Top Recommended Books for IIT JEE preparation

PHYSICS
1. HCV– good 4 JEE I guess… I got bored with that book and never read it/ solved its problems after mechanics (to b completely honest.. I did have 2 solve d optics problems 4 practice)
2. Resnick-Halliday– again a good book 4 JEE… esp the 2 vol end. I didn’t read it either after the mech
3. Young, Sears and Zemansky– Univ Physics- one more famous book I didn’t use
4. Irodov-a. Mechanics b. electromagnetism- finally books that I did use… very small but honest and useful books… The examples are also pretty useful.
5. Feynman Lectures on Physics 1&2- according to me The Good Books for physics… I owe to it almost all my physical intuition and understanding..and hence the medal and air ..1 heck of a cool book… highly recommended for The curious and interested who are not satisfied by the bullshit that commonly floats around.
6. Problem books
*Common Ones
–> Irodov– yes, it is still as relevant as it ever was.. it helps develop analytical skills
–> Krotov– good problem Collection
–> Bukhotsev– good problem collection especially in the optics and td chapters
7. Not-so-common ones
–> P Gnadig– 200 puzzling problems in physics (CUP)- a beautiful collection of interesting problems
–> Physics Olympiad Problems (MTG)
–> http://www.jyu.fi/ipho/problems.html
–> Also google out for more problems on the internet.. they are interesting

Use of study-material (fiitjee/brilliant whatever) 4 studying physics is not advisable (most of their problems r taken from irodov anyways)

CHEMISTRY
1. Orgo
–> Morrison and Boyd- Good Book
–> Paula Bruice- goodbook
–> Solomons-  godbook++(M nd B modified and made up to current trends)
–> P Sykes- coolbook..small nd handy
–> Finar- boring book…long and nasty.. how can anyone read this stuff.. i could never figure out.. i put it because of every other person usually rcmmnds
–> Finar- problem book… quite unlike the textbooks.. it is pretty much useful and comprehensible.. must used with discretion.. it contains too many things not covered by JEE
–>Atkins- advanced modern book… really modern.. really advanced…

2. Inorganic
–> JD Lee- GODBOOK
–> Atkinson (or was it Wilkinson don’t remember)- book if you want to become The God of inorganic.. which would probably not be the case.
–> Greenwood- I am putting it only because I used it for my revision.. not needed at all
–> Vogel- Qualitative Analysis
–> Atkins-again since it is Atkins it has to be an advanced modern book.. really modern.. really advanced.. and really interesting for a change

3. Physical
–> NCERT!!
–> O P Tandon !!??
–> Disha – Shishir Mittal !!??!!
–> P Bahadur !!??!!??
–> Atkins-advanced modern book… really modern.. really advanced…really unnecessary.. its tought to 2nd and 3rd yr undergrads !!??!!??!!
(God Help ME.. i dont know a single reliable book for physical chemistry at JEE level.. VKJ and NA came up with a book on Physical + Inorganic..
I haven’t seen it.. but since I have learnt from them, I can say that the book should be good)

Use of study materials 4 problem solving and revision recommended

MATHEMATICS

1. Algebra
–> Hall and Knight
–> Bernard and Child

2. Trigo
–> Loney

3. Coordinate
–> Loney

4. Calculus
–> Thomas Finney
–> Shanti Narayan
–> GN Berman
–> Das Mukherjee
–> I A Maron
–> Dasgupta
–> TMH
–> ML Khanna
