What are the books that I should follow for the IIT JAM physics exam?

Buy Kailash Publications books....Best books i ever read..

There is a lot of stuff available in form of books and videos to learn from for JAM IIT . I recommend the following, apart from NCERT (that should be your starting point and consumed properly)

1. Start with Youtube (all the following are available for free on YT)
1. Khan academy videos for the topic you’re studying,
2. follow up Crash Course for the same topic
3. watch Walter Lewin Lecture videos (MIT freeware)
4. you can also watch Yale lectures by Prof. Ramamurthy
2. Read Halliday and Resnik, Fundamentals of Physics (for conceptual understanding and Numerical problems)
3. Read Sears’ and Zemansky’s University Physics (for conceptual understanding in case you need to explore a topic beyond Resnick.
4. H. C. Verma Concepts of Physics by for problem

Hi Shalini,

Schaum's Outlines series

Mathematical Methods for Physics & Engineering: Riley, Hobson & Bence

Quantum Mechanics - By Zetili / Griffith / Schaums Series

Quantum Mechanics - MC Jain

Classical Mechanics- Kepler or Berclays, and HJ Pain

Optics - By Ghatak/ Brijlal and Subhramanyam
