Dear student,

NCERT books are sufficient for any state board exam because while designing it, the moto of writers and publishers was to create something which can collectively help students of every part of India and and they can take reference from it.

If you have good basic command over the subjects or if you have got good teachers then you can surely go with NCERT and can perform really well in class 12th.

Now, if we talk about syllabus then it is same with just slight variation in few topics, because sometimes, you read extra in NCERT books which is out of syllabus from your state board syllabus, and in rare cases vice versa happens too but this is not something you should be very worried about because you must try to attempt or see previous year papers of your state board so that you can get clear idea about the variation f questions. You can also try for the model sets of question paper that is given by state board for practice.

I hope this answer helps you.

All the very best!!

JEE Main is more of a strategy than harkwork. Instead of starting a new Text now before the Exam, you must get accustomed with JEE Main Previous Years, correct your Test Taking strategy and consider a routined preparation for yourself. If youve not yet started HC Verma or RD Sharma, dont start it now, its too late for the remaining attempts. First, you must be thorough with your NCERT Books, followed by practising sample and previous years for JEE Main and analyzing the Detailed Solutions. Some of the other crucial materials, I believe you must refer before remaining JEE Main Attempts are

1. Physics, Chemistry Arihant Handbook

2. Allen Mathematics Handbook (PDF Available)

3. Resonance JEE Main Rank Booster (PCM)

Hi Bharti,

Hope you are doing great as per the question asked by you yes you can can start preparing for UPSC exam in your graduation also as such boundation is not there. Yes you need to manage your college studies and preparation together and yes you have to spend more time in college preparation rather then spending more time on your graduation syllabus. And yes it is necessary to read all relevant NCERT books for preparation as NCERT is very standard book which gives very good overview.

Hope you found this answer useful.Stay motivated stay positive.

All the best!

Hello,

First of all don't compare  your journey with anybody else's, you have your own path, aspirations to fulfill, and if you have decided to go for a career in BCA then try to study well for that, develop skill sets both in terms of domain specific and personal attributes, that's the only way to do well and thrive in life, and if you don't want to go for BCA then with your stream and combinations try to explore other options as per your areas of interest, you want to pursue something because you find it interesting is good enough reason, not because your friend or any body else is going after that, doing so your intrinsic motivation to sustain will never be the same, moreover interest is only one part of choosing a career, there is dedication, focus and perseverance that's involved as well when it comes to the success of any candidate, and each student is different, even if you decide to go through shift which will yield in year loss, don't make any decision in haste, think with clarity, and discuss it with your parents in case you need advice.

hello aspirant,

I dont think just going through ncert would help you fetch a good rank in jee.if you doubt you can check yourself through previous year question papers after completing the syllabus.also while preparing simultaneously you willbe giving the mocks and you will understand.ncert books help in the basics concept understanding.though few percent of chemistry questions relating to theory part maybe directly from ncert but not most of them are from ncert and for a good rank you need to attempt most of them to be correct.if you expose yourself to various type of questions answering jee questions would be easy.also previous year question are much helpful to understand the level of questions and solving similar type and range of questions.give as many as mocks as possible and be clear with concepts.reference books help but i advice you not to go through all of them at once.pick those wisely or pick one with the help of your lecturer and solve all of the questions from it.

for more information regarding reference books refer to: https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/best-books-for-jee-main

hope this helps,

thankyou.
