Dear Aspirant,
Before moving towards any other book, you've to make sure to be thorough with NCERTS of Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Moreover, you must cover and solve each and every in-text question and exercise question. Furthermore, you've to refer to DC Pandey for Physics, Arihant Objective for Maths, Balaji Books for Organic and Physical Chemistry. However, you don't need to follow any additional book other than NCERT for Inorganic Chemistry.
Wishing you all the best!

Hello,

I hope you are doing fine, without wasting much of your time here are some books

1. Maths book-

a. **NCERT class 11, 12** I think you obviously have this book, and just complete the NCERT within like 2–3 days of the start of the corresponding topic.

Reason: since the problems are easy, it gives u a good start and you find yourself comfortable

b. RD Sharma: only for the topics like permutations and combinations, probability, in the case you want to work on your basics. Instead of these topics just complete waste of time.

c. SL Loney coordinate geometry still just go through starting chapters to make your foundation strong, like In coordinate geometry you find some basic questions on origin shifting or x-y rotation, these are like one of the basic things you just can't find anywhere else, neither in NCERT nor do much in your coaching sheets.

Also, remember that Sl Loney coordinate geometry has like 70% content which is just out of Jee syllabus, the just required new theory so don't waste your time much if you find some question difficult.

d. Hall and Knight - Probability and P&C content, and some miscellaneous questions at the end of the book to develop a good habit for pure algebra question.


2. Physics book-

a. Personal advice, **just don't even read the NCERT book for physics**, just go for the chapters, which are not covering in advance syllabus, so I assuming your coaching also don't give much focus about these topics like diodes or telescope, etc these topic are very important for mains, so **you must go to NCERT just for these topics.**

b. Hallidey Resnick walker, consider it for theory part, one of the awesome book.

c. Hc Verma: In the case, if you want to practice more or need some conceptually good questions.


3. Chemistry:

1. In chemistry also just please don’t go for NCERT, if you are serious candidate for advanced, a complete waste of time and memory,but just go for inorganic chemistry , assume its like one of the bibles for inorganic, please just don’t waste your time on inorganic, NCERT covered inorganic nicely, and I guarantee you , you can like do minimum 3 out of 5 questions of inorganic in advanced.

2.**John E. McMurry, Robert C. Fay for physical chemistry**, for theory and question, believe me, one of the best book for theory in physical chemistry.

3.** SOLOMONS AND FRYHLE: **one of the good books for organic, the questions and theory are just too good, I personally use like Paula Bruce in starting, but then shifts to Solomons, the questions and theory are too good,


I hope you find this information helpful. I wish you all the best for your future.

Good Luck
