Which are the best books for NEET preparation?

National Testing Agency (NTA) conducts the NEET examination every year in offline mode. It is considered one of the toughest examinations in India. A wide syllabus and complicated question paper make it tough for the students to crack the NEET exam. Students often ask, “Which are the best books for NEET preparation” and “Which is the best study material for NEET?”

Students have started their preparations for the NEET Exam 2022 and the NEET Exam 2023. There are a wide variety of study material and a huge range of books available in the material. Most of the publishers claim they have the best books or the best study material for NEET Exam. Maybe their claims are true but the question is, what criteria they have set to claim the best books for NEET?

When we go to the market, we find comprehensive study material. Though the syllabus is one, there are a hundred types of books and study material in the market. This often confuses us and we are unable to make the correct choice. “We should not purchase a book only on the basis of the reputation of a writer or the publisher”, says Noor Nawaz Khan, Director of Delhi-based premium coaching institute for NEET, The Hind Guru Academy in Okhla. “We should check whether the book covers all the topics, have an easy language, easy to understand and clears all our doubts”, he adds.

Actually, preparation for NEET is all about clearing our basic concepts and making the basic strategies. “It doesn’t matter how many pages are there in a book rather what matters is the content”, says Rachna Mittal, a Delhi-based Biology tutor for NEET, while adding that “a good book is the one that clears the doubts and strengthens our knowledge base.

Which book meets the criteria? Experts suggest, “NCERT books still lead the race”, though many publishers have come up with point-to-point, comprehensive books, and study material. Also, premium coaching institutes like Akash, Narayana, Bansal, and The Hind Guru Academy have developed their own study material. These institutes eliminate surplus topics, add a variety of questions and provide content that is easy to understand. Even though some of the institutes charge a high royalty for their study material, but it is worth purchasing.
