JEE Main Books: Important points to shortlist books

Few Tips to keep in mind while preparing for JEE Main & JEE Advanced

  1. Choose only 1 book of a level to solve problems as most of the problems will repeat in two same level books because their basic framework is the same and they are supposed to cover same fundamentals. This can waste your time.
  1. Never start any book of advanced level before having crystal clear basics. This is a very important advice- These advance books can create many misconceptions if you are using it wrong.
  2. Buy only the latest editions of JEE preparation books. Each new edition ensures that the book is more concurrent and includes solved questions & practice questions based on the latest question pattern and examination trends.
  3. Don’t pick too many books at a time. Be with one book and look at other books only when you need help on a particular topic. To know which book to refer for which topic, read the description or ask your teacher.
