By my personal experience of not paying attention to classes for first few months as I have always been a last resort preparer,It’s best to create few tasks or targets to clear in your free time like when you get off classes or the breaks you get  
The only companion in these cases is your own organisation skills  
Your backlogs can be completed faster if you have someone else with the similar problem so you can discuss and complete faster but it takes a bit extra hardwork to complete your backlogs and to keep up the competition with your friends  
As for the cutoff it’s best if one refers to josaa cutoffs of prev and upcoming years  
as it is subjected to change
