Selecting text book for Physics: Advice

Many students ask to me "From which book should I study Physics?".The wording of their Question gives an
impression to me that the availability of great number text books in Physics for IIT-JEE preparation has totally
confused them.
My advice to all such students is very simple and straight forward: read basic concepts from any one good book. Do
not read any topic from too many books. Start a topic or a chapter by reading it from NCERT first.Solve all
problems contained in NCERT.Then do some problems of the type asked in entrance exams from that topic. After
this, you will be able to judge for yourself if reading that topic/chapter from some advanced book is necessary or
not. If you feel that what you learnt from NCERT is not enough to solve questions in competitive exams then (and
only then !) read that topic from some other advanced book.For this you can use "Resnik and Halliday's book".
Other books can also be used according to your personal preference.

We discussed in the last article the importance of physics as a subject. We also saw that knowledge of
physics is essential for understanding other sciences as well. Now comes the real question: How to start
studying physics?
PREREQUISITE
For studying physics you must have good knowledge of mathematics and geometry. Mathematics is the
language of physics so a student of physics is required to study lots of mathematics (concurrently with
physics) to be able to understand physics.
You must have the tendency of understanding things. Some people think that they will manage by
learning (memorizing facts) in physics. I would like to tell it very clear to such people that learning
without understanding will not be of much help in physics. Success in physics is possible only for those
who have a strong tendency to understand things.
You must be able to draw and understand GRAPHS for situations that you analyse in physics. Graphs help
us to better visualize a situation.
Very often you will be required to draw diagrams to visualize and better understand a situation.
How to Begin
It has been experienced by scientists that every phenomenon of nature is directly or indirectly related to
motion of some particle, object or to some radiation (which is again wave motion).For example, Chemical
reaction is rearrangement of atoms (which is possible only if atoms move). When we touch a hot kettle
and we feel its hotness, that becomes possible only because atoms of the kettle are vibrating more
vigorously than atoms of our hand, and by touching our hand to the kettle we allow the atoms in our hand
to come into intimate contact with atoms of the kettle body. When this happens the atoms of the kettle
transfer some of their kinetic energy to those atoms of our hand which are touching them. Thus those
atoms in our hand begin to vibrate with greater average speed. This generate a sensory wave that travels
from the hand to the brain. The brain interprets the incoming sensory wave as the perception of hotness.
Similarly all climatic phenomena depend upon the wind flow. We can cite unending list of examples to
support the fact that motion is behind every phenomenon of nature.
So it is very important that we develop a very thorough understanding of motion before trying to
understand other phenomena of nature. That is why the study of physics as a subject starts with studying
MECHANICS which is the physics and the maths of analysing motion.
My suggestion to you is that you should make all your efforts to develop a proper understanding of
MECHANICS. You will be required to have a fair knowledge of Algebra, Coordinate Geometry,
Trigonometry, Vector Algebra, Differentiation and Integration etc. in maths, to be able to understand
Mechanics well. A good physics teacher will concurrently teach you the essentials of all these topics in
maths to enable you to understand Mechanics.

Do not abolish the board exams in 10 th standards.

cbse, india, board exam, science education ...
In India everybody thinks that student community is stressed lot. And people mostly blame board-exams
for this stress. Board Exams are public exams conducted by Education Boards like CBSE, ISE and many
other STATE Boards. 10th and 12th standard students of all the schools affiliated to a particular board
have to appear in the Board Exams conducted by that particular board in month of March-April every
year. In these exams question papers are centrally set by the board and students of different school are
evaluated on the basis of their performance on one question paper. All the students belonging to a
particular board face the question paper of the same difficulty level so the marks obtained by them in
this exam is a better measure of the knowledge and problem solving skills acquired by them. If two
students X and Y appear in the exam conducted by the same board and X gets higher marks than Y then
one can safely conclude that most probably X is a better student that Y. This gives the Board Exams an
edge over school exams, because in school exams different schools have different standards.
In some schools, question paper are tough, while in other schools question papers are relatively easy. In
government schools, question papers are mostly based on the prescribed text books (e.g. NCERT for CBSE
affiliated Govt. School). In private schools, question papers are mostly based on private publication books
which the teachers of that school use for teaching.(Choice of the recommended book for teaching in a
private school is very seldom based on the real quality of the text book- otherwise, why most Delhi
teachers of private schools use Lakhmir Singh and Manjit Kaur's book in science for class 10th although
NCERT is a better book than that book? Or Why most physics teacher use Pardeep Publication's book in
Physics for 11th and 12th class although NCERT Physics book is many times more better in quality than
Pradeep Publication's book in physics?).
So same marks in different schools do not mean the same. For example, suppose a student named A
scores 80% marks in school X, and another student B too scores 80% marks in his school Y. You can not
take guarantee that the level of knowledge of A and B are same because schools X and Y are not
necessarily setting the question paper of same toughness level. So how will it be ascertained that which
student is superior to which in terms of knowledge acquired.
Also it is not very uncommon for a lazy teacher in a school to not finish the entire syllabus of his subject.
Then to appease the students of his/her class, he/she unofficially tells the students that questions will
come in the exam from only those chapter which he/she has taught and not from the entire prescribed
syllabus. So in this scenario, if board exams are now abolished, then how it will be ascertained that
students are being taught the entire syllabus?- because, it is a fact, due to board exams every school
finishes the entire 10th and 12th class syllabus, whereas, some part of 9th and 11th class syllabus remain
untaught every year in many schools.
I will like to tell the readers of this page that they should not believe in the illogical argument advanced
by many people who say that the sense of competition that board exam instills in the brain of a young
student is bad for them. Competing against each other in a healthy way- I would say- is necessary for the
overall evolution of a child personality. Competition is a part of human culture. One Company competes
with the other. One state of India competes with the other state. India competes with other countries for
trade, commerce and overall development. Competition can only be removed in a utopian imaginary
society. Because competition is a necessity for the actual human society at every level of its existence. It
is a fact that the urge to compete and do better than others in our life is one of the most important force
that drives us to excel in our life. So why are be trying to remove competition from students' life?
Also, in school exams, the internal evaluation of answer sheets, by a teacher of the same school, is mostly
not very impartial. If a teacher T likes a particular student P (because, for example, P had gifted him/her
a costly item on last Teacher's Day or because P is a neighbor of T or because P un-officially takes tuition
from T ) then P will definitely get better marks than an equally competent student Q who may not be a
favourite of T. Whereas, in Board Exams, the evaluation of answer sheets are done by teachers who do
not know the students personally. So they award marks only on the basis of the quality of the answers.
India is known world over for its engineers and doctors that it produces in huge numbers every year. The
entire computer software industry and the BPO industry is fully dependent upon the availability of quality
human resource. If this experiment of doing away with board exams proves to be a mistake in future and
consequently the quality of human resource deteriorates with time, then our future generation will never
pardon us for our action.
Instead of abolishing the practice of board exams, I would say, the government should strengthen the
board system. There should be one board for 12th class in entire India. So that students throughout India
study the same syllabus in their 11th and 12th class. This will help in strengthening the university
education as well. State boards may be allowed to function upto 10th level so that students may study
their state centric syllabus upto class 10th . But beyond that there should be one national level
curriculum.

Analysis of Question Papers of IIT-JEE-2009.

