Hello Ritik. Thanks for contacting Careers360 and I hope we will be able to support you.
Noyice that JEE Mains, though it is based on the NCERT/CBSE syllabus for class 11 and 12, not all questions come from them.
The Mains exam also requires lateral thinking. Sometimes, questions are asked from the last topics in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. These can be covered in one day.
But, for all other topics, the NCERT books only aren't sufficient. You need to practice from these sources to get into a NIT of your choice:
- Arihant publications - Previous year question papers
- Mock Tests of Mains
- Special dedicated books for JEE Mains
Basically, focus on the topics as I have written in my previous answer here: https://www.careers360.com/question-what-are-most-important-topics-in-jee-mains-2017-that-can-assure-cutoff-marks-within-the-10-days
Hope this is useful. All the best!
Hello Ritik
From my personal experience, I would suggest going through your NCERT books specially for Chemistry. Inorganic Chemsitry is one such section, for which I would highly recommend the NCERT text books. Many a times, even direct questions have come in JEE Mains from NCERT books.
However, for getting NITs, considering the huge competition in JEE Mains, you would definitely need to go through other books for more and more practise.
Practise more and more previous year question papers, give tests and stay determined.
All the best !
By studying ncerts you can perform good in your jee mains in chemistry subject better than physics and maths. As according to previous year papers trends questions of chemistry are more frequently asked from ncerts rather than physics and mathematics.
So according to me you should go for ncerts for chemistry but for physics and mathematics you should practice from various other publications and writers like DC panday and HC verma for physics and for mathematics you can see arihant books.
Many people think that they can enter into nit through ncerts, this may be possible only for enterance into University but for performing good you cannot use NCERTs only because not only enterance but survival in it is also necessary.
In order to get good marks in JEE Main Entrance exam NCERT books play an important role as it will help you to build your concepts so firstly go through well with NCERT books then the other books you can prefer for the exam preparation given below:
