeah i have researched about this degree too and i just passed 12th and looking forward whether to join this or any offline@@architbhagat
Glad that I've cared for my health so far and later learnt that sleep needs to be prioritized more than just saying it.
Sir please make videos on all such things that you have in mind. Even though I've completed my first year, it will still help me.
Thank you so much, you are someone who has helped more than anyone else.🙏🏻
Thank you for the suggestion. I am thinking of another video on the Academic points.

00:02 Building strong, selective friendships is key for college success.
01:57 Diversity in friendships is important for personal growth.
03:47 Have reliable friends who can take care of you in emergencies and prioritize health.
05:45 Regularity in food, exercise, and sleep is crucial for your well-being in college
07:46 Understanding sleep cycles for better rest
09:41 Engage in extracurricular activities for a well-rounded college experience.
11:35 Be conscious of social media addiction
13:41 Curate your social media feed to avoid mental fatigue
Thanks for the summary!

Thanks for the summary
Speaking about friends bring smiles on the face...👌
Glad you noticed that!
The 90 minute cycle is called Ultradian cycle and is a scientific thing indeed.
Thank you for such an insightful video, Sir.
Sir your explaining power is brilliant
It's very simple, straight upto the point and brief.
You are a blessing for us sir
i am joining IIEST shibpur IT from 14th august. much appreciated for the effort you make doing these videos. hoping i shall have professors like you in college.
13:36 I've just completed 12th grade, now applying for colleges, I completely agree with this. Since the past year or so, I have become averse to all such distractions. I can sit for however long I want to with absolute focus, with my phone and laptop being right beside me all the while. I don't even need to switch them off to disable me from using them (I have notifs turned off by the way). Also, when I use something like UA-cam to learn something, I don't get shifted off track or distracted by UA-cam's alluring collection of videos. I simply take in the information I need, and exit the app. (lol I know I'm bragging about this but what I claim is true)
Really well done! Keep up the focus.

Please Sir suggest me the right preference order !
. Have a good network of frnds, not necessarily tge quantity but the quality. Frnds from whom u can also learn & upgrade skills
. Have atleast 1-2 such frnds whom u can call at middle of even night on emergency
. HEALTH: imp of health will be realised when it is lost, so before it gets lost, be conscious about ur health. Food of mess is not much nutritious, so at least be regular at ur meals, this regularity will also help ur body & try to eat healthy food
Also focus on exercise ( at least do cycling)
. SLEEP
Allnighter - someone who works all the night & still conscious the nxt day & not who sleeps the nxt whole day
It is a good skill while u r hustling but better avoid it
.extracurricular activities are in "EXTRA" , the primary focus should be our curriculum, after that u can go for extra. And atleast have one engaging extra curricular activity to get a whole college life experience
. Don't just keep scrolling social media ( solution - have some target in life)
Thank you, sir!
Your valuable advice will stay with me as I navigate hostel life.
I'm starting Computer Science and Engineering this year, and I look forward to more informative videos that will continue to assist me. 🙏
All the best!
@@Prof_JC Thank You, Sir!
Thank you so much professor fir your valuable advices.I m also going to join college in next months.I hope you will also create a dedicated academic video as well .I m grateful for your advice ❤
1. Health
2. Friends
3. Sleep
4.extra curricular activities.
5. Social media.
My intake form profs' advice are:
1.Indulge in Organic Friendship rather than business/professional relationsor just for connections,
2.Good Sleep,
3.Regular Physical workout (like cycling around campus will suffice though), Regulate Good Health,
4.Mindful activity (post academic fulfillment/req),
5.Proper Meal (hostel schedule is fine too),
6.utilize social media/internet for learning/exploring rather than mindless scrolling & avoid time sinking!!
Also sir we need your mindful insights on certain issues like:
-how to handle competitions among peers positively without getting jealous/sour
-handling multiple academic load like learning something new with current assignment deadlines & so on..
-how to avoid placement related anxiety while just focus on getting good grades/cgpa & want to take my choices of courses like ML, AI, CV etc where grading is really tough..it might affect cgpa, but wanted to learn!
-how to approach & have conversations with professors (specifically IITD profs, tbh i found them unfriendly/unhappy/rude unnecessarily;)
You are in which branch in IITD?Profs in Material Science are cool here. If you are from circuital branch like EE,ECE ,let me tell you that profs in Electrical background are grumpy in every iit/nit :)

Your Are The Best professor Sir . Every institute need professor's like you. Hat's Off to you Sir.
Great set of message, Sir. Will pass on this video to my son who is entering his college life in the next few days
Thank you sir for sharing this.Teachers like you are the backbone of students. Unluckily as a dropper could not made to iit(got 24k rank). But still whichever college I go I seek your blessings and such informative videos to guide us. Pressntly I'm very confused as if I'll get some iiit or newer nit as cutoffs for round 2 and 3 are almost identical.. But still hoping for the best 🤞🤞🤞
Sir please make a video sharing details about the murder case of Faizan from IIT KGP, since he was a student of Mechanical engineering department. And you perhaps being his professor would better tell us more about his being in this institute.
He just can't do that he has a job to continue
He wont be able to talk about such matters bhai
Nice one, sir! This is one of the first video of yours that I am watching. I am joining college too to pursue science. I really liked that the advice was practical :)
Good morning sir
Need of the hour video
Being a parent, it will definitely minimise our advices. Our son is joining Electrical Engineering at IIT Hyderabad.
Thank you very much sir.
Congratulations and all the best to your son!
Most Probably going to NIT Silchar CSE.🎉🎉
Very excited...
Congratulations! All the best!
A very beautiful video which describes the importance of being balanced. Interestingly, this will also apply even after college life and if students can develop these habits it will eventually lead to a happier life. On that note, I would like to recall a statement from Swami Vivekananda on health. He said that playing football gets you closer to GOD. Meaning when you play football, you have a healthy body and healthy body leads to healthy mind which eventually will help you meditate better. It applies for studies too. Ofcourse, one should not tire themselves. :)
I did this (playing) quite late in my UG days. But I did see the benefit!
Thank you for the pointers sir. I'll keep these in mind.
I would also like to see you make a video about managing finances and financial literacy for college students.
If you do end up reading this comment, I hope u have a great day ahead.
Thank you sir for all these informative videos....Learning a lot 😊
You've like a great and kind person ❤ at the end you are a professor.
What a valuable, insightful & important suggestions on the most crucial part of any student life.
I will suggest to follow these suggestions by heart if you are new to this student life. Because there is a lot of pain and suffering to realising this on your own.
And thank you so much ❤ to respected Professor JC for making this video.
This is a great set of guide to every student :)
Thank you for the kind words.
What a balanced lecture you have delivered!❤
Thank you sir

