I am a student of class 11th.

Only RD Sharma. You can purchase it for your 11th preparation and please clear your concepts regarding maths.

You can switch to HC Verma 'Concepts of Physics' and NCERT books for self studying effectively. You can also have a look at some of the Feynman lectures related to the syllabus of JEE Mains. Wish you luck.
