Yes, there are several reference books and study materials available for the HSEE exam conducted by IIT Madras. The HSEE exam is conducted to offer admission to the integrated Master of Arts (MA) program in Development Studies and English Studies. 

Here are some of the popular books and study materials that you can refer to for the HSEE exam:

There are various textbooks available which you can refer to for the preparations of the HSEE Examinations conducted by IIT Madras. One of my friends studied there. So, I will be listing the books he used while studying here.

The following are some of the recommendations that you can consider for your preparations:

English

  • Word Power Made Easy (By: Norman Lewis)
  • Wren and Martin High School Grammar

Economy

  • CBSE Class 11 Textbook: Indian Economic development
  • CBSE class 12 Textbook: Introductory Macroeconomics
  • CBSE class 12 Textbook: Introductory Microeconomics
  • Indian Economy (By: Dutt & Sundaram)

Current Affairs

  • Success Mirror
  • Pratiyogita Darpan
  • Competition review

History

  • Modern History (By: Bipin Chandra)

For other subjects like Political Science, Geography, and Sociology, you can refer to the content of the NCERT Textbooks of Classes 11th and 12th. Additionally, you can refer to the Material provided by your Coaching Institutes.

You should practice writing essays from the various topics in the previous year’s question papers.English and Maths are of class 10 level. Read the newspaper daily. Try to stay updated with the current events. All these will help in your preparation for the exam.
