Hey There,

NTSE (National Talent Search Examination) is conducted by the State Government and NCERT for class 10th students. You should be the student of Class 10 to be eligible to participate in NTSE.

For NTSE, all the syllabus (Science, Maths, Social Sciences) is from the NCERT Curriculum of 9th and 10th Standards.

Whatever topics you mentioned in the question are available in the books of 9th and 10th. Also, you have to keep the knowledge of older classes with you. Also, topics such as the Universe and Solar Systems are taught in the previous classes. So you may have to refer to Lower classes' books for those references.

So you have to read only NCERT books for preparation of NTSE.

Hope that this is the required information you needed.

Good luck with your preparations!!!
