Video summary
You can crack IIT Bombay - Complete Roadmap to IIT JEE 🔥
Main summary
Key takeaways
Main ideas / concepts / lessons
- Purpose of the series: A student from IIT Kharagpur (with teammates from other IITs) is building a multi-part roadmap to help viewers crack IIT JEE with a good rank.
- What the series will cover (in order):
- Syllabus of each subject (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics)
- Chapter-wise weightage (for JEE Main and/or JEE Advanced)
- Best books for all three subjects
- A complete timeline (2-year plan) to finish the syllabus
- How to build a daily timetable
- Common mistakes students make while preparing for JEE
- Key mindset lesson: Many students create inefficient plans because they don’t understand the syllabus properly. Knowing the syllabus helps them save time.
- Use of screenshots: The speaker repeatedly asks viewers to take screenshots of syllabus and weightage images, because weightage changes every year. The screenshot becomes a reference.
Methodology / instructions (detailed)
1) Overall “first step” methodology
- Step 1: Understand the syllabus properly (the speaker stresses JEE Main vs JEE Advanced preparation exclusivity).
- Step 2: Identify:
- Subject syllabus
- Chapter weightage (changes every year/paper)
- Step 3: Take screenshots of:
- The syllabus image
- The chapter weightage image (The speaker mentions PDFs are possible, but asks viewers to do the extra effort of screenshots.)
2) Physics preparation instructions
Syllabus & reference handling
- Use the displayed syllabus image and take a screenshot to refer back later.
Attitude
- Physics is framed as easy, with a good number of questions in exams.
- The speaker acknowledges fear is common, but expresses preference/confidence.
Books recommended (and how to use them)
-
If targeting JEE Advanced (ER framework mentioned):
- Physics Galaxy (Book 1)
- Fundamentals of Physics by Halliday, Resnick, Walker (JEE “Edition”)
- If using the international version, print the JEE K syllabus and study only the topics mentioned.
- Pathfinder (Book 3)
- I.E. Irodov (Book 4)
-
If targeting JEE Main:
- Finish coaching material
- Finish HC Verma
- Finish Cengage Physics (especially the MCQ questions)
Book-selection guidance
- “Books are personal”: try multiple books initially, then stick with one for the rest of preparation.
- Mentions Alien series as possibly useful, but says it’s not personally preferred.
3) Chemistry preparation instructions
Core principle
- “Theory part is the king.”
Three-part structure
- Chemistry is presented as three different blocks, requiring three different approaches.
Syllabus & reference handling
- Take a screenshot of the chemistry syllabus image and follow it.
Inorganic Chemistry (approach + books)
- Primary rule: Know NCERT line-by-line
- Read and reread until you can recall exact pages/lines “even while sleeping” (used as a motivational benchmark).
- After mastering NCERT:
- Read class notes
- Use advanced references such as:
- Kansal’s Inorganic Chemistry for JEE Advanced — JD Lee
- Inorganic Chemistry — OP Tandon (name appears garbled in subtitles; intended meaning: OP Tandon)
Organic Chemistry (approach + books)
- Finish class notes
- Go through NCERT a couple of times
- Solve coaching material
- Then use reference books, such as:
- Advanced Organic Chemistry — Himanshu Pandey
- MS Chohan Organic Chemistry — MS Chohan
- Introduction to Organic Chemistry — Peter Sykes
- The speaker mentions Amazon as a trusted organic book choice (exact title unclear from subtitles).
Physical Chemistry (approach + books)
- Attend and “listen to the class,” then:
- Make notes
- Build formula memory
- Solve coaching material
- Then use a physical chemistry book such as:
- Physical Chemistry — Narendra Awasthi (strongly recommended)
- Or international alternatives:
- Atkins Physical Chemistry — Peter Atkins
- University Chemistry — Bruce H. Mahan and co-authors (subtitle suggests “Mahan/Jobeier”)
Syllabus precision warning (applies to all Chemistry)
- Don’t waste time on topics/questions not present in the syllabus. Stay precise.
4) Mathematics preparation instructions
Role of Math
- Mathematics is framed as increasingly decisive for rank.
- If two students have similar marks, Math becomes the tiebreaker (“match marks compared”).
Motivation / understanding link
- The speaker connects physics foundations to math capability and notes that research struggles without strong math problem-solving.
Syllabus & weightage
- Use the syllabus and chapter weightage images as guidance.
Chapters to boost score (action-oriented)
Prioritize:
- Coordinate Geometry
- Integral Calculus (noted as lengthy/tricky; needs speed + accuracy)
- Limits
- Quadratic Equations
- Statistics
- Sets and Relations
- Mathematical Reasoning
These are described as “easy to learn” and consistently present in questions.
Competitive edge strategy
- After core prioritization, aim for Calclus as the differentiator for tougher/longer problems.
Reference book guidance
- After finishing coaching materials, choose one from:
- S. Chand / “Singer series” / “Aryan series” (as referenced)
- Black Book — Vikas Gupta
- The speaker personally didn’t like Aryan series, but recommends Black Book—especially for very good JEE Advanced ranks.
5) Next steps in the series (teased)
The speaker says the next part will include:
- Best 2-year timeline
- Best daily schedule
- Most important things so students don’t waste their two years
Part 2 is announced to release the next day at 5:44 PM.
