Since UGC has changed the pattern and now asking only objective type questions.
I've observed that many friends of mine have good understanding of the subject who can explain the concept but when it comes to singling out the correct choice, they get confused and feel utterly helpless.
The real issue at the core of the problem is that they lack practice of solving multiple choice questions.
For that I would highly recommend Kaplan GRE Psychology book. This book has highly condensed quality material that would enrich your understanding. Moreover the best part is that it has practice sets at the end of each chapter and the questions are very good and their explanation is excellent.
The student of Hindi Medium can refer to AK Singh's Pratiyogita Manovigyan but be cautious while solving objective questions because many friends have reported that there are many errors in the answer key.
If you find Kaplan GRE Psychology to be tough then start from CliffsAP Psychology. CliffsAP Psychology is easier than Kaplan GRE Psychology but can serve as a better starting point.

u did not mention about NCERT books..its really surprising..coz they are easier to follow and include most of the syllabus..its better than to go for different books for each topics..n of coarse focused study is better than struggle with many books n getting nothing.all the best n hv a great future ahead.
ReplyDeleteThank you for reminding me about the NCERT books. They are really very good basic books for gaining conceptual clarity. But the important thing is that you can't qualify the NET exam just by reading them alone because they don't cover the whole syllabus. They may cover the breadth but certainly do not fathom the depth.
ReplyDeleteA one more book i would like to add..... but i think its now out of market..that is IIMS Psychology having 11000 MCQ (many questions were repeated in that book but it helps a lot).
ReplyDeletehi.. thanks for information.
DeleteBut how can i find this book.. pls suggest
Hi All,
