Admission to Integrated Mathematics programmes consists of 2 stages. The 1st stage is an entrance examination. The syllabus and exam pattern are enlisted at: http://univ.tifr.res.in/gs2020/Files/Maths_Syllabus.pdf . The exam pattern is MCQs and True or False. The syllabus includes topics like Algebra, Analysis, Toplogy and General. The chapter wise topics are available in the link. You need to practise them in English if not for the entrance exam but atleast for studying Masters. This is because the medium of instruction will be in English. During the interview, they do not check your communication skills but they check for your subject knowledge. So they might understand that you are coming from Hindi Medium and might be okay if you answer questions in Hindi too. But should you be shortlisted for Interview, please ask their permission if you can answer in Hindi.

• Solving past year papers of atleast last 10 years
• Finding your strong and weak points through past year papers and then devoting your time accordingly
• If by chance any topic remains unstudied in the vicinity of exam date than better than covering that topic revise your strong points and forget about that topic.
• Every topic has different weightage, try to cover those topics which have more weightage like conic section in maths, mechanics and optics in physics etc.
• Some topics which are there in jee mains are not in jee advanced like semiconductor, linear programming, reasoning etc so for advanced study smartly with knowledge of syllabus.

Hello Almas,

JEECUP happens to be the official gateway to the UP Polytechnic College. JEECUP 2020 is divided into groups (A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I, J and K) and the syllabus and the exam pattern differs from course to course. JEECUP is going to be held in offline mode. 100 questions are to be asked with the students needing to complete them in 3 hours.

For Group K5 (Information Technology), the syllabus is expected to be based on ITI (2 year’s course) trade-wise and Class 10 ^th , 11 ^th & 12 ^th as per the course syllabus of the UP Board.

Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics will carry a weightage of 40% while Information Technology will carry a weightage of 60%.

Since topics in JEECUP 2020 are mostly based on the UP Board Syllabus for Class 10 ^th & 12 ^th , the textbooks prescribed by the board are recommended.

Moreover, there are a few books available which can guide one properly:

1. Uttar Pradesh Polytechnic Entrance Exam by Dr. Lal and Jain

2.  UP Polytechnic  Entrance Exam Guide by Vidya Editorial Board

3. Uttar Pradesh  Polytechnic  Exam Physics/Chemistry/ Mathematics with Previous Years' Solved Papers by Arihant Publications
