Hi.

Good luck on your endeavors.

Now, to study for boards exams the NCERT and Class notes are more than enough, to help you with questions you can buy 'CBSE Last 10 Year Solved Paper for Class XII - Science Stream' so that you can practice the theoretical approach which a student preparing for JEE misses out usually.

If you have a further specific query please feel free to comment.

Best of Luck.

Hi Candidate,

The Oswal Publication Physics NCERT Book is a very good book if you are preparing for your Board Examinations, as it has a variety of Questions and examples covering almost all aspects of BOARD Examinations.

If you have practised the book well and have revised it properly, you can score around 90% marks as the pattern of Questions asked in Boards are very much related to those given in Book.

Hope that this answer helps you.

Hi.

This is a vague question with no answer. What you choose to learn and how much you can retain it are totally dependent on you. What are you learning for? Entrance exam? boards improvement exam? Incomplete question, please rephrase.

Dear student,

NCERT is one of the best books for Chemistry . If you are preparing for both JEE Mains and JEE Advanced, then NCERT is the very basic book to start with. For JEE Mains, this book is 80% enough. Just read it thoroughlly. For the remaining portion, you can follow some other books of chemistry  like OP Tondon Chemistry , etc. For JEE Advanced ,NCERT is not so enough. You need some other books like, Physical Chemistry by RC Mukhrjee , Organic by SKM etc.

But let me clear you, that first of all start with NCERT book. First complete this book. Only then move to other books. Without completing NCERT, don't go for any other book. And for JEE exams, solve as much previous year papers as you can.

Hope this helps.
