Solving question papers from previous years is very useful for IIT JAM preparation because it gives an idea of the question pattern, and what kinds of questions are mostly repeated, and so makes one familiar with the pattern of the test. It also helps a candidate determine the kind of difficulty level of the exam and which topics to concentrate on more.
