SUGGESTED BOOKS FOR JEE ADVANCED - (1)


For Physics : 

  • HC VERMA (for theory & solved examples)
  • Cengage series ( this is best series of books which are solely made as per JEE Adv level!! )
  • Irodov ( selected questions which are JEE relevant)
  • NCERT textbook ( do not begin with it but study them after your syllabus is finished before JEE MAINS).
All above mentioned books are sufficient for you to get a rank under 100 in JEE Advanced. In case you have solved all above mentioned books & want some more questions..... , I am suggesting some good sources also!!
  • Problems in JEE ADVANCED 1st edition  - By Shashi Bushan Tiwari(Only Level 2&3)
  • Problems in JEE ADVANCED 2nd edition  - By Shashi Bushan Tiwari(Only Level 2&3)
  • Learn Mechanics through problems - By Ajit Agrawal (Only Subjective problems)
  • Learn Optics through problems - By Ajit Agrawal (Only Subjective problems)

Now , I will tell you how to use these books & how I had used them!

I had joined Vibrant Academy, Kota after my class 10. Initially , I was not aware of many books & my sister recommend me to start with HCV. HCV is best book for beginners as it give the REAL FEELING of Physics!!

Later on , i also studied from DC pandey. Its theory is not very interesting & appealing . In beginning of class 12 , i became aware of Cengage & I started optics through it . It was really an amazing book!! Many topics & cases (which are not discussed in HCV & other ordinary books) are thoroughly explanied in it.

After then , I only studied from Cengage books. During August , when load of coaching was smaller , i also purchased Cengage of Mechanics 2 & it was very nice!!!

Now for IRODOV😰…

Most students have great fear of this book & I was also one among them😅

In class 11 , when my teacher gave HW from this book, I didn't even attempt it!!!(as i was much feared…)

But later on , questions begin to get solved by me as time passed … (in class 12). Later on , I realised why this happen??

It happened because initially I was solving only HCV + coaching material (whose questions were not of very great level), so i was feared of Irodov. But when I started solving cengage (questions of good level) , I also get courage to solve irodov problems …

So , from all my experience, I would like to suggest all JEE aspirant that Do not get demotivated if you are unable to solve difficult questions.. As we grow up, our mind also develops and soon we find comfortable with difficult situations in life!! Also , try to begin with little difficult books so that your way of thinking/ability to approach a question enhances.

You will find Cengage books have a lot of questions . So, just solved all illustrations + Concept Application exercise + solved examples (besides them there will about 100 in each chapter which u can leave- i have also done the same).

Thanx for reading till now!!

Hope it will help you!

ALL THE BEST FOR YOUR JEE EXAM!!

      But Cengage has Optics and modern physics in one book and you wrote that you had used it for optics.

    Bhaiya if I just solve Illustrations, CAE & Solved Examples of Cengage in Physics, NOT THE BACK EXERCISE AND NOT EVEN MY COACHING MATERIAL AND HCV, will it be sufficient for a under 1000 rank in JEE Advanced. I AM PLANNING TO DO NOTHING ELSE (IRODOV IF I GET TIME AFTER COMPLETING MY SYLLABUS IN DECEMBER)

    Pls tell as my Coaching Material of FIITJEE is not very good and also I do not have enough time to solve the entire Cengage, and therefore cannot afford to attempt the Back Exercises.

    Pls Answer and do not ignore Bhaiya.....!!

      Bro, I am also FIITJEE student, problems here are very tough compared to cengage book with many concepts not in cengage book itself for solving. But theory is worst in the Fiitjee material that is the main reason why Fiitjee students are struggling like me and you. If anyone can help in advicing us, I would be very grateful for it.

