Good Textbooks For Pharmacy Aspirants In Senior Secondary School (SSS)
Senior secondary school textbook
In senior secondary school, there are so many textbooks available for different subjects. However, the joint admission and matriculation board (JAMB) always gives out a list of recommended textbooks. This helps students to prepare in line with the new syllabus. Using a different textbook can make some questions look abstract. That is because those questions are curled from the recommended textbooks.

JAMB is not the only board that recommended the textbook. The West African examination council (WAEC) and national examination council examination (NECO) are two bodies that release lists every year also. However, most of these textbooks are the same.
Each subject comes with several recommended textbooks. It will not be wise to buy and read all of them. One of two is good for each one. Students are ways to confuse the type to buy. To buy the book that is recommended by both JAMB and WAEC or buy the book that you understand and recommended by only one of the bodies. The best is to buy the one you understand better.
Since pharmacist aspirants are in the sciences, I decided to list some textbooks that have gotten reputation over the years and have constantly appeared on the JAMB list of books for a long time now.
