Hello Student,

Actually it is quite impossible to tell about. However you can see the reviews and can have a general idea about that.

JAM examination is basically conducts to provide admission in various postgraduate degree course in national importance levelled colleges like IIT NIT IISCs .

You should have your marked test papers and should solve them thoroughly to have a better idea.However you can go to the link below to know

Hi Aspirant,

Good to see your interest in IIT JAM.Some of the books with basic preliminary knowledge will surely guide you a lot in cracking the examinations.Some of the books i am listing below.In this covid situation if your are having problem in purchasing the book you can directly order from the sited mentioned in bracket.

Some of the books are:

• Post Graduate Entrance examinations in Physics by Arihant publishers.(Amazon)
• JAM Physics for IIT JAM (Flipkart)
• IIT JAM Physics Solved Papers in Flipkart.

If you practise previous year's paper it would be really beneficial as it would help you to understand the pattern of the questions that come in IIT JAM.

• Physics by Khanna Editorial Team(Amazon)

Hope these books help!!

Dear aspirant,

Yes, thorough knowledge of NCERT books of 11th and 12th standard are essential for a good score in IIT JAM. The following chapters of 11th and 12th standard NCERT books  are of utmost importance :

1. Physical World and Measurement
2. Kinematics
3. Laws of Motion
4. Work
5. Energy and Power
6. Electrostatics
7. Current electricity
8. Magnetic Effects of Current and Magnetism

Hello aspirant.,

JAM is an extremely tough exam to crack as the availability of seats are low that doesn't mean the exam would be easier.

Now coming to the preparation. As you are in the first year itself make sure you study well for all the subjects so that it would make you easy at the last moment. Keep in check and write notes regarding the important topic which teacher taughts you as most topics would be hard when read at last moment. Make sure you keep your notes assembled at one place. This makes it easy for you whenever you want to revise the topics.

Some of the important things you should keep in mind are:

1. Check always the previous year papers so that you get a detailed version of exam

2. Make sure to keep mock test for every topic you read.

3. Revise everyday small topics whenever you get time.

4. If possible do listen about the topic as it makes things easy for you.

If you think you it would be better if you go for caoching classes then go for it. If you can read at home then you can do it by following these steps.

Hope this helps you

All the best

Hi Omkarnath,

The best YouTube channel for IIT JAM physics is Sumit Sir Classes. He teaches engineering physics very well and if you are preparing for IIT JAM or GATE or NET then his videos would be very helpful for you. Also, he teaches very nicely.

Feel free to ask doubts in the Comment Section.

I hope this information helps you.

Good Luck!

Hello,

Syllabus for Physics for IIT-JAM:-

1. mathematical methods
2. Mechanics and general properties of matter
3. Oscillation , waves and optics
4. electricity and magnetism
5. Kinetic theory and thermodynamics
6. Modern physics
7. Solid state physics, device and electronics

You can start in your way of approach. Go for easy chapters. Make notes while studying. solve numericals. Understand steps. while solving any numerical make sure you remember the condition. for different condition, different formula and principle is used.  Make note of it.

progress to hard topics. cover those 2-3 times. solve more numericals. appear chapter wise mock test for hard chapters. Follow RD Sharma SL Arora for basic concepts.

for theory part like theorem, rules and principles, make flow chart and read it in your free time. read it multiple time so that you can remember the flow.

Hi

No, your marks in 10+2 or HS is not taken in account for IIT JAM eligibility

To be eligible for IIT JAM examination for MSc physics you need to hace studied  Physics for at least two years or four semesters and Mathematics for at least one year or two semesters in your graduation  and must have got at least 55% or 5.5 CGPA in your graduation if you belong to general or obc category and at least 50% or 5 CGPA in your graduation if you belong to Sc or St category. So if you fulfill this criteria then you are eligible for IIT JAM for Msc physics

Thank you

Hey

IIT-JAM is examination through which one can get admission into Masters program of Sciences and Economics in IITs' and NITs'.

The choice of coaching solely depends on you, you need to see which suits you according to distance, locality, and fees. And you can also consider the results these coaching centers produce every year. But you should focus on self study more, coaching are just for guiding you. Here's the list of IIT-JAM coaching in Delhi, based on result:

• Career Endevour, GTB Nagar
• DIPS Academy, GTB Nagar
• Path Finder Classes, Vijay Nagar
• Alpha Plus, Punjabi Bagh

All the best

Sorry to say but it seems impossible. As there are more than 445 seats available in JAM Physics. Each institute has different number of seats available for JAM physics. Maximum of 40 seats are available in each institute for IIT JAM in Physics. For general category, each institute provides around 20 seats for JAM Physics candidates.

For admission in IITs you need less than 500 rank while for admission in various NITs via CCMN counseling,you require rank less than 2000. So better to go for CCMN ciuncounse and then try for better state institutions and private institutions.

Hello,

The closing ranks for NITs depend on a variety of factors.According to last years result the closing ranks for Physics for OBC category are give  below :

NIT Jamshedpur - 2221

NIT Jalandhar - 2059

NIT Hamirpur - 2261

NIT Agartala - 2098

As you can see the closing ranks for most of the NITs falls under 2300.So it is difficult to get admission with your rank but keep in mind that the cut off ranks vary every year.Check out the link below to know more about the closing ranks :
