morrison boyd is advanced...it doesnt have basics n nomenclature..

see ncrt first then go for either rk gupta or morrison(not recomended)

do probs from op tandon to get a good practise and get familiar with the probs..

First read NCERT books then I would suggest Organic Chemistry by Wade Jr. and Peter Sykes or Sanyal and Sanyal for mechanisms.

Morrison and Boyd contains so much stuff which is not actually required and it is a bit higher level too.Solomon is also good.Don't follow Arihant for theory in Organic Chemistry.

Begin with NCERT book. Then go for Arihant/ MTG. If you have good grasping power and can read with patience go to Morrison, though advanced it may be regarded as authentic text for organic. Wade is good , if you can use it along with student manual it will more useful. Finar vol I should also be available with every student of organic as it deals with almost every possible reaction with mechanism and is authentic text.
Last but not the least, spending quality time in study is more important than merely collecting more and more books.Every individual will advice you a different book and your book shelf will be crowded with numerous books, when you will not have enough time to refer to them and will simply confuse you.
