The topic-wise division of the questions asked in JEE Main-2013 is tabulated below:

S. No.

Topic

Number of questions asked in JEE Main 2013

1.

Coordinate Geometry

7

2.

Limits, Continuity and Differentiability

3

3.

Complex Numbers and Quadratic Equations

3

4.

Integral Calculus

3

5.

Sequences and Series

2

6.

Trigonometry

2

The table clearly shows that Coordinate Geometry is the most important topic of the mathematics syllabus

The topic-wise break-up of questions asked in JEE is as follows:

S. No.

Topic

Number of questions asked in JEE Main 2013

1.

Current Electricity

8

2.

Electrostatics

4

3.

Optics

3

4.

Laws of Motion

2

5.

Simple Harmonic Motion

2

6.

Waves

2

Current electricity is the most important topic of IIT JEE Physics. It always fetches a good amount of questions. In 2013, 8 questions were asked from this topic. Electrostatics is also an important topic which easily draws 4-5 questions.

7.

Heat and Thermodynamics

S. No.

Topic

Number of questions asked in JEE Main 2013

1.

Periodic Table and Representative Elements

3

2.

Transition Element and Coordination Chemistry

3

3.

Gaseous State

2

4.

Atomic structure

2

5.

Solution and Colligative Properties

2

6.

General Organic Chemistry

2

7.

Hydrocarbons

1

8.

Amines

2

9.

Carboxylic Acids and Derivatives

1

10.

Carbohydrate, Amino Acids and Polymer

1

2

Periodic Table is the simplest and the most scoring topic. Three questions were asked from this topic in JEE Main 2013. The topic of transition element and coordination chemistry is also equally important. JEE takers are advised to focus on these two areas. Other areas which also demand equal attention include gaseous state, atomic structure, solution and colligative properties etc. Though, in the year 2013 just 1 question was asked from each of the sections hydrocarbons, carboxylic acids and derivatives and carbohydrate, amino acids and polymer, but these sections are also important. If you consult the IIT JEE papers of previous years you will get to know that even these topics fetch several questions.
