Ok. so since yall want more info on the books to buy for your quest to reach the most prestigeous insti in India in the field of technology and engi- da IIT
well nowadays 95% of the ppl that get selected in those 4000 sumthin ( which will soon become 5000 something) have formal training fromm the many ??coaching centres?? whose ad?s fill more than 70% of mathematics today magazine. and most of these places supply their own material, which in fact is made by plagiarism. anyways thats not the aim here, the aim is just
to let yall know what all books are well...good enough for the jee.
well let me go through the subject Mathematics:
TMH is good for solved examples, though this book doesnt have enough exercises, but then if ya cover the solution, a solved example is but a problem. each chapter has about 100 solved examples. and plz plz buy the latest edition. this might be around 450 bucks
PROBLEMS PLUS IN IIT MATHS by Das gUPTA. about 250 Rs
This bloke?s book has decent set of problems too. but ya knw in maths there is a lotta herapheri, you?ll see that most of the question are solved in TMH.
plz plz plz dont buy Khanna Series and the likes. These are just huge bums with lot of ?? i mean?? lot of shit. i mean do you really want 40 examples each subtopic. and from what i?ve heard, ML khannna has only solved examples. anyway
do get DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS AND INTEGRAL CALCULUS by Amit Agarwal by ARIHANTH, each RS 200. these are gr8 books the level of problems is good and so is the collection. you wont find much of these problems in other books
also for theory on calculus do get Thomas and Finney by Pearson Education ABOUT Rs 500, though bargaining will modify that.
This is a gr8 book and should be renamed ?? calculus for dummies??. it has lot of good examples, exercises, in depth theory, formulas, diagrams etc. and dont forget the CD.
then there?s the usual SL Loney, Shanti Narayan, Piskunov for vector,trigonometry and all that and calculus.
also must must must is ?? play with graphs?? by amit agarwal.... arihanth publications.
its superb. help you transform graphs and shit. very useful for mains and screening.
for other topics such as progression, inequalities, probability, school stuff along with solved examples should do.
also dont forget MCQ by bharati bhawan publications. and KD JOSHI should be read after completion of the chapter since its more of a revision book and not for a first timer. also KD has only JEE AND OLYMPIAD PROBLEMS .
if ya have cash left as well as the time, then get 3000 SOLVED PROBLEMS IN MATHS BY SCHAUM SERIES, by TMH.
Some topics are arranged on the basis of MCQ

ALGEBRA
COORDINATE GEOMETRY
VECTORS AND STATISTICS
DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS
INTEGRAL CALCULUS
