Here is an exhaustive list of Physics text books suggested for competitive exams.
The books which have been tagged as "Recommended" were used by me in some or the other way.
Note that I used a lot of books myself (I had a library of books at my home). However, you are not expected to buy them all. Use your own discretion here.
Also note that the books in the below link have been verified by me. At times I see people getting confused on which version to buy. The below versions are the ones that I myself used and are indeed worth a try.

Can University Physics ( H D Young Sears &b Zemensky ) be used instead of resnick Halliday Walker ?
ReplyDeleteNever read it
DeleteAny particular reason? I am asking because it is highly regarded by Physics professors for iit coaching
Deleteok i misinterpreted ur reply. You never read it.
Deletesir,which book of halliday and resnick is better it's indian adoption or halliday resnick and walker or krane
DeleteWhich book is the best for Mechanics? Can u also please tell me the pattern of studyin g u followed like first u did the coaching class or hcv or den irodov,etc.. Thanks

ReplyDeletewhat about Cengagae series?
ReplyDeleteWhat about Cengage series by BM.Sharma?
ReplyDeleteAman bhaiyya is it good to give preference in such a manner to physics book regarding JEE advanced -1.NCERT Physics
ReplyDelete2.Fiitjee Study Package+Notes+CPPs
3.HCV
4.DC Pandey
5.Irodov
I am a FIITJEE student and being an ex-FIITJEEian do you think that following such an order would be good for JEE advanced preparations.I care a little about any rank expectations at this stage rather it would be appropriate for me to focus on solving maximum no.of problems in tests,quizzes and phase tests.Do you think this is the right list?
Sri Chaitanya and Narayana educational Institutions from AP are the most Rank getting Institutes and what they follow are barely a few books in this order for Theory : (i) NCERT / New Millenium PHYSICS series (ii) Their own material and for Practice (i) LIVE Physics ( Concept Application in various cases ) (ii) HCV Exercises (iii) Their own material / Cengage Books. That's it.
Deletebut what about dlp of rsonance+allen+fiitjee is it enough(without using hcv
Deleteis irodov necessary for under 1000 apirator?
ReplyDeletefor organic whether i should use morrison boyd or lg wade or both??( ihavent bought any of them yet)
Nothing is necessary for anything and anything is necessary for nothing
DeleteConfused?
Organic - Wade is enough
Hcv ...ncert and last years papers will provide u enough concept and practice and too get top rank solve DC pandey will be more than enough
DeleteHi Im facing difficulty in mechanics especially the rotational part of it , i have tried to solve HCV problems but my concepts i think are still not clear , so i want your suggestion should i continue with HCV or i should try Resnick Halliday???
ReplyDeleteany help would be appreciated..

Study hcv line by line and understand every concept properly then solve the solved problem by not looking at answers. Then try obj 1 and obj 2 then exercise..in hcv questions are linked with previous chapters so concept of previous chapters should also be clear and read ncert too.
Deletedear dhrumil go with resnick halliday or university physics .
Deletealso watch lectures by walter lewin . they are available in youtube
Aman, you have commented on quora that you never solved hcv even in 11th and 12th and here you are saying that it is highly recommended?

ReplyDeleteif anyone has fiitjee study material with them and if they don't need it please post it to the following address
ReplyDeletetejas, k r road, ranipet, hospet,583201,hospet,bellary. As I cannot afford it please if anyone is seeing do the favor
I got HC Verma and DC Pandey Set. (I'm in 11th).
ReplyDeleteI heard I.E. Irodov is too tough and beyond level for JEE Physics. Do I have to buy other book or will this be sufficient?
Hello Aman,
ReplyDeleteI am studying in 11th and the institute I go has provided many good ranks in Gujarat... it's branch near my house is running like a school(idea of its director and our maths faculty)... It has also been certified as a school so No school attendance worries.. Also the semester system in 11th and 12th has been removed so whole 11th I need have to worry about my boards.....
Now my question....
I have a schedule of 8 am to 11pm everyday and also 4pm to 7pm on alternate days...
On these alternate days I barely get 4 hours to study properly..... Though we are allowed to stay there till night and have our lunch in Tiffins... But I prefer to come home. The teachers are very supporting..... My question is how should I maintain my schedule???
And about books is HCV enough for advanced or should I Buy DC Pandey??
We are using RD sharma NCERT for practice and will buy SK Goyal Arihant for maths..... Your views on that? And please suggest just best and blindly Trustable books for Chemistry...... NCERT is always there!!

ReplyDeleteHey Aman!
ReplyDeleteSo, I recently purchased Cengage series of books for Physics by BM Sharma. Should I purchase DC Pandey series as well? Need your opinion. What's your review of the Cengage series?
And by the way, congratulations for putting up such a great blog.
Regards.
which order you read and solve books, I mean before a topic is taught in coaching you study with which book , after coming to your house how you utilise your coaching notes , from which books you solve first and from which book you read additional theory.
ReplyDeleteCan you please give us a subject wise ( physics, chemistry maths) order of solving and reading ooks

Sir Aman which book to buy halliday resnik Walker or halliday resnik karne very much confused!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteYes, I read Fundamentals of physics - Resnick halliday and walker. I wonder how the book disappointed you. Its the most recommended book for JEE preparation and I myself enjoyed reading it.
DeleteIt indeed covers concepts in greater details than any other book with many examples and in-text problems to highlight the important approach that will be helpful to solve problems of similar type.
May I get answer to the following questions:
1.) Did you buy the original book?
2.) Did you read the book or did you skim through the chapters?
3.) Did you solve the problems?
4.) How many days have passed since you purchased it?

Aman bhaiya actually i bought walker instead of krane by mistake?
ReplyDeleteIs there any difference in them
Plz reply
Do you recommend Halliday and Resnick international student version or the indian version made explicitly for JEE?
ReplyDeleteinternational is better
DeleteHi Aman. I am very low on time now. Please tell me just one book to follow along with Fiitjee material for advanced. Only one book and that too only for practice assuming I haven't done anything till now for practice.
ReplyDeleteHi Aman, is solving questions from hc verman+ Allen coaching material+ irodov enough for physics in jee. I am also an Allen classroom student. So will it be enough if I don't study any book other than Allen module and hc Verma for physics
ReplyDeleteHello Aman bhaiya which book is better resnick halliday walker (Indian edition) or resnick halliday Krane ?
