EE paper now days require covering of almost entire syllabus. The approach is to read from
the textbooks and practice their solved examples and previous year papers of IES (both E&T
and EE) and CSE. Also most of the topics are not covered by the single book. I have also
given the reference sources. Stick to the syllabus for all the topics.
Paper I
1. Circuit Theory: A. Chakrabarti (Dhanpat Rai)
2. Signals and systems: Oppenheim and Willsky. For DFT/FFT, refer to Oppenheims book
on DSP. For better coverage of z-transform, refer any Indian author. (I had Sanjay Sharmas
book)
