Best Songs to Lift up Mood & Motivate IIT JEE Aspirants

IIT JEE 2015 aspirants are a busy lot – perhaps busier than IIT alumni engaged in huge projects. They spend 6-7 hours in school, 2-3 hours in tuitions and coaching classes and spend 5-6 hours in self-studies. With the 13-16 hour rigorous schedule, it is easy to break down mid-way and want to give up.

Every engineering exam aspirant goes through phases where they want to break free of shackles of their ambitions and enjoy the simple moments of life. Listening to sad songs is the disaster recipe for such times. They only manage to invoke negative energy around you.

The best way to snap out of such a phase of mindset is to listen to some happy, chirpy, motivating, soothing and action-oriented songs. Here are the Top 10 Songs for JEE aspirants to lift up your mood and infuse new energy in you for the next session of JEE preparation:
