I write from my personal experience and in most cases, the book and the method I mention here recommended by my teachers. Each teacher has a different way of teaching and different books complement different teaching styles. So even though I might say in my answer that you should/must do, please note that this is entirely based on my experience and may not directly apply to your case. A key part of your preparation for JEE Advance is not only the books you study, but how you go about studying them. In this answer, I will give my opinion on both the aspects. The idea is to ensure that you understand the subjects well which will then enable you to tackle problems which might be new/old. General Advice: Study NCERT books thoroughly The first thing that you should do for any topic in any subject is go through the NCERT chapter. This is exclusive of my disclaimer above and I would strongly recommend that you do the NCERT irrespective what your teachers say. NCERT textbooks are written by a team of author's who are all experts in their area. For example, one of the author's in the Physics textbook is Prof. Ajay Ghatak who is an expert in the field of optics and I would assume that the chapter(s) on optics are primarily written by him. Also, NCERTs contain some of the most basic material explained very well. It is essential that you master all the basics before moving on to more "advanced" ideas. So, the first thing to do is read the NCERT chapters thoroughly and this includes any side notes or extra information that may or may not be part of the CBSE boards syllabus. Once you have completed the exercises for the relevant topic, you are ready to move to the next step. Once you have finished the relevant sections from the NCERT textbook, you can move on to a more "advanced book". This book would differ with subjects and may differ on different topics within the subject. A list of these "advanced books" is contained below in this answer. In all cases, the idea is to understand the theory behind some of the more advanced topics that may not be covered in the NCERT textbooks. As in the case of the NCERT textbooks, you should begin with understanding the theoretical parts and then do the exercises given in the book. In my opinion, at this point you should have a sufficient level of understanding to help you do well in the JEE Advance. Once you have done both the relevant topic from both the NCERT and the advanced textbook, if you have time at your hand, you can move ahead and practice some the topics from books which focus primarily on questions. This would help you strengthen your understanding of topic and also give you some experience with application of the concepts which you have learnt. If you are not able to solve some question, you may re-read the relevant section from the NCERT or the "advanced" book. Books: Past year JEE Advance questions are a great way to practice and test your understanding for all topics. Mathematics: Maths is not only about solving some equations or some problems but also about understanding how theorems were arrived at and the intuition behind several conventions and ideas. So it is very important that you study the theory given in NCERT and other books that precedes the examples and questions. This would give you a better understanding of the concepts and certainly help you in JEE Advance. Higher Algebra by Hall and Knight Textbook of Co-ordinate Geometry by A. Majeed Differential and Integral Calculus by Amit Agarwal Vector Algebra by Shanti Narayan Trignometry by S L Loney Coordinate Geometry by S.L.Goyal Let me know if there are any topics that I have missed out on. I know trigonometry is one, but in my opinion the NCERT textbook is enough and all you need to know is how to derive all the formulas from the basic ones given there. Physics: Concepts of Physics by H. C. Verma Problems in General Physics by I. E. Irodov University Physics by Freedman and Young Fundamentals of Physics by Halliday, Resnick and Walker I was taught Physics by the author. I have not gone through these books but I am basing this recommendation on the assumption that these would be similar to the questions found in the reading material provided to me as a student. Chemistry : University Chemistry by Bruce Mahan for Physical Chemistry Organic Chemistry by Morrison and Boyd for Organic Chemistry Organic Chemistry by Solomons and Fryhle for Organic Chemistry A Guidebook to Mechanism in Organic Chemistry by Peter Sykes for Organic Chemistry. This book must be read irrespective of whether you read 2 or 3. But it is suggested that you read this book only after you have covered all or atleast a large part of your organic chemistry syllabus.
