What is a Good Score in IIT JAM 2025?

IIT JAM 2024 exam shift 1 was found to be moderately easy by maximum candidates who appeared for Mathematics, Chemistry, and Geology subjects. Questions were designed in such a manner to test their analytical and practical approach of the concerned subject. Maximum number of candidates who have appeared in the IIT JAM 2024 exam had their first attempt in the examination. The Chemistry section has been rated as easy to moderate. Some of the topics included Molar Conductivity, Magnetic Moments, Titration, Bonds, etc. As per some candidates, the MCQ questions were tougher than the MSQs and NAT questions. The Geology section has questions from topics such as geomorphology, mineralogy, and petrology were moderately difficult.  

Candidates who want to appear for the IIT JAM exam for Physics course admission should formulate a strategy to crack this Science entrance exam. Here, it is important that candidates go through important IIT JAM Physics books, identify important topics, and thereafter solve as many IIT JAM question papers as they can. This is a sure-shot way of getting a good rank in the IIT JAM result.

Candidates can go through important topics that they should study to score well in the IIT JAM exam in the table mentioned below:

Chemistry paper in IIT JAM exam consists of questions from subjects like – Physical Chemistry, Organic Chemistry and Inorganic Chemistry.

The weightage of questions asked from different subjects in the IIT JAM Chemistry paper is as mentioned below:

Candidates can go through important topics that they should study to score well in the IIT JAM exam for Chemistry in the table mentioned below:

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 the IIT JAM Physics paper students should have a time-table in place and make notes of important formulas that will make their last-minute preparation easy.

The difficulty level of IIT JAM is moderate to tough. The difficulty level for subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics is tougher as compared to the IIT JAM subjects of Economics, Biotechnology and Geology.

If we compare the difficulty level of IIT JAM 2024 examination with CUET PG exam, ISI Admission test, NEST exam, IISER Entrance examination, then it will be found that IIT JAM 2024 examination is comparetively tougher than the other top colleges/ universities entrance examination.

Aspirants should check the following steps to start with the preparation process of IIT JAM 2024.

Step 1: Know the IIT JAM syllabus thoroughly.

Step 2: Understand the IIT JAM exam pattern and marking scheme.

Step 3: Get the best books to study for IIT JAM and other study material.

Step 4: Make a monthly time-table, a weekly time-table, and a daily time-table.

Step 5: Solve past years’ question papers, sample papers, and mock tests.

For each Test Paper, an All India Merit list will be prepared based on AIR. The number of candidates included in the All India Merit List will depend on the total number of seats available in each category (GEN/ OBC-NCL/ EWS/ SC/ ST/ PwD) in a given subject. These candidates  (henceforth called Qualified Candidates) are eligible to apply for admission to any of the
corresponding academic programmes. The JAM 2024 Scorecard indicating the AIR and the mark obtained by the candidate will be available for download from the JAM 2024 website from April 02, 2024 to July 31, 2024 for qualified candidates.