AUTHOR-J.P.Sinha. Delhi based Teacher for IIT-JEE/PMT
IIT-JEE-2009 consisted of two question papers of three hours duration each. Each question paper carried
240 marks. Thus the total maximum marks for IIT-JEE-2009 was 480. Questions from all the three
subjectschemistry, physics and mathematics- were present in each of the paper.
PAPER-1
Paper-1 contained 60 questions in total - 20 of chemistry, 20 of maths and 20 of physics. Paper-1
consisted of 3 Parts. Part-1 contained 20 questions of chemistry. Part-2 contained 20 questions of maths,
and similarly Part-3 contained 20 questions of physics.
Questions in each PART were grouped into four sections.
SECTION-1 of each PART cotained 8 multiple choice questions(MCQs). In these, each question had 4
choices (A), (B), (C) and (D) for its answer, out of which only one was correct. Marking Scheme was :
Three(3) marks for each correct attempt. Zero(0) Marks for not attempting a question, and, minus one (1) for wrong attempt of a question.
SECTION-2 of each PART contained 4 MCQs. Each question had 4 choices (A), (B), (C) and (D) for its
answer, out of which ONE or MORE could be correct. And to get marks a student was required to identify
all the correct choices in a question. Marking Scheme was : Four(4) marks for each correct attempt.
Zero(0) Marks for not attempting a question, and, minus one (-1) for wrong attempt of a question.
SECTION-3 of each PART consisted of two groups of questions. Each group was based of a paragraph
and contained 3 questions. Thus there were 6 questions in this section. In these, each question had 4
Four(4) marks for each correct attempt. Zero(0) Marks for not attempting a question, and, minus one (-1)
for wrong attempt of a question.
SECTION-4 of each PART contained 2 questions. Each question was Matching Type. There were two
columns in each question. Column 1 had four statements ( A,B,C and D) and Column 2 had five statements
( p,q,r,s and t ). Any statement in Column 1 can have correct matching with one or more statements of
Column 2. Marking Scheme: Two (2) marks were awarded for identifying all the correct matches of a
statement in Column 1 with those of statements in Column-2. Thus for 4 statements in Column 1, each
question allowed an opportunity to score upto a maximum of 8 marks. There were no negative marking
for incorrect matchings in this section. For getteing marks, however, a student was required to identify
all the correct matches of a statemant in Column-1 with those in Column-2 to get 2 marks for that
statement.

Problem Solving skills in Maths and Physics.

AUTHOR-J.P.Sinha.Teacher for IIT-JEE/PMT
For science/maths students in general, and IIT-JEE or PMT aspirants in particular, learning the skills of problem
solving is very important.Questions and problems in science (especially physics!) and maths contain factual,
conceptual, theoretical and numerical ingredients all entangled with each other.And this makes solving them
tough for the beginners.That is why students begin to fear Physics and Maths because these two subjects requires
finest quality of problem solving skills from students.There is no universal technique that can solve all problems
because different problems usually require different methods and approaches for successful solution.
Nevertheless, if a student works systematically then soon problem solving will become fun for him/her.
Thus for the benefits of the student community (or any body who is interested in learning the art of the problem
solving) I have presented below a sequence of steps that, if followed, can immensely help in solving questions in
Physics and Maths.
PART-1:
Read The Question/Problem carefully.

Identify what is being asked.
Make a list of knowns and unknowns.
Note carefully the information given.(Sometimes, some informations which are part of general-knowledge are
not specifically given.Note such relevant informations-if any.)
Sketch a neat diagram or a rough graph to aid your thinking.(Diagrams and graphs should be drawn in such a
way that they describe the situation of the problem clearly.)
If you can make an estimate of the final solution (by reasoning or some logical guess!), then you must do that.
Because at the end when you actually get your answer by solving the problem then you can check the
truthfulness of your answer by comparing it with your estimate.
PART-2 :
Write a verbal description of relationship among all quantities.

Write all relevant formulae known to you involving known and unknown quantities.
Examine similar problems to see if their solution techniques are applicable.
Look for a pattern so that you may think upto many steps ahead of your calculations.
You may start with a special simpler case to gain insight.
Sometimes a problem may be broken into two or more number of non-overlaping cases and each case may be
solved separately.
PART-3:
DO all calculations according to your decided plan.

Check your solution with your estimate and graph. Does it make sense? Does it seem resonable?
If every thing seems fine, then you have got your solution.
PHYSICS & MATHS:- Getting good marks in CBSE 12 th Board.

