IIT JAM 2026 Course Wise Seat Matrix

Aspirants who have already completed an undergraduate degree (BSc) or are currently studying in the final year of undergraduate programmes are eligible to apply for the exam. Before starting the preparation for IIT JAM 2026 MSc courses, students must check the number of seats available for each course in particular IITs and NITs. After evaluating the number of seats candidates will be able to analyze the extent of IIT JAM preparation required by the candidates. If the number of seats for a particular degree course is more, then candidates can expect a higher JAM 2026 Score for competition than the courses for which the number of seats is less in proportion. 

This section will contain the category-wise number of seats available in a particular subject at the JAM 2026 participating institutes. Candidates must note that the information provided here is taken from the Seat Matrix details released by the JAM 2026 exam authorities.
