JEE Advanced is India’s most competitive entrance exam which provides an opportunity for students to pursue Engineering or Architecture programs in the top institutes of India such as IITs, NITs, IIITs, CFTIs etc. The onus for conducting the exam lies upon seven zonal IITs under the guidance of Joint Admission Board (JAB) for admission into Bachelor’s, Integrated Masters and Dual Degree programs for all the IITs. More than 2 lakh students from across India appear for the examination, of which the top 2,24,000 candidates (including reserved categories) of JEE Main exam can apply for the JEE Advanced.
Best JEE Advanced Books – Physics
Physics is one of the most technical subjects in the JEE Advanced Exam as it comprises of both theory and practical application. It tests the students on their understanding of the underlying problems by throwing conceptual questions and derivations at them. While students run from pillar to post in search of best books, experts recommend that sticking to NCERT books is the best strategy if you are looking to crack the JEE Advanced Exam. Textbooks comprehensively approach the topics and help in clearing the basic concepts. As per experts students should opt for NCERT Physics for 11th and 12th and Concepts of Physics Vol I and II by HC Verma as textbooks. In order to tackle problem-based questions, go for HC Verma Physics book and I. E. Irodov book. Use all other books for reference only.

Best JEE Advanced Books – Chemistry
Chemistry should be approached in a highly strategic manner, as the vast syllabus of chemistry can lead to chaos like situation if you do not organize your study table well. In order to keep your studies organized, divide chemistry into three components i.e. Physical, Organic and Inorganic. Here is the list of most recommended books for these three sections