AUTHOR-J.P.Sinha.Teacher (Physics and Maths) for IIT-JEE/PMT

12th board exam is the most important stage in the academic life of any student in India. Good score in this exam
in many cases ensures admission in good course or college. There is an element of prestige attached to it too: any
student getting 90%+ marks in 12 th board automatically becomes the darling of his/her entire family - all of a
sudden people start speaking good and respectful words for him.But, on the other hand, getting very high
marks in board exams in India (atleast in CBSE board exam!) is honestly not very tough these days. Following are
few of the general advices that I would like to give to any one desirous of getting good marks in Physics and Maths
in CBSE board exams:
Give utmost importance to your NCERT books. In maths exam, usually nothings come from outside NCERT book. So
for your board exam preparation do not consult any reference book. Just solve all the SOLVED and EXERCISE
problems of NCERT again and again for practice.Remember that you do not have to leave any thing inside the
NCERT maths book. Solve every single problem - both solved examples and exercise problems - present inside
NCERT books. Solve all the miscellaneous solved and unsolved questions too. Solve the Sample Papers available on
CBSE website. If you gain the capability of solving any problem contained in the NCERT book without any trouble
then I assure you that you can even get 100 marks in Maths.
For Physics, again NCERT book is very important. *Read all concepts of every chapter in full detail from
NCERT.*Make a list of all the DERIVATIONS in each chapter.*Write the proofs of these DERIVATIONS in your note
book. While writting the proofs follow the style in which you normally answer a question in exam. *Make a
comprehensive list of all the important formulae of the syllabus. Revise them regularly.*Do all the NUMERICAL type
questions present in NCERT physics book (both solved and unsolved ! ).*Make a list of important graphs present in
your text book. *You must know all the Definitions and S.I. units of all the physical quantities dealt in the
syllabus. *If possible, practice 'previous year questions' from each chapter from the book "Together with Physics"
or "U-Like Sample Paper in Physics". *Solve the Sample Paper available on CBSE website.*Do the revision of all
the above works again and again. You will then be able to solve the entire PHYSICS paper without any problem and
getting65+ (out of 70) score will not be difficult for you in Physics.

Reply from J.P.Sinha:
Hello Navneet,
please finish your basic (NCERT level) syllabus of 12th-class in 4 months.After that revise your 11th syllabus in the
next one months.Then do practicing of MCQ type questions extensively from the entire 11th-12th syllabus.If you
feel that you are unable to solve questions from some topics then go for further readings of those topics from
advanced books.
Get personal help from some good teacher if you feel that you are unable to study on your own. Never ignore the
basic concepts in any subject.Revise basics again and again. Solve problems from all topics and subjects regularly.
Make your own study plan.There can not be one plan of study that will work for all students.Therefore I will advise
you to follow a self-made-plan-of-study that suits your style of study.
Best of luck.

To Deepshikha

To Shivaji
I think you are forgetting things because you are afraid that you can forget.Sometimes when we are afraid that
some bad thing will happen to us, then our mind some how get programmed with the negative thoughts in such a
way that our psychology begins to deceive us into believing that the bad thing has indeed occurred to us. So get
out of your fear. Work hard.Revise regularly. And then be BINDAS. Fear is our worst enemy.
Advantage of studying NCERT is that you get speedy idea of the entire syllabus in very little time.Where as if you
directly start with the advanced private publication books, then finishing the syllabus even once becomes
impossible.Moreover there are only few chapters in which IIT-JEE syllabus is more than what is given in the NCERT.
In most of the chapters IIT-JEE syllabus and NCERT syllabus are almost same.
If you are not convinced with the usefulness of my plan then you should never use it.Try to develope your own
personal plan which according to you is best suited to you.
J.P.Sinha
To Shivaji again:
after finishing the NCERT, you should always do the remaining topics which are part of IIT-JEE syllabus and not
included in the NCERT from some private book.

