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.

Dear aspirant

You will be able to know about proper time management and your weakness and therefore you can then develop and work on your mistakes by practicing sample papers.

Hello,

You can prepare for IIT JAM from first year itself in gradual yet consistent manner, however you have to sustain the dedication which can become quite challenging for a lot of students, you can do certain things like getting acquainted with the exam pattern, marking scheme, important topics, syllabus etc, keep a print out of syllabus with yourself, that comes handy during preparation process, the entrance test is conducted for three hours having three sections, there will be a total of 60 questions for 100 marks, visit our page at https://university.careers360.com/articles/jam-exam-pattern to know more details regarding this, you can get acquainted with the syllabus at https://university.careers360.com/articles/jam-syllabus, you have to make a timetable once you get into serious mode based on daily, weekly and monthly schedule, choose appropriate study materials, and keep the options limited, since practice is key towards excellence especially in case of maths, hence this is something which you cannot skip at any point, and make notes pertaining to formulas, tips and tricks etc, this will help you a lot during revision, go through previous year papers at https://university.careers360.com/articles/jam-sample-papers, this will make you acquaint with exam pattern, marking scheme, important topics, weightage etc, and through consistent practice you can analyze your level of preparation and thereby improve your speed, and calculation.

Hello Aspirant,

As per your query, following are the eligibility criteria that students are required to fulfill.

Nationality – Indian/Foreign

Bachelor’s degree in science with required  percentage.

*Either appearing or already passed final examination of a qualifying degree.*

If you have qualified for the 2022 JAM exam, you can apply for provisional admission.

You have to fulfill all these eligibility criteria to get admission in IIT.

As per the criteria I think you cannot get admission in second year directly even after qualifying IIT JAM. For more reference you can eligibility criteria for the same.

Hope you found this answer helpful. Feel free to ask if you have any doubts.

All the best!!

No not necessary but to be more precise and accurate you can write it as well but at the back. If you've not uploaded the photo then do so with the name and date printed underneath. If you've uploaded without this, no issue as well. All the best!

Hello,

I always preferred UNACADEMY . Because,

1. The 1st fundamental problem with the concept of UNACADEMY is that everyone can be a teacher. Well this is wrong. Everyone can not become a teacher for teaching thousands of students. To be a good teacher one should have knowledge, experiance,maturity and on the top of it the teaching skill which is lacking in the UNACADEMY TUTORS I am not saying that a new teacher can not teach well but he also starts teaching from a small no.of students. With time and experiance he sharps its edges. But in UNACADEMY a newbie can also address large people by bypassing this essential process.
2. Most of the content is of a surface level.

HOPE FOR THE BEST.

THANK YOU.

Dear Aspirant,

Yes, you can start your preparation from 1st year itself. First of all, you have to check the syllabus of Physics and then prepare accordingly.

Second thing is that you have to be equally focused on each chapter and clear all your concepts. Some of the chapters will be in the second or third year of your course curriculum.

Then after that check out the previous year's question papers in the link given below and see the types of questions you can expect in the exam.

https://university.careers360.com/articles/jam-sample-papers

You can also go for coaching as it will help you a lot and clear your basic concepts and doubts. These classes conduct mock tests and exams to prepare you well for the exam.

I hope it helps.

Thank you

Hello,

You can apply for MSc Biotechnology through IIT JAM for that you need to pass graduation from a recognized university securing 55% aggregate, there is relaxation of 5% for reserved categories, candidates in their final year too can apply provisionally, in case of MSc Biotechnology candidates are just required to have studied biology at 10+2 level when it comes to graduation there is no such restrictions of having specific subject combinations, you can go through our page at https://university.careers360.com/articles/jam-eligibility-criteria to know more details regarding this.
