Hello,

Yes you are. There is no age bar for IIT JAM Exam. Any student who has completed B.Sc. degree can apply for the exam. This gives an opportunity to droppers and candidates who have surpassed the upper age limit for most of the exams. You should have Any one of Biology, Biotechnology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics for two years/four semesters , and any one of the other four subjects for at least one year/two semesters.

Hope for the best.

Thank you.

Hello Aspirant,

In order to prepare for Quantum Mechanics for IIT JAM Physics,

Quantum Mechanics - By Zetili / Griffith / Schaum's Series

is one of the highly suggested books. This book is recommended if you want to gain a thorough knowledge of the subject.

However, there are other alternatives to this book which can be considered as well.

Thank you!

Hello Aspirant,

In order to prepare for Mathematical Physics for IIT JAM :

• Schaum's Outlines series
  Mathematical Methods for Physics & Engineering: Riley, Hobson & Bence

is one of the highly recommended books.

However, since it is very lengthy in nature, it is suggested to read the topics individually from the books by the following authors

• Vector analysis and Fourier analysis:  M.R. SPEIGAL
• Differential equations:  KREZIG is the author recommended for theory and H.K. DASS is the author recommended for problems.

However, if you only want to buy one book, then

• Schaum's Outlines series
  Mathematical Methods for Physics & Engineering: Riley, Hobson & Bence

is a good choice.

Thank you.
