Are NCERT Books Enough for Cracking NEET 2024?
Aspiring medical students gearing up for the NEET 2024 face a critical question: Are NCERT books alone sufficient for success in this challenging exam? While NCERT (National Council of Educational Research and Training) textbooks undoubtedly form the core material for NEET preparation, delving deeper into this question reveals nuances that deserve attention.
Why NCERT Books Matter:
NCERT books are widely regarded as the foundation for NEET preparation. NEET's syllabus for 2024 is directly aligned with the NCERT syllabus of Class 11 and 12, encompassing Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. NCERT textbooks serve as the bedrock upon which a candidate's understanding and knowledge in these subjects are built. Toppers like AIR 1 Soyeb Aftab emphasize the importance of thoroughly mastering NCERT books, as they provide the fundamental concepts essential for every NEET question.
The Need for Supplementary Material:
While NCERT books offer a strong starting point, the NEET UG exam is an objective-type paper that requires extensive practice with multiple-choice questions (MCQs). To align your preparation with the expected difficulty level of NEET questions, it's beneficial to complement NCERT with additional resources.
Supplementary Books for NEET Biology:
NEET's Biology section covers Botany and Zoology. To excel in this subject, candidates may find the following supplementary books helpful:
- Biology Volume 1 and 2 by Trueman
- Objective Biology by Dinesh
- Objective Botany by Ansari
- Modern's ABC for Biology – Part 1 and 2
- Exploring Biology – 2 Volumes by Sanjay Sharma and Sudhakar Banerjee
- Medical Entrance Biology – 3 Volumes by Mamta R Solanki and Lalita Ghotik (Target Publications)
- Pradeep Guide for Biology
- GR Bathla Publications for Biology
These resources offer a deeper dive into Biology, covering topics with greater detail and varied question types.
Subject-wise Analysis - Physics and Chemistry:
Physics in NEET 2024 is renowned for its conceptual depth and numerical challenges. While NCERT Physics books establish a foundational understanding, it's advisable to explore supplementary materials for more comprehensive preparation:
- Objective Physics by DC Pandey
- Concepts of Physics by H.C. Verma
- Fundamental Physics by Pradeep
- Concepts of Competition Physics for CBSE PMT by Agarwal
- Objective Physics by Prof. Satya Prakash Arya (MTG Publishers)
- Fundamentals of Physics by Resnick, Halliday, and Walker
- Problems in General Physics by IE Irodov
These books provide in-depth explanations and practice problems to tackle the intricacies of Physics in NEET.
Similarly, NEET Chemistry spans three sections: Inorganic, Organic, and Physical Chemistry. To enhance your grasp of Chemistry, consider these supplementary texts:
- Objective Chemistry (Volume 1 and 2) by Arihant Publications
- Organic, Inorganic, and Physical Chemistry by OP Tandon
- ABC of Chemistry for Class 11 and 12 by Modern
- Objective Chemistry for NEET by R.K. Gupta
- Concise Inorganic Chemistry by JD Lee
- Objective Chemistry – 3 Volumes by S. Dinesh & Co.
- Practice Books by VK Jaiswal (Inorganic Chemistry), MS Chauhan (Organic Chemistry), and N Awasthi (Physical Chemistry)
These resources delve deeper into the intricacies of Chemistry, providing a solid base to tackle the diverse chemistry questions in NEET.
In conclusion, while NCERT books are indispensable for NEET 2024, they should be supplemented with additional resources to ensure comprehensive preparation. A combination of NCERT and these supplementary books can help aspiring medical students confidently navigate the challenges of this rigorous examination and pave the way for a successful future in medicine.