J.P.Sinha # 1. February 2009, 15:30

Hello Sarthak,
path difference is the difference of lengths between two paths through which two waves propagate before
meeting at a point.
Phase of a wave is the expression (Kx- wt + C) that you find as argument of the sine or the cosine function. Phase
of a wave can change due to variation in x or t or both.A path difference equal to wavelength results in the phase
difference of 2.pi radian(i.e. 360 degrees).
J.P.Sinha

Anonymous writes: Sir, there is a question of work, energy and power. In this question a ball of mass 'm' is
suspended by a string of length 'L'. Initially the ball is at rest. A horizontal velocity 'v' is imparted to the ball. At
some angle, the string becomes slack and the ball moves in a parabola. We have to find the velocity 'v' so that the
ball passes through the point of suspension. In this question I have assumed that the string becomes slack after
making an angle theta with the vertical. Using energy conservation I have the velocity at that point where the
string slacks. Then at that point 'mgcos0' is equal to centripetal force. Using this I have got the velocity at the
initial point and final point in terms of 'theta'. Now after the string becomes slack it follows a parabola and passes
through point of suspension. Now sir can you please tell me what to do to find 'theta, using the last line of the
question. sir I know that this blog is not for solving questions but sir I am stuck in this questions for a week and I

J.P.Sinha # 6. March 2009, 13:47

Telling which topic is important and which is not is very tough. Because in an entrance the trend of questions may
change any year. So a student should prepare the entire syllabus. If you have done the entire syllabus well from
NCERT then you should practice question solving from popular IIT-JEE guides during the 15 days that you get after
your board exam. For DCE you will get more time so do even more practice for that.

J.P.Sinha # 4. April 2009, 16:27

Reply from J.P.Sinha :
Hello Parthasarthi,
you are right, questions from mathematical-induction are not likely to be asked in the IIT-JEE if the question
papers in this entrance continue to be of objective type. But you should not under estimate the creativity of those
people who prepare question papers for JEE. May be, the may invent an innovative way to ask an objective
question from mathematical induction.

Hello Sarthak,
it is towards the NEGATIVE charge.
Actually, the direction of the Electric Field at a point is the direction of FORCE experienced by a POSITIVE test
charge at that point. Obviously, the POSITIVE test charge will always experience attractive force towards the
negative charge.

To Mohit,
take decision of dropping one year for IIT-JEE preparation, only if, you think that you are very firm in your resolve
that you are going to work really very hard.
Join a coaching which is reputable among the students of your city for quality teaching. If possible take personal
tuition. It is always better than group coaching if you can find a good teacher for personal tuition.Yes for better
practice you can some join test series in a good coaching.CLICK HERE to read an article that may help you in
making your plan of preparation.
TO Deepak,
I would suggest you to read all my articles by clicking links above.
Numbers of hours studied per day is not much important. Study as much as you can. But whenever you study you
should be honestly studying only. That is, don't play music while studying, your mobile phone should be switchedoff when you are studying... etc.

Pooja writes: Hello Sir, I have done my 12th from MP Board and scored 78 percent. I have appeared in MP PMT but
could not get selected.My marks were very less 104 out of 200. My performance was really bad in above exams but
i know i have not work hard for the above exams.But I know my potential i can do much better if i drop a year and
prepare for PMT again.I am fully commited to do hard work this year.But my parents don't trust me , only by
seeing the result of other intelligent droppers who could not get selected.My parents say that how hard you try ,in
the end the result will be same as of other droppers.Before listening this I was so much confident to get selected
in the next year but they have demoralised me.I dont know what to do now.Should I drop a year or not.Please help
me....as early as possible b'coz its my decision making time.Please. Thanking You. Pooja
J.P.Sinha # 22. July 2009, 04:34

Hello Rahul,
joining a test series is not a problem if it does not disturb your normal studies. Finish your basic syllabus of NCERT
level as quickly as possible.
Hello Pooja,
this is the most tricky question that students like you face in their career. I will suggest you to listen to what your
heart says in this regard.If your heart says that you should prepare for the PMT and you are ready to work hard for
it, then you should go ahead. But be honest in interpreting your heart's call. Give your self some time and ask to
your heart that what it says.If it says yes - then yes. If no - then no.I have seen many students who have cleared
PMT in their second attempt.I have also seen many who could not clear PMT in their second attempt.

