JEE Advanced is a highly competitive exam that requires a thorough understanding of various topics in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Here are the topics and subtopics that you should focus on: A)Mathematics: 1.Algebra (especially complex numbers and quadratic equations): Complex numbers Quadratic equations Sequences and series Permutations and combinations Binomial theorem Mathematical induction 2.Trigonometry: Trigonometric functions and identities Inverse trigonometric functions 3:Analytical Geometry: Straight lines Circles Conic sections 4.Differential Calculus (especially limits, continuity, and differentiability): Limits, continuity, and differentiability Derivatives of elementary functions Applications of derivatives Maxima and minima 5.Integral Calculus (especially definite integrals and their properties): Indefinite integrals Definite integrals and their properties Applications of integrals 6.Vectors and 3D Geometry: Vectors and scalars Addition and subtraction of vectors Scalar and vector products Three-dimensional geometry B)Physics: 1.Mechanics: (especially laws of motion and rotational motion) Laws of motion Work, energy, and power Rotational motion Gravitation Elasticity Surface tension Fluid mechanics 2.Electrodynamics (especially electrostatics and electromagnetic induction): Electrostatics Current electricity Magnetic effects of current Electromagnetic induction Alternating currents 3.Optics (especially wave nature of light): Reflection and refraction of light Optical instruments Wave nature of light 4.Modern Physics: Atomic physics Nuclear physics Dual nature of matter and radiation Electromagnetic waves 5.Thermodynamics: Thermodynamic systems and processes Laws of thermodynamics Applications of thermodynamics C)Chemistry: 1.Physical Chemistry (especially chemical thermodynamics and chemical equilibrium): Basic concepts in Chemistry States of matter Chemical thermodynamics Chemical equilibrium Ionic equilibrium Electrochemistry Chemical kinetics 2.Inorganic Chemistry(especially chemical bonding and molecular structure): Periodic properties Chemical bonding and molecular structure Coordination compounds Metallurgy 3.Organic Chemistry(especially basic concepts in organic chemistry and hydrocarbons): Basic concepts in organic chemistry Hydrocarbons Alkyl halides Alcohol, phenols, and ethers Aldehydes and ketones Carboxylic acids and their derivatives Amines Biomolecules Again, it's important to note that each topic is essential for JEE Advanced, and you should strive to have a strong foundation in all of them. Focusing on the major topics will help you prioritize your preparation and allocate your time and resources more effectively.
