Commonly asked questions
A score above 75 is considered a good score. 75 marks will help to obtain a rank between 1 and 80. This mark will help to get admission to IIT JAM participating institutes.
For each Test Paper All India merit list is prepared based on AIR. The number of candidates included in the All India Merit List is based on the total number of seats available in each category (GEN/ OBC-NCL/ EWS/ SC/ ST/ PwD) in a given subject.
Physics is one of the most sought course of choice among students who want to take admission in IITs, IISc, etc. It is for this reason alone that IIT JAM Physics paper is extremely competitive. Thus, when preparing for the Physics paper in JAM exam, candidates are suggested to pay less attention to the number of books from which they are studying and more emphasis on finding the topics that will help them score more.
To have an effective prep plan for IIT JAM Physics paper, students should have a timetable in place and make notes of important formulas that will make their last-minute preparation easy.
