    2. Checkout the list of best books for IIT JEE preparation that are mentioned above. The idea is to understand the theory behind some of the more advanced topics that may not be covered in the NCERT textbooks. Also you have to practice more and variety types of questions which cannot fulfilled by NCERT textbooks only.
    3. You don't need to buy all the books listed here. For IIT JEE preparation, quality matters more than the quantity. A well prepared JEE study material is sometimes more than enough. You can also go through your coaching material if it is up to mark. Also never do any chapter same time from two ir more different books.

Irodov, Halliday, Resnick and Walker because they are not specially designed for IIT JEE aspirants and they contain many topics out of IIT-JEE syllabus.
