Hi,

There are six papers in iit jam. A candidate has to select the papers according to his/ her eligibility.

The papers are-

Biotechnology (BT), Chemistry (CY)

Geology (GG) ,Mathematical Statistics (MS), Mathematics (MA),Physics (PH)

The syllabus for biotechnology paper comprises subjects biology, chemistry,mathematics and physics.

It includes

BIOLOGY (10+2+3 level)

CHEMISTRY (10+2+3 level) MATHEMATICS (10+2 level)

PHYSICS (10+2 level)

Though the math is included in the syllabus of iit jam papers. But for admission to some courses it is not necessary while for some courses math is compulsory.

Hope this helps.
