Physics is a multi dimensional subject and has to be studied from many different aspects. The purpose of this website is to provide students of class 11, 12 and entrance exam preparers with high quality study materials and useful resources.

Guidelines and FAQs for Students:

For CBSE and State Board exam success: Steps 1, 2, 3 are compulsory. Step 4 good to do.

Step 1: Theory, Concepts, Derivations:
CBSE or State board text books, Handbooks, Chapterwise Study (Useful simulations and collection of videos provided here), Study Notes.

Step 2: Numerical Practice: Examples, Exercises.
Solve the Numerical from your text book. 

Step 3: Numerical Practice: Chapter wise past paper questions
 Any one of the publishers such as Arihant, MTG, XAM Idea.

For Entrance exam success: Steps 4, 5 are compulsory for NEET, JEE Main, VITEEE, Amrita AEEE, KVPY, CUET etc. Step 6 compulsory for IIT aspirants.

Step 4: Numerical Practice: 
Competency Based Questions, Exemplar Questions from NCERT website

Step 5: Numerical Practice: 
Chapterwise NEET Past paper Questions, Chapterwise JEE Main Past paper Questions.

Step 6: Numerical Practice: 
JEE Advanced Past paper Questions, 
Practice questions from Concepts of Physics, HC Verma.

Above steps can be equally applied for other subjects such as Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology.

How much Physics should I do?
One hour of physics per day,
10 numerical problems per day, 
2 to 3 weeks per chapter, 
Approx. 100 problems per chapter,
Approx. 14 chapters in one year of class 11, 
Approx. 14 chapters in one year of class 12.

Do I need a teacher to learn Physics?
Starting from Galileo and then Newton, Faraday, Edison, Tesla, Einstein, CV Raman, we have some 400 years of Physics discoveries packed into two years of 11th, 12th and entrance exam preparation. You can study from your school teacher alone. It is possible. But most students will need a tutor to help you with your difficulties initially.

How to study Physics?
You can study Physics from everywhere. Sometimes from a teacher, sometimes from textbooks, handbooks, sometimes from videos and interactive simulations, sometimes from doing some simple experiments in your home or your school, sometimes from your friend, sometimes from solving numerical problems, sometimes from nature, sometimes while going in a car or train. Physics is all around you. You just have to keep your eyes open.

Physics and Mathematics?
Physics and Mathematics are like twin sisters. They always come together. While the first part of any numerical solving is formulating the problem using Physics concepts, the second part is always mathematical simplification using Drawings, Graphs, Algebra, Trigonometry, Differentiation, Integration, Vectors etc.

Newton was not able to solve some Physics problems and he had to invent a new stream of Mathematics called Integral Calculus.

Mathematics is the language of mother nature. Physics is all about studying the nature. That's why it was called as Natural Philosophy.

Why do I have to study Physics?
Physics is the foundation for all Engineering and Science majors in college such as Mechanical, Aeronautical, Electrical, Electronics, Structural, Nuclear Engineering, Architecture, Integrated M.Sc. Physics, Energy Physics, Applied Physics, Photonics, Reactor Physics, Biophysics etc.

Students with proper physics foundation, do very well in Engineering majors. Engineering is all about problem solving. So get used to physics problem solving if you are planning to get into Engineering.

I find Physics problems very difficult?
Everything is difficult, before it becomes easy. Just like any other skills such as swimming, driving, speaking new language, Physics is also difficult to begin with.

"Remember, no problem is difficult. Once you understand the theory, each problem will become easy." - Dr. H.C. Verma

I am afraid. I make lot of mistakes?
Newton has made lot of mistakes. Einstein has made lot of mistakes. The good news is we are all allowed to make mistakes and then correct them. It's the first step to arrive at a solution.
