JEE Main 2025 Review for Physics (April 7 Shift 1) - High-Scoring Chapters and Topics
FAQs on JEE Main 2025 (April 7 Shift 1) Physics Question Paper with Solutions (FREE PDF)
1. Why was the Physics section considered the easiest in JEE Main April 7 Shift 1?
Despite a few tricky conceptual questions, the Physics section had straightforward problem-solving and NCERT-aligned theory, making it the most approachable section compared to Maths and Chemistry.
2. Which topics in Physics had the highest question frequency in this shift?
Modern Physics and Ray Optics dominated the paper, each contributing 2–3 questions. These chapters were not only frequent but also carried direct and scoring questions.
3. Was Ray Optics heavily emphasised in JEE Main 2025 April 7 Shift 1?
Yes, Ray Optics saw multiple conceptual questions, reinforcing its high-weightage status across shifts. Image formation and basic lens concepts were key focus areas.
4. How can I use the April 7 Physics paper to prepare for upcoming JEE shifts?
Analyse the question types and chapter focus (e.g., Modern Physics, Optics). Use Vedantu’s PDF solutions to practice similar problems and build speed with accuracy.
5. Did the Physics paper include any new or unusual topics?
No, the paper strictly followed the JEE Main syllabus with no surprise topics. Chapters like Fluid Mechanics and Waves, however, were completely missing from this shift.
6. Is it worth revising EM Waves and Units & Dimensions for the next JEE shifts?
Absolutely. These chapters are often underestimated but were asked directly in this shift. They’re quick to revise and easy to score, making them perfect for last-minute prep.
7. How do I balance theory vs. numerical practice in the final days?
Focus on high-yield theory chapters like EM Waves and Optics while also practising numericals from Electrostatics, Rotation, and Kinematics. The April 7 paper shows the importance of both.
8. Are all Physics questions in JEE Main heavily calculation-based?
Not always. As seen in this shift, many questions were conceptual, fact-based, or formula recall, especially in chapters like Units & Dimensions and EM Waves.
9. Can I rely only on NCERT for Physics theory questions?
Yes, especially for Inorganic-like chapters in Physics, such as Modern Physics and EM theory. Most theory questions in this shift were directly derived from NCERT lines.
