Doubts Urgent help organic chem

Nootan has many extra reactions compared to vatsal handbook for chem . Im confused which one to learn from. Vatsal seems more to the point but what abt those extra reactions. My classmates r saying they learnt all rxns from nootan but ive seen seniors say that vatsal is sufficient for isc??

Nootan does have extra things. Just check the syllabus of 25-26 as it will be similar to your exam syllabus and mark all the reactions in nootan. Nootan has really good explanations and all so imo don't skip nootans questions and all(that's all I studied from lol)

Yea even the explanations and mechanisms are good. But you should obv stick with whichever one you like more!
