2. JEE MAIN MATHEMATICS by McGraw HILLS

3. CENGAGE Maths

CHEMISTRY

First and foremost, do NCERTs for all – Organic, Inorganic or Physical

Without completing NCERT, you cannot have good chemistry preparation. Chemistry is a rank deciding subject in JEE, so focus on NCERTs must be there.

PHYSICAL:

1. Narendra Awasthi

This book is best for Physical chemistry.

ORGANIC

1. MS Chauhan

Pros: Good quality of problems

Cons: Less number of problems

If you want to practice at JEE MAIN level, then this version is good

2. Himanshu Pandey

Pros: Lots of questions

Cons: Not that hard

Choose only one from MS Chauhan or Himanshu Pandey

INORGANIC

1. VK Jaiswal

2. JD LEE

Pros: Best for inorganic theory

Cons: Less questions

3. KK Wadhwa

Do JD LEE + anyone from VK Jaiswal or KK Wadhwa for questions.

If you go to a coaching, then follow this sequence:

1. Class notes

2. Read and practice your coaching module

3. PYQ

4. If chapter is still weak, follow one of the above books

Don’t run after multiple sources.

Keep in mind PYQs are extremely important.
