Hello

NCERT chemistry is good for building and clearing Basic concept but when it comes to entrance examination like jee then it is not sufficient as there are many concepts which are difficult to understand from NCERT as they have not been explained there in a elaborate manner and not many questions are there to practice , also NCERT doesn't have MCQs.

So , you cannot completely rely on NCERT for your Jee preparation.

You can follow following books for chemistry for JEE preparation

CHEMISTRY :-


*Ncert Chemistry for class XI and XII

*Physical Chemistry by OP Tondon

*Numerical Chemistry by P Bahadur

*Organic chemistry by OP Tondon

Hello there,
NCERT is the best book to start your preparation for JEE Main. But you need other study materials too, if you want to get good rank.  You can study from the books given below:
1. Organic Chemistry (Robert T. Morrison and Robert N. Boyd)
2. Concept of Organic Chemistry (O.P. Tandon)
Apart from these, you should solve the previous year question papers, and give regular mock tests.

You can our JEE knockout package:
