Physics after Engineering

Our PAE (Physics After Engineering) community members have contributed to building this nice handy list of books they've gone through. Many thanks to them all, and here is the list.  This probably is the only student-made list on the internet! Comprehensive reviews of almost all the standard physics books are present. If you are preparing for exams like JAM & JEST, I'd recommend you to check the following posts about exam preparation. There are plenty of posts on JAM preparation in our blog by our beloved community members, here are a few most popular ones: IIT-JAM and JEST preparation  - Rishab Kaushik (AIR - 1 in both JAM & JEST) ⭐ The Road Not Taken!! - Harshul Gupta (AIR - 22 JAM & 54 in JEST) IIT JAM Preparation -Vaibhav Sharma (AIR - 5) On preparing for IIT-JAM Physics  -Niket Shah(AIR - 6) NOTE: UG level : Books that start with basics, does not contain much of PG level stuff. Both UG-PG level : Books that start with basics, contains a good amou...

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; . . . I shall be telling this with a sigh " delight " Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Starting with the lines of my favourite poet— Robert Frost, with " slight " modifications. I had a tough choice to choose between GATE-Electronics and JAM-Physics, I chose the one "less traveled by" and that has made "all the difference". NOTE : Those who don't want to read how I ended up in love with Physics but are here take notes regarding my preparation can head-up straight to the heading : " The Journey to AIR-22 (IIT-JAM) & AIR-54 (JEST) " My Eternal Love for Physics It predates back to the summer-vacat...

Disclaimer: The initial post titles set by authors are later modified by the editor to be catchy and SEO friendly, the authors bear no responsibility in this regard.         M any people have asked me for preparation tips and strategies for JEST and JAM. I will be telling you about my preparation for these exams in the post. But before that, I would like to add a disclaimer that there is no universal exam cracking strategy and exam preparations vary highly from person to person. A particular technique or resource(lectures and books) may be helpful for some while it may not be helpful for others. That said, I'll be sharing some strategies I employed. Book Suggestions              Being an engineer, I had an advantage of JEE preparation i.e. I was good with JEE level concepts. So, if one feels that he/she is not comfortable with JEE level stuff. I will strongly suggest to brush up those things first. Sources are the obvious on...

Here are some Frequently Asked Questions(FAQs) in our community on various platforms. We've asked some of our community members who have eminent knowledge to answer them. I am extremely thankful to them for obliging and taking time out to answer the questions. Here is the list of questions, answers are given below it: Can I study Physics after Engineering (B.E/B.Tech) in <Any> branch? I want to do a BSc in Physics after Engineering? How should I go about it? Can I pursue MSc Physics in IITs after Engineering, what is the eligibility criteria for admission? What are the preferred books for JAM?  What are the preferred books for JEST? What are some good books for practicing problems? Is it worth buying Fiziks or any other material? If I want to buy second-hand ones where can I get them? What are exam dates and application deadlines for JAM/JEST/TIFR-GS etc. ?  Is coaching necessary for JAM?  Which coaching institute is better, Career Endeavour or Fiziks...

              O ur group members have made it big!! They have been selected to many prestigious institutes like IITs(Mumbai, Delhi, Kharagpur Kanpur, etc), ICTS Bangalore, HRI Allahabad, IMSc Chennai, TIFR Mumbai, TIFR Hyderabad, IISERs and other universities like HCU, Pune University, etc.  Here is the link to our Telegram group "Physics after Engineering " where most of them are members. We've asked them to enter their details in this sheet along with their educational background to give readers an idea of where they have the rank to get into those institutes. Here is the list!! Note: These are not the only Engineers admitted in those institutes. People who went to the IITs and other institutes have found some other Engineers there in their class who are unaware of the blog and our groups. JAM Ranks JEST Ranks Also , do visit all other useful content of our blog  Physics after Engineering . Below is the link for our Whats...

       I'd like to start off by classifying exams into groups rather than viewing them individually, I'd strongly recommend readers to do the same, otherwise might lead to confusion-given the huge number of exams one can give. The point of separating by exam syllabus is that you can prepare yourself for all the exams under a group that has the same syllabus.    The Physics entrance exams can be divided into two categories broadly based on the education level of the students they're designed for, BSc level and MSc level. Do read the blog post [ How to do MSc Physics after B.Tech/B.E? ]  below to find out all the exams we can give. Here I'll be classifying and analyse them to see which of them suits whom. BSc Level Exams These exams are Screening tests for BSc grads to enter MSc or Integrated Ph.D. (MSc+PhD). All these exams have more or less the same syllabus, so preparing for one of them would mean you're mostly prepared for the other ones t...
