The way forward to ace your JEE paper well is to study the correct preparatory IIT JEE books. But very often we end up getting confused from which IIT preparation book should we study from and from which book we should not? How to choose our reference book? Because every second book is the best and so is very author. You don’t have all the time under the sun… Do you? So how do you choose you’re the one book?
Self-study is one of the most important aspect required by any JEE aspirant and students take up toll by studying many IIT JEE preparation books. Coaching Institutes and professors act as a catalyst in achieving your success. Due to lack of guidance, students often end up wasting their precious time. We, at Mathongo are here to help to consolidate the list of iit books which have been favored by various teachers and professors for years.