Disha writes: Hello sir, Plz help me in this question The distance between charges is reduced to 2cm from original
distance of 8cm .The force now will increase by which of the following factor: (a) 4 (b) 3 (c) 16 (d) 15 Well I have
solved the above question but the answer is coming 16 and in the book its answer is 15 Plz help me out which one
is correct.
J.P.Sinha # 29. July 2009, 17:59

To Disha:
Original force = F1
New Force = F2 = 16.F1
Change = F2 - F1 = 16.F1-F1 = 15.F1.
So the change in the force is 15 times the original force.

Hello Nakul,
you have lack of confidence, although you have studied the subjects well; it is strange! I think you need to pull
your self out from this state. Be brave, and start giving tests. Slowly your fear will subside. But always prepare for
the test before taking an attempt at it.

Hello Raj,
concentrate on your board exam now. Because if you do not get good marks in boards then getting admission in
college will be difficult. Also, a student who does not get good marks in board exam is less likely to get success in
engineering entrance exams.

Hello Saiket,
amount of theory given in a standard text book(NCERT, Arihant,... etc.) used for IIT-JEE preparation is enough.
You may use one or two year old book.

in AIEEE questions are a bit above in toughness level that NCERT but they are strictly from the syllabus of NCERT in
physics and chemistry.
In maths questions of AIEEE goes some what beyond NCERT level.Use Objective Approach to Maths-Arihant
Prakashan for help in maths for AIEEE.
Pradeep publication books are not good for reading the theory in my opinion.NCERT is better for theory.Yes, you
can practice problem solving from Pradeep books.

Pragya,
are you able to understand the concepts of physics well from your present book(pradeep)? If yes, then do not listen
to what your friend are saying. If not, then you need to get a tuition in physics because changing to book won't
help much.

Arihant books are good.

you have already too many books.There is no need of one more.Try solving past year problems.Or try solving
sample question papers published in Competitive Magazines regularly.
J.P.Sinha

To ALL,
for books read above article.NCERT books are must in physics and chemistry for covering basic theory.In maths
NCERT book is not enough.For practicing problem solving one must consult good IIT-JEE guides.
Ansul, it seems you have not understood the concepts well.And you have not mastered the skills of problem
solving.Only a teacher teaching you personally can help you in these.

anu writes: you didn't answered my question

Anu,
if you have good command over all the subjects, then you should keep revising the basic concepts periodically
from the books that you already have.
You should practice problem solving from popular guides for Medical Entrances available in the market. Solve 50
randomly selected questions from one chapter at a time, then go to next chapter and solve 50 questions in that
chapter too ... and so on. In this way cover all the chapters of each subject in 15 days. Then again start the second
round from the first chapter.

Akash,
I have already answered your question at the other place where you have asked the same question.
Anandu,
please do not buy more than one book in any subject in the beginning. Initially your focus should be on mastering
the basic theory of all subjects and solving straight forward questions to consolidate your understanding. After
finishing the entire syllabus once in this way you should go for problem solving practice for entrance exams.

K.C.Sinha's books are not meant to be used as text books. Use them as reference books only.Those books are so
voluminous that no body can finish them in two years while also studying physics and chemistry.You should refer to
these books only for clarifying your specific doubts.

Hello Sagar,
in your case you should study Physics and Chemistry from NCERT books side by side. Automatically, your Guj
syllabus will also be covered by that, I think.
In maths, you should take the book Objective Approach to Maths-Arihant Prakashan. Because maths NCERT books
are not enough for entrance exams. Actually, to reduce pressure of maths for weak students, many important
topics have been either dropped from the NCERT maths book (e.g. logarithm) or they have been ridiculously made
easy (e.g. complex numbers, conic section).
Ask your teachers to teach you according to the plan written in Part-1 and Part-2. Keep your Guj board books in
mind while studying. So that your school curriculum is not disturbed.
Hello AArif Mobin,
in your case, since you are already doing what you should have done, you can do just one more thing: pray to God
that you perform better in the exam next time than the person coming 1st.
. But keep studying sincerely as
before.
If you come first then say thanks to God. If not then may be the person coming 1st is praying God harder than you.
So pray more.

