JEE Advanced Physics Syllabus – Topic Wise Detailed Syllabus
JEE Advanced syllabus for Physics has been designed in such a way that it offers very practical and application-based learning to further make it easier for students to understand every concept or topic by correlating it with the day-to-day experiences. JEE Advanced for physics is developed to test the deep understanding and application of concepts.

It’s syllabus is as difficult and vast, therefore, it is important to develop a clear understanding of concepts from the very beginning itself.
So,tet the basics right and then move on to mastering advanced concepts. Besides, securing better marks in JEE Advanced 2020 demands a solid conceptual base with broad knowledge on its applications. Candidates can start their preparations from NCERT textbooks.
Additionally, students can also check the comprehensive list of all the chapters in IIT JEE Maths and Chemistry syllabus from the below links.
