Hi CSIR aspirants,
For any exam, first of all we should
have strong foundation in basic concepts. And my suggestion is refer your +1
/+2 (NCERT /CBSE) textbooks and that will do. Here we have given a list of some
outstanding reference books in different topics of biology that will definitely
help you in creating an interest in the subject (the most important thing) and
also in your exam preparation. Always read from the very beginning from the
introduction on wards to get the real picture in the most interesting way.
- Most books may contain key words, key points,
box, summary etc for your convenience
- Try to work out as many problems as possible
given at the end of each chapter
- Write down exceptional or important points
that may strike your attention
- After each chapter, work out questions from
previous question papers related to the topic studied
- For each subject you must go through the
glossary part that will help you in framing exact definitions and also
familiarizing with new words in the concerned subject
- Instant note series books are
information packed and probably the best data loaded and updated books for
exam preparation. So it would be better to go through those books after
having a fair knowledge about the concerned topic.
