Need advice for ISC. Just promoted to Class 11 PCMB.

Hey! I just got promoted to ISC but I got less than 95% is ICSE due to procrastination habits etc. but now I've completely recovered and don't use the phone while studying, procrastinate, etc.

In 20 days I've already finished the theory portion of NOOTAN physics, NCERT plant systems, cell and modern atomic structure, bonding and I know basic binomial expansion, calculus and all other class 11 math concepts. I don't know from where I should start practice and which book should I use. My school has given ML Aggarwal maths and Srijan Biology and Kalyani Chemistry (has about 800-1000 pages).

I am willing to research on quantum information technology and I'm learning machine learning, data science and computational physics as a hobby and targeting IISER (can give very little time to these due class 11)

Any advice would be really appreciated!

Sorry as this may not be the right time as everyone is knee deep in iat prep. I have given icse and am waiting for results. My general interests are in abstract mathematics and quantum mechanics and I have good knowledge of linux and cybersecurity. I havent used qiskit and other computational physics as of now, but i will start later, if i get time. Aiming for IISER Kolkata, I want to take up Quantum Optics and Quantum Technology (QITT). Please give me some advice, I don't face the problem of being distracted by phone while studying (only use calculator and asking doubts, no problem of doomscrolling and procrastination) and I have completed the theory portion of all class 11 NOOTAN physics chapters.

I have taken sciastra homi 2.0, but I am fairly ahead as of now and I really really believe in self study. I just need some good books and problem practice recommendations, as of now I have NOOTAN and HC Verma for physics (old 2019), Kalyani ISC chemistry with about 1500+ pages and NOOTAN and Srijan biology with around 1000 pages, but i dont have any idea on how to properly start, please guide me, any help will be highly appreciated!
