Hello, if you are searching for Class 10 books for exam preparation, the right study material can make a big difference. Standard textbooks recommended by the board should be your first priority as they cover the syllabus completely. Along with that, reference books and guides can help in practicing extra questions and understanding concepts in detail. You can check the recommended books for exam preparation from the link I am sharing here.

Hey Akshita! For CBSE Class 10 exam preparation, the first and most important thing is to study your NCERT textbooks and NCERT Exemplar thoroughly. Most of the questions in board exams are either directly or indirectly from NCERT.

After that, subject-wise you can go for:

Maths – RD Sharma or RS Aggarwal for extra practice and concept clarity.

Science – Lakhmir Singh & Manjit Kaur books are really helpful as they explain in simple language with examples.

Social Science – “Together With” or “Xam Idea” are good for summaries and case-based questions.

English – “Golden English” or “Together With English” for grammar, writing, and practice questions.

Also, don’t forget to solve previous year papers and sample papers (like Oswaal or Educart). They help you understand the exam pattern and improve your time management.
