Dear aspirant;

Yes it is better to drop one year if you are  preparing forJEE mains exam.

Here are some tips;

For JEE main, yep NCERT will be really useful. Other than that, try: 

1. HC Verma for physics

2. RD Sharma for maths

3. P Bahadur for physical chemistry

4. NCERT will do for organic and inorganic chemistry (along with some coaching modules if you can get them somehow)

5. This is really important: DO NOT FORGET TO DO PREVIOUS YEAR PAPERS AND SOME SAMPLE PAPERS BASED ON CURRENT FORMAT AND SYLLABUS. It helps a lot. Really.

it will be a really daunting task to finish off your preparation in 5 months alone because if you haven't had the motivation to start preparing till now, then it is going to be so tough, trust me. 

Now lets plan your schedule so that you can finish all of the above in time (if you can finish all of the above books easily and master them, and also get a 90%+ score in board exams, then you, my friend are a stud. If DTU or BITS is your dream college (assuming you are from Delhi), then nothing will be able to stop you from getting an admission there).

Try finishing up NCERT, HC Verma, RD, and P Bahadur in just 3 months and no more than that. Then solve all of the sample papers and set aside the last month for revision. Do this and I don't see how you won't be able to score big. 

Thank you.

Obviously

If you want to go to the best colleges like nits and iits , then take a drop.

Many have done that previously and they have got top Ranking in jee main.

But then you should work very hard in the dropped year.

It depends on your determination and hard work. If you are confident that you can study by yourself and understand the concepts. Then no coaching is required.
If you get small doubts you can clarify that through internet.
All the best :)
Dont forget to choose comfortable study materials.

Hello,
If your goal is to get admission in colleges like IITs/NITs/IIITs then only think of dropping a year.It will need a lot of effort from your side if you want to succeed.You need to be consistent with your studies if you want to drop.
But i will recommend you not to waste one year as there are many good colleges in India that takes admission through other engineering entrance exams like BITSAT,VITEEE,SRMJEEE,WBJEE,COMEDK,UPSEE,etc.
Good luck.
