book recommendation
I talked to one of my seniors and he recommended VK Jaiswal for inorganic chem and ms chouchan for organic
Are these good?
I think he had a school module aswell, whereas I don’t

Hey, Stormy. I have a quick question. Are you preparing for JE main or NEET or advanced?

If it's J main or neat, I see on your tag it's got J. You just need ncrd, you don't need anything else. For practice questions, there is exemplar, there is pyqs, that's enough, more than enough. Once you do all this, after that you do anything extra.
@iTeachChem jee, yah I don’t have modules and I learn the best through practising questions and seeing their answers/concepts so I need a good books for questions yk so I was wondering if these were good cuz I need to order asap
even our chemistry teacher said to buy these book because he said that the modules of our Coaching(aakash) have good enough quantity and quality of questions for mains but not much for Advanced... completely agreed with @iTeachChem sir but since we have been told ki modules are enough for Mains im not focusing much on NCERT ke questions(ive solved them nonetheless koi kami kyu hi chode)
modules are random for jee main cos they havent updated them (as far as i know) agar update kiya hai to be word to word from ncert then sure go for it
advanced ke liye gotta read reference books!
not very sure about theory part uske liye to i only refer NCERT or humare sir ke notes i was more focusing on Questions...theory im not too sure about it cuz ive found some things which our sir told us to note down that wasnt in the theory of module but uske questions mile in PYQs
right so for that reference books along with ncert
(not the ones mentioned on this post originally)
@iTeachChem is vk jaiswal good for inorganic, i just got started with inorganic so pls lmk
adv wise

By that I mean PYQs, you have advanced questions, you have mids ke papers hain and you have solutions to most of these books by looking up VKJS wala jo bhi hai. To sab cheez by juice pe uska solution freely available hai.
until now i was using my isc textbook which is basically copy paste ncert
Did he say these books are good? For both mains and advanced?

***** .but i wanted deeper understanding with theory cus i dont feel this is sufficient, will give jd lee a try now
idk about mains i bought these for Advanced but lemme say the Mains level questions are good as well...very unique questions that truly test your understanding of chapter... maybe JD Lee is also good @iTeachChem sir is recomending it so it must be good but i dont have it so i cant say much but jitna i have used it till now it has good questions...Advanced ka questions are also 🤌🏻
VK Jaiswal im talking about rn MS Chouhan is for Organic and wo abhi start nahi hone wali hai
jd lee looks intimidating af 💀
Oo okkk thankyou so much! I’ll buy it asap also it is the 17th edition right?

जेरी ली में सिर्फ थियोरी है, सवाल उसके बहुत है लेबल के हैं और इंदेस नौट वर्थ दोंग थे। कम एक्षाटर अधूल थे, पड़ा दोना जो जेरी थी जब मुझे कहा रहा हूँ। पड़ा दोना जो जब मुझे कहा रहा हूँ, कम एक्षाटर अधूल थे, वो पड़ा दोना जो जब मुझे कहा रहा हूँ।
Yah my mom already put it in the cart lol just wanted to make sure it was the latest edition
ill send you an amazon link if you want but once check out JD Lee as well
and yea 17th
Oh ok thankyou so much! As for the link I got it :] tysm again ur kind
Oh id prefer to have the real book tbh
ahh cool
Thankyou so much tho:] will check out jd lee too
Should I buy MS Chouhan now or wait until organic starts?
u go coaching? in which case they usually just start of organic at the start of the year
wait what 💀
Yah, but we r at inorganic rn
im self study but the ppl ik who go to allen and aakash in my city have done quite a bit of organic already
I don’t think we are any where close to organic
O damn
like they defo did more than stereo isomerism for sure, beyond that idk
they did it simultaneously idk
bhai humare yaha to nahi kiya 💀
Oh yah maybe they had diff tracks, it is nit like that for us
It’s fine they prob know what they r doing
yea i have my full trust
one guy from our branch got 99.8%ile in mains and 1163 rank in Adv. sooooo whatever they tell me to do im doing it
Also N avasthi is good for inorganic right?
Oo damn
its just question spam man
i mean level 2 qs are good but if u spend time doing every single q in level 1 its stupid
yothats for Physical Chem
air 53 good night (idk why i didnt join coaching)
O any other book then?
not inorganic
Ohh yah sorryyy mixed up
oh yea n acasthi is physical
but zumdahl and p bahadur WAYYY better for physical, saying from experience
I do cengage now, ik it is bad so I need another book asap
really?
100%
For questions as well? Ppl say zumdahl is a bit deeper
qs i do from p bahadur
Haven’t heard of it will do search abt it
u can do qs from zumdahl as well but i use it mostly for theory
The person who told me N avasthi got 500 something air
its pure qs book no theory
Theory I don’t have much problem bc sir teaches quite well
Oh okk
idk i didnt like it personally, solving liek 200 qs all of them being direct formula in level 1 felt very unproductive
but level 2 qs are genuinely good
O
So should I buy it or not? Like as my base book
I am planning to ditch my cengage and do some other book properly, so I have to pick wisely
p bahadur >>> imo
but u can prob find pdf online of both just look into it and make informed decission
Okiii, good for mains and advanced?
yep p bahadur will cover mains and adv
Oh okk thankyou so much
For now I’ll order the vk Jaiswal
jd lee is smthing else 💀
If I need questions for atomic structure I’ll try finding the pdfs and look thru, next week we have cumulative test
yep do that, u will be able to make out which book ur more comfortable with
Wait jd lee or vk Jaiswal? For questions
Mhm will def do that, will look into it tomorrow
check both out VK Jaiswal i have it and imo its good JD Lee hume nahi pata
jd lee is pure theory
Okiiii tyyy
Oh Alrr I’ll buy if needed then rn we only did two chaps in inorganic, also check DM plss
YOU GOT 2 DONE?
weow
Periodic classification and chemical bond I mean we r still at chemical bond but MOT and some stuff r left , we did only 1 chap in physical tho
woah
What abt u
bro im trying to finish chemical bonding but periodic properties main qs wont get solved
i mean the very basic ones do, but i feel i need deeper understanding of theory
For periodic properties imo only textbook enough, for chemical bonding some thing r not covered tho
i did isc textbook(ncert copy), allen module and still feel insufficient
For periodic classification ?
we got all chapters till periodic done and we will start chem bonding soon (school ke chakkar me hold pe daala gaya hai)
yea, its like they ask such random qs man
Ooo coool
I didn’t face it prob bc I used cengage , it answer key and wuetsions too r not that good
i mean the main properties i can do, but then hydrides they ask off 💀 , i didnt even know that was a subclass of qs that can be asked until i was done with the chap fully
To make u feel better, I have no clue what u r talking abt , I have to revise this chal for next week anyways so I’ll suffer too
im so sorry, 🙏 gl
Lol why u sorry? And ty 🙂
older editions better waise :P
agar already le liya then dw
also no piracy here!
ahh sorry ill del the msgs
O only new edition available tho lol
