Which books are good for the preparation of NEET UG AIIMS and JIPMER?
The first advice would be to solve your DPP or CPP modules which the coaching centers provide as those are well referenced from previous exams. After that, apply for a monthly or a weekly test series by any reputed coaching institute. These will gradually point out your mistakes and prepare you for the final exam. Give preference to solving questions rather than reading the theory.
The books which would be good for the preparation are: -
- Physics: - D Mukherjee, HC Verma for numerical, also get hands-on some IIT question papers.
- Chemistry: - IOC by Orion Publication for inorganic. MS Chauhan for organic and N Avasthi for physical chemistry.
- Biology: - NCERT is more than enough for it. Solve as many MCQ for practice so that you can retain all that info quickly.
Some additional preparation sources other than those mentioned above would also prove beneficial. Solve questions of previous year’s JEE exams so that you can get the command over Physics and Chemistry. Moreover, practice organic chemistry a lot since it takes most of the time in the Chemistry section.

How did Yogesh Jindal learn finance concepts taught at IIM Ahmedabad? Did he take any special coaching?
My sister was in Yogesh Jindal’s batch and had asked about his understanding of finance concepts. He told her that initially he thought finance was rather a tough one for him but he utilised the maximum resources available and managed to score good marks even without coaching classes. Some tips he shared along the way are:
-
Attending remedial classes: Remedial classes are organised by seniors who have already understood the concept. It helps in adding points to their CV while for us we get free knowledge from the best.
-
Group discussion: Make friends that will help you clear any doubts.
-
Preparing before the class: We usually ignore this crucial step. Preparing before the class helps in better understanding of the concepts
-
Interact with teachers: Take help from your teachers in case of any queries inside or outside the class. It’s better to clear doubts in the class than regret it later.
Yogesh Jindal did not necessarily employ extensive means to score well. He simply had put a lot of effort in basic things and paved his own way.
What are some things to do a month before joining an MBA from IMT, Ghaziabad?
The campus life at IMT Ghaziabad is very stressful and fast-paced. You need to prepare for this well beforehand so that you don’t end up in a slump. I have listed a few skills you can adopt to make your best time in IMT Ghaziabad.
- Time management: This is the most crucial skill you need to inculcate before joining IMT Ghaziabad or any other B School. You cannot make the best use of all the opportunities offered until you know how to manage and prioritize your time. The first year is packed with assignments, group projects, case readings, committee work, competitions, and mid-term assessments. You need to learn to manage your time to make the best out of these.
- Presentation skills: These include skills to use software tools like MS PowerPoint, Prezi, etc. to create a visually effective presentation. You can also work on your presentation delivery skills.
- Data Analysis: The pedagogy for most courses is case-based that will include appendices of financials. Apart from this, most companies today are data-driven, and having specialization in the same will only increase your profile and potential.
- Social Skills: IMT Ghaziabad batch size is usually bigger than other B Schools. The more people the more variety of backgrounds you will be dealing with. So it's best you prepare yourself to interact with them both informally and formally during Group Discussions and committee events.
Apart from acquiring the above skills, take extra care of your physical and mental health, get lots of sleep and spend time with your family
Which is the best department and subject in IIT Delhi for ESE preparation for civil engineering?
IIT Delhi's Civil Engineering department has a total of 7 branches namely
- Structural Engineering
- Geotechnical Engineering
- Transportation Engineering
- Environmental Engineering
- Water Resources Engineering
- Rock Engineering
- Construction Engineering and Management
The ones that I will recommend you not to join include - Structural, Geotechnical, Transport, and Water Resources. This is because you are planning to prepare for ESE which won’t be possible because of the demanding and rigorous curriculum of these branches.
Construction Engineering and Management is a good choice as the coursework is light in comparison to others. Rock Engineering is another good option but the future scope is limited because it’s not a major branch of Civil Engineering.
The most common choice among aspirants is Environmental Engineering with the least burden and great opportunities.

How shall we prepare for essay writing and GK for XAT to get into XLRI? As this pattern was absent in CAT, how shall we cover these sessions in this short span?
There are no fixed strategy to tackle the essay section of XAT. The essay topics are usually unpredictable. Usually, the topics are abstract in nature. It’s often observed that the topics are based on a common idiom or phrase with an implied philosophical hint. The aim of this section is to judge your language skill as well as your thought process. Practice writing sample essays on various topics and assess them on content and writing style. Reading the editorial section of national newspapers can be helpful for this section.
For the GK section, you should focus more on Economics and Business related topics. Prepare current affairs for the last 6 months. For Static GK read about awards, geography, books & authors, cabinet ministers, and government yojanas.