J.P.Sinha # 1. March 2010, 11:39

Hello Aditya,
Why do not you concentrate on your 10th studies for now? Study 11th when you reach 11th.
If you are unable to understand NCERT on your own, then I will suggest you to take your teacher's help for that.In
the beginning NCERT books appear tough to understand, but if used under the guidance of a teacher then soon you
will begin to realise that it is a very nicely written book.
Halliday-Resnik's book is good for being used as reference book, but I don't suggest anyone to use that book as text
book.

Aditya Balasubramanyam,
your study plan is good. Don't listen to what your friends are telling you.Keep studying as you have planned.
Revise all the concepts periodically.Once you finish your syllabus, then you should practice IIT-JEE type problem
solving extensively.Taking some mock tests will also help.

J.P.Sinha # 12. March 2010, 10:11

Hello Anik,
for studying maths M.L.Khanna is a better book because it also contains the extra theory that is not given in the
NCERT books of maths.But for practicing IIT-JEE type questions New Pattern IIT Maths is better.
In physics, after studying the NCERT, you can directly start solving problems from Arihant guides.You my use
H.C.Verma's book for solving few long numericals in each chapter.Also reading the solved examples in H.C.Verma
will teach you the tricks of problem solving in physics.

Ruthvik,
Akshay,
changing a book just because you are finding it difficult to solve its questions is not advisable.Try to understand
the theory of physics thoroughly before attempting to solve questions.Read solved examples in H.C.Verma's book
to understand the question solving skills in physics.If you still face problem then you should get yourself a personal
tuition in physics
Payal,
you need a good teacher who can give you personal tuition in physics.Self study will require lots of time in your
case.

you can't clear IIT-JEE just with the knowledge of the basic 12th theory. You need the knowledge of the 11th

For making your base in maths you should study
1)NCERT or any book that is used in your school
2)Objective Approach to Maths- Arihant Prakashan
Read the theory of maths thoroughly.Then read the solved examples.Then solve questions.

Gowtham,
discuss this issue with your parents and other educated elders in your family before reaching any decision.
Dropping a year is a very tricky decision. If you got selected in the IIT the next year then people will praise you for
your boldness. But if you could not make it to IIT with good rank the next time too, the you will start repenting
your decision.
For AIEEE, revise all the theory of 11th and 12th and practice question solving extensively.

You just need to buy NCERT books in each subject to get the feel of Indian syllabus first. Finish the theory from
NCERT books speedily. Then practice maths from "Objective Approach to Maths- Arihant Prakashan". Read the
extra theory of maths given in this book too. But caution, there are few printing errors in this book.
For physics you ca use New Pattern IIT Physics- Arihant Prakashan.

your board hardly matters in IIT-JEE exam. So please do not torment your mind by thinking uselessly about CBSE vs
ICSE. You may continue with CBSE and still you can clear IIT-JEE if you are sincere and hard working in your
studies.
Abhijeet,
I can name hundreds of book.But the fact is that none is more suitable for an Indian student than NCERT books-
especially if you are in CBSE board.

