 hi miya,as i told you before there are many good books out there for the preparation of NEET and NCERT TEXT BOOK ALONE ARE NOT ENOUGH , i will tell you how did, but bear in mind it all comes to individual preference and it always varies, i used NCERT text books for all subjects along with my coaching institute materials, question banks provided by them, i also used to solve the arihant previous year question papers, i referred concepts of physics by hc verma, op tandon and jd lee for chemistry,biology @ your finger tips. hope this helps , good luck

Hello  Miya,

most important for NEET/AIIMS is your NCERT books as books include basic principles and concepts and provide accurate information.

BUT KEEP IN MIND YOU HAVE TO CLEAR ENTRANCE YOU ARE NOT DOING PhD.

so dont go by all books mentioned here and there Keep NCERT + ONE REFERENCE  BOOK + MAXIMUM MCQS PRACTICE = Medical SEAT Apart from this, you can add upon it by following books

Biology -

Truemans Biology Vol. 1 & 2

Objective Biology by Dinesh

Pradeep Publications Biology


Physics -

Concept of physics by H C Verma

Fundamental of Physic by Pradeep

Objective physics by DC Pandey


Chemistry -

Arihant Organic Chemistry

Dinesh Chemistry Inorganic

Physical Chemistry by O P Tandon

Objective NCERT at your fingertips Chemistry by MTG


General Knowledge - It would be better be up-to-date by reading newspaper on daily basis, y current affairs magazine {specially science section}


Hope this helps!....BEST OF LUCK

Hello Sid,

The best books you can refer to are the NCERT,


For biology, refer the following.

1) Trueman's Biology vol 1 and vol 2

2) Dinesh- Objective biology

3) Pradeep publication Biology

4) GRB'S Publication Biology.



For Physics refer to he following books.

1) H.C.Verma - Concepts of Physics.

2) D.C Pandey - Objective Physics.

3) Fundamentals of physics by Walker

4) Problems in Physics by I.E.Irodov


For chemistry you can refer the following books

1) O.P Tandon - Physical Chemistry

2) Morrison and Boyd - Organic Chemistry

3) Modern ABC's of chemistry

4) J.D.Lee Inorganic chemistry

5) Dinesh


Ncerts are mandatory to have, refer the rest of the books and find out which one suits you. I would advice you not to buy all the books but to refer them and see which one is better for you.


In the end it doesn't depend upon which book is better but how good can you understand the concepts


Also, for the general knowledge subscribe magazines, they will be useful.


Hope this helps.


Goodluck!

NCERT books are enough for NEET if u r talking about theory portion only because u must buy a book for physics to practice questions and one for chemistry physical .
Rest is enough from ncert .

And if u wanna score really nice then it would be better if u practice questions of organic too .
And for biology also practicing questions would be better .

The books that I would prefer are:-
For physics - GRB or arihant
For chemistry - GRB
For biology - GRB or dinesh ( I find dinesh better )
