Hello dear student,

As you asked for the books needed for neet . So first of all consider ncert to be your god.  Because maximum portion comes directly from ncert in NEET. And then try to solve as much as previous year questions you can solve that helps you with logical thinking and do questions faster . Then you can take topicwise chapterwise Arihant's books or either MTG previous year's question books for practice.

Hello, NCERT- Undoubtedly the single most important book to clear NEET or what people call it is ‘Bible of NEET’ By any means you have to have a grip of it. From diagrams to facts to scientists, every line is important.So while reading analyse every line and make up questions from each paragraph.

NCERT at your fingertips by MTG/ NCERT Rebooster/ any NCERT based mcq book.

Biology Today Magazine by MTG.- If you are very interested in bio it will give you good questions and supplementary theory which is also helpful in other exams like Biology Olympiad.

In order to succeed in NEET you should primarily focus on the NCERT book which are very crucial for getting good marks in NEET. A large number of questions are asked directly from these books and many students usually skip these concepts. Thus you should focus on NCERT after which you should refer to your coaching material. Hope this helps.