    3. Shivansh Shukla20 January 2021 at 02:08

      Actually, I have one assignment & one test today....
      See the level of questions in FIITJEE is quite high....So, U don't need to get demotivated if u are unable to solve them....
      Start solving illustrations of cengage & then try to solve some of them by ur own.....
      "Quality of study matter more than Quantity"
      So, try to solve as much questions as u can(also try to increase ur pace slowly day by day)....
      Physics needs interest to "feel" how the things are happening & so that u can apply ur knowledge on problems....
      So, try to enjoy it.... So, start with Cengage(do illustrations only) & if u have time(in case u are not much confident) u can solve last 10-15 questions of HCV..
      Later on, when u are confident, give a look over FIITJEE material & I m sure that u can solve atleast few of them.....
      From next time, if u have any queries, kindly wait for 1-2 days.....
      I m quite busy with assignments/tests/tutorials nowadays....
      Still I try to visit my blog once in 1-2 days...
      U can understand my situation after giving a look on time at which I am replying u....

    Bhaiya, if I am aiming for a top rank than by which month should my JEE syllabus be ideally completed provided I am not revising class 11th before class 12th and will directly start revision after long time after my JEE syllabus is completed.....??

    So, pls tell accordingly that by which month should I complete my syllabus such that I get sufficient time to revise entire class 11th and 12th before JEE Mains 2022 January attempt and second time before JEE Adv. 2022....!!

    Pls reply Bhaiya.....

      I advise u to spent about 1 hr daily for revision of class 11 topics...
      Otherwise u might feel difficulty in understanding class 12th topics after 4-5 months.....
      If u follow this , then if u complete ur syllabus by december, then it will be fine...
      Mine syllabus was also finished about 10/12/2019.......
      If u don't follow, then u should cover it till november...

      Bhaiya by December, did you finish your class 11th revision only or revision of both class 11th & 12th....???

      Delete
    4. Shivansh Shukla11 February 2021 at 15:31

      @AJ It depends solely on u. Make a list of topics which u want to revise , which u feel that u haven't studied for long time or u are having some difficulty in it. Then continue doing it..... Once, u have completed it, there might be some more topics which were not present in ur list & now u need to revise them.... So, make a new list...
      So, this process will go on till ur real JEE & by this, u ensure that at any time before JEE(like tests in ur coaching or just solving mock tests available in this blog), u remember each & every concept & also how to apply it... This will boost ur confidence & will surely help u in real JEE

      As stated earlier, I used to revise daily prev topics so, I didn't have to revise whole syllabus as such....
      Besides, giving mock tests is also part of revision...
      Also, read prev comments once again...

Res*na*c* AITS papers for JEE MAINS & ADVANCED with solutions(in pdf)-(2)

  Hello friends!! In this post, I am sharing  complete set of AITS papers of Resonance, Kota of year 2018. They are very beneficial for JEE preparation.... Mock tests play a crucial role in JEE preparation. They not only allow you to see your weak points but also help to overcome them. Once your syllabus is finished, I suggest you to give a mock test in 3-4 days. Analysis of Mock tests is the most important factor. If you solve a test in 3-4 days but do not analyse it properly ----- then it will not cause any benefit!! So, make sure that you analyse them properly. Write down your mistakes on a notebook & read them before giving next one. This will reduce your mistakes by great factor(especially silly mistakes)!! Resonance mock tests are very helpful for JEE preparation. I myself had solved them though I was not enrolled in Resonance. Most of the students have to purchase Resonance's AITS for getting access to these mock tests. But I am providing these valuable mock tests for fr

COMPLETE FINAL STRATEGY FOR JEE ADVANCED 2021 ( MUST for all )

Image
  Hello friends!! In this post, I am sharing complete final strategy for JEE ADVANCED 2021 which will surely boost your score : What to study? First of all, I suggest you to go through last 4-5 years question paper & see the pattern. JEE ADV pattern is quite different from JEE MAINS. In Mains, they ask almost 1-2 ques from each topic. But in case of Adv, they ask quite a lot of question from " some special topics " & almost zero from others. So, What is the smart approach now ??  Yes, you guess it correct, prepare first for these topics and this is more than sufficient for Adv . Yes, you read it correct. Believe me, if you get 50-60% marks, you may be my junior in IIT KGP [ however I won't take ragging XD] . So, How to revise them effectively ?? For each topic, first of all, go through your notes quickly,  theory must be clear to you for Adv. Next solve few standard question which you have solved earlier & revise how a particular approach works. Next solve