Im dropper online mode any tips?

Most important tip is don't waste your time in social media,
Use mobile at a fixed time evey day in my case I use mobile apps in 6- 9 slot ...
@@Prof_JC thank you sir
@@AbhishekYadav-rv7dn
Quit UA-cam
Good video sir,some points i could connect back to my preparation days and it was true to a large extent,thankyou sir❤
Sir iit kgp accept for m tech after completing iit madras bs data science degree please reply.
I have personally experienced, if your health is good and hormones balanced you will automatically feel motivated to study. Regarding friendship- I made only one true friend during my BTech and guess it is going to be forever!!!
Good health is the foundation of everything.
thank you for the valuable advice sir...
respected sir there ought to be 3 attempts in three consecutive years given for jee advanced or at least there's a necessity for 2 consecutive attempts in jee advanced in 3 consecutive years from class 12th. It will really help students like me who had limited resources throughout our education and started after 12th get a fair competing field unlike many who got 2 full years and 2 attempt in jee advanced....please try to do something on this too, u can only help us sir...
4:53 Thought that Sir was going to show some "injure" if happened to him.😅
Thankyou Sir! Your videos are always refreshing. I personally feel better about what I can do and get good hope of brightness ahead...
Sir it's a request to you to also make video on GATE preparation in different perspectives such as difficulty,resource availability, guidance requirement etc. Whether the guidance is required to the extent as it is required in JEE?
Thank you sir,
Following you since 2023
Joining iit delhi mechanical
Hope i will get a chance to meet u in future
Congratulations! It is a great opportunity. Prof. Amit Gupta from Mech at IIT Delhi sometimes comments on my videos. Prof. Debabrata Dasgupta there is an old friend of mine; plus there is Prof. Kaushik Mukherjee. Both Prof. Dasgupta and Mukherjee did their PhD here at IIT Kharagpur.
I was a victim of social media in my first year, but I shifted it to my UA-cam feed using a dumbphone in my second year, which enabled me to at least learn something useful [Industrial Design and Digital Design] out of it. UA-cam can be such a blessing, depending on your feed. Now I'm clear that my career is going to be in ID and I'm currently working to get any ID roles off-campus.
See you soon

Professor I am interested in JEE Mathematics
I am getting Btech Mathematics & Computing in a good college as well as BSMS in IISER
I don't know what is research...I am simply interested more or less in JEE Mathematics only...I am a double dropper...after Btech atleast I will get a job but after BSMS there is no guarantee of proffesorship...pls tell me what should I go with
depends on what you want. its not like there is no money in research but they is a lot more scope if you take btech. now it depends on u and your family condition. if you love a subject and can afford to earn less than your btech peers then you can go for research

Hello sir,
I am Harsh from IIT Guwahati Mechanical ,
Can you tell me how can i know whether should I go for core jobs or for Coding Jobs ?
Like I am going in 2nd year now
The first year was common for all ,
So till now , I don't have any idea about Mechanical
Sir If I am doing my BTech in
" Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering " from State government college , will I be able to give GATE exam in Computer Science and Engineering and take admission in IITs ???
The thing about 90 minutes sleep cycle, even though I too am not very sanguine about it, but it really seems to work for me, during my jee days and as well as college life. I try to stick to 4.5 to 6 hrs of sleep duration.
Sir I am joing IIT KGP mining ...
I really really want to meet you in person.. I would be grateful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am going to IIT BHU mining brother.
Welcome to the Institute. Sure, we can meet.
Thank you sir!
Sir i am going to iit kanpur mechanical engineering 😊
It is a wonderful opportunity! All the best.
13:31 that's so true 😅
Sir, thank you, I forwarded this to my son
Sir please tell one thing.. Should we attend practical classes in school during jee preparation?
You MUST! Practical classes are an important component of 10+2 studies. Without the lab experience students face difficulties during labs in engineering classes.
Not only you should ,you must .1st reason sir already stated and second reason some of the questions of main and advanced also come from topics which you will get to know through your practicals especially in chemistry ,even if you dont attend practicals atleast learn all the things which are in it like ncert lab manual has many reactions which can come in advance
sir I highly request you to guide jee 2026 aspirants
Good evening sir
I am going to join iit kharagpur mechanical and will be eagerly waiting to meet you. thank you for all these guidance 🙏
Welcome to the Department and the Institute. Sure, we can meet.
Sir is bits Hyderabad a good college😢
Actually, 90 minutes is an average, it can be more or less by 30 minutes than the average. Try to experiment and find a number that suits you.
