IIT JAM Preparation

1. Follow the official syllabus

Start with the syllabus for the selected JAM test paper and divide the preparation into subject-wise topics.

2. Understand all three question types

Preparation should cover MCQs, MSQs and NAT questions because the examination combines all three formats.

3. Practise official papers

Use official master question papers and final answer keys from previous JAM administrations to understand the actual level and structure of questions.

4. Practise numerical entry

NAT questions require candidates to enter a numerical answer using the virtual numeric keypad, so candidates should practise calculation and numerical-entry questions.

5. Use mock tests

The official JAM portal provides mock tests for the seven test papers. Mock practice should be combined with review of mistakes and time management.

6. Check programme eligibility

Before choosing a test paper, candidates should check the minimum educational qualifications and test-paper requirements of the postgraduate programmes they intend to target.
