Hello,

As per the previous year trends, maximum weightage  has been provided to differential calculus followed by linear algebra, sequence and series, differential equation, integral calculus, and vector calculus. But, preparing for all the topics in the syllabus is equally important as well since we never know if the similar pattern will be followed in the time to come.

You can go through the following books for the topics in the syllabus:

  • For functions of one variable and two real variable you can use Mathematical Analysis by S.C. Malik,Mathematical Analysis by Apostol,Principle of Mathematical Analysis by Rudi
  • For Integral Calculus, you can use Mathematical Analysis by H.C. Malik,Calculus by Thomas & Finny/Integral Calculus by Gorakh Prasad
  • For Vector Calculus, you can use Geometry & Vectors by Vasishtha/ Calculus by Thomas & Finny
  • For Differential Equations you can use Ordinary Differential Equations by Earl.A.Coddington/Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems by Boyce-Diprima/Ordinary Differential Equation by Peter J. Collins, G.F. Simmons, M.D. Raisinghania
  • For Real Analysis you can use Real Analysis by H. L. Royden
  • For Linear Algebra you can use Schaum's Series/Gilbert Strang by Linear Algebra & its applications/Modern Algebra by A.R. Vasishtha/University Algebra by N.S. Gopalakrishan
