Hey there !!



The first thing you have to keep in mind when preparing for an entrance exam is to follow the NCERT textbook first rather than seeking help of guides. However guides can surely help in your aim. Arihant books were my favourites when I was preparing. JEE mains seperate books are available from Arihant which is quite a nice book.

Arihant books are very useful to check any entrance exam in engineering stream.

You can have Arihant previous year papers.

OP Tandon for Organic

JD Lee for Inorganic

Dr. P. Bahadur for Physical

Or, Dr. SP Jauhar(Modern) for whole Chemistry.

Hello Sparsh Mathur. I had the same problem when I studied at FIITJEE. Then my chemistry teacher gave to following list of books to prepare from:

  • Physical Chemistry - OP Tandon
  • Organic Chemistry - LG Wade
  • Inorganic Chemistry - JD Lee
  • Problem Books - P Bahadur and RC Mukherjee

I would advice you to just Google: best books for IITJEE and choose the books you are comfortable with.

Finally, please take this small advice: Just buying the books doesn't matter, please study them!!!

All the best, Sparsh!

First of all, you should be thorough with your NCERT text book as it will help in building up all your concepts . After that you can go for the books like Arihant and OP tandon. For any entrance exam you should pick up books with previous year question papers and mock tests as it will help you in testing your knowledge. All the best.

Dear Sparsh,

Best book to prepare for chemistry is NCERT. It will help you to clear your concepts and it will help you to build your fundamentals strong.

After, completing your NCERT book you can refer to OP Tandon.

It will help to clear all the entrance exams of engineering.

If you are preparing for JEE advanced then you can also refer to Paula Bruice Yurkanis.

To score good marks in any entrance exam make sure you refer to previous year papers and mock test series for your practice.

All the best!!
