Books for JEST |AIR-6|Chintan Patel, TIFR Mumbai
Here is a post on Books, lectures, and notes recommendations for JEST physics. [We recommend you also go through this excellent post by Deepamla(AIR 3) on How she cracked JEST]
Electromagnetism: Griffiths Electrodynamics(excellent for problem solving). The book is more than enough for any physics entrance exam.
Quantum mechanics: Again, Griffiths QM is a self-contained book. Book by Prof. Ajoy Ghatak is also nice
Lectures: MIT OCW lectures by Prof. Allan Adams(highly recommend) and Prof. Barton Zweibach.
Statistical physics: Lecture notes by Prof. David Tong. Reif statistical physics is a standard. book
Lectures by Prof. John Preskill are highly recommended.
Classical mechanics: Taylor's CM is an excellent book for problem-solving. Landau Lifshitz mechanics is also recommended.
Special Theory of Relativity: I found Rindler’s book on relativity very helpful.
I highly recommend solving problems from this site:sites.google.com/site/likharevegp/part-em-classical-electrodynamics
You can find Problem sets for all subjects in it.
I have also uploaded some PDFs of some amazing problems.
