In this post, I will be telling you about my preparation journey for all the entrance exams like JAM, GATE, TIFR and NBHM. For those who wanted to know about my journey from engineering to mathematics can have a look ( Journey ). First, starting with the list of books. For every book below, you will also find the reason why I chose that particular book. 1.