So read the theory from NCERT books. In physics, read solved examples from NCERT and H.C.Verma. Sole all
NCERT problems and few H.C.Verma problems, then start solving questions from Arihant books.
In maths, read theory from NCERT and then read extra theory given in each chapter in the book "Objective
Approach to Maths-Arihant Prakashan". Then solve all NCERT solved and unsolved problems. Also solve the
problems in "Objective Approach to Maths" book.

thats required for cracking IIT JEE with a good rank and now i feel that i have too less time left to start from the
beginning since in 11th i did not choose books well and also in my classes they went too slow teaching each topic
very deeply and nicely (recently we have completely finished mechanics).but ya my concepts of what i have
learned are very good. so for math will IIT JEE RD sharma be a good book for firstly doing the whole course then to
do some more questions from other good books like ML khanna. does ml khanna gives a good base with the theory
(i do study NCERT) is there any other book that can replace IIT JEE RD SHARMA for me mainly for calculus and
coordinate geometry. sir i want to get into IIT powai for sure . How much and how should i study and utilize each
day to make my dream come real. sir please help ITS URGENT coz it has become too late now.

i'm not saying that you needn't study or something, but many creative minds are brought down to bits if you just
spend your time with books without any physical applications of what you've learnt! people get dissappointed when
they learn a lot but still fail to make it past their hurdles, but you need to understand the quality available with

Your question is very absurd. How can I say if one book is sufficient or not? It all depends upon person to person.
For some NCERT book is enough whereas for some other may be H.C.Verma is enough. It all depends upon from
which book you are able to understand all the concepts.

To all,
I can't give you any tip on the number of hours that you should study.You should study as much as may be possible
for you.
Use that book from which you are able to understand the concepts well.
If you think that you are taking a little more time in solving problems then you should practice more.Read lots of
solved examples to know the tricks of problem solving.Do you know the theory well?

To all,
if your concepts are not very clear in any subject then it is better that you take personal tuition from some good
teacher of that subject.
In physics for learning the theory, NCERT books are best. For problem solving skills, read all the solved examples
carefully of both NCERT and H.C.Verma, do all the questions of NCERT.Do all the MCQ type questions from
H.C.Verma do few numericals from this book too. Then start solving IIT-JEE type questions from books like "New
Pattern IIT Physics-Arihant"

shshank ank ankur ,
dropping a year is risky. Drop only if you are willing to take the risk of losing one year.
Sam,
I don't think log table is given.But I will ask my those students who have appeared in the entrance exams.
Anonymous,
I always say use one text book and one IIT-JEE guide in each subject.You should use third book(if needed) for a
chapter or two if that chapter is not written well in you text book.

Sanit,
you should now seek a job.
Tej,
yes for IIT-JEE Arihant's Objective approach to Maths is a good choice for long term preparation. Read the theory
of maths too. Read derivations of mathematical formula too.

Tej,
you may use New Pattern IIT Physics. But before buying it, look whether its latest edition contains the matrixmatch question or not.
Anonymous,
you need to take class from a good teacher in maths.Only he/she can may you take a transition from R.D.Sharma's
level to IIT-JEE level.

J.P.Sinha # 24. June 2010, 18:24

I have become bored by answering the queries about books again and again. I have already provided a book list
above. You ask which one book is enough? Answer is, "No book is complete in every respect". That is why the role
of teacher is very important.Read theory thoroughly from any book from which you understand. Practice problem
solving from that book and one IIT-JEE guide.

If you can manage the school syllabus and IIT-JEE preparation together then you should follow your teachers plan.
Syllabus of IIT-JEE is same as 11th and 12th.
Else you know my views which I have written in Part-1 and Part-2

thanks.

the best way to prepare for IIT-JEE for you is to study your 9th class syllabus sincerely. The actual preparation will
start when you will reach 11th class.

I don't teach chemistry so I can't suggest books on chemistry.
No book is THE BEST. There are many good books. Read the one that suits you more.

J.P.Sinha # 1. July 2010, 04:43

Javed,
no book is 100% perfect.
So read that book which gives you a better comfort in the subject.
Your main aim should be to gain full knowledge of the subjects and gain problem solving skills.

J.P.Sinha # 2. July 2010, 17:36

Kumar,
I think now your are not eligible to appear in the IIT-JEE. Because you can appear in the JEE only in the year in
which you pass 12th and the next year.
If,in any case, you manage to take admission in IIT through the JEE then you will get admission in first year only.
Tinish,
see book list above.
