IIT JAM MATHEMATICS 2023

IIT JAM Entrance Exam Details

Joint Admission Test (JAM) is an all-India admission test conducted jointly by the Indian Institute of Technology (IITs) and Indian Institute of Science (IISC) since 2004 to provide admissions to M.Sc. (Four Semesters), Joint M.Sc.-Ph.D., M.Sc.-Ph.D. Dual Degree.

To apply for the topmost IIT MSc entrance exam, an aspirant must fulfill the following requirements

all candidates admitted through JAM should have a Bachelor's degree.
The candidates must PASS the qualifying degree examination. In case a candidate is promoted without a mark sheet, the promotion certificate or a document accompanying the promotion certificate duly signed by the Head of the Institute must mention the subjects taken in that semester/year to evaluate the MEQ requirements for admission to a specific program.
The medium of instruction is English.
IISc Bangalore, IISER Bhopal, IISER Pune, IISER Tirupati, and Centralized Counselling for M.Sc./M.Sc.(Tech) for NITs (CCMN) Institutes may be using the JAM 2023 results for admission to their postgraduate programs.

IIT JAM Exam Pattern 2023

IIT JAM Exam Pattern Section A

Number of Questions – 30 questions having 10 questions of 1 mark each and 20 questions of two marks each. Each question will have four choices out of which only one choice will be a correct one.
Nature of Questions – Objective type (MCQs)
Exam Mode – Online (CBT)
Exam Medium – The question papers at all exam centers will be in English only.
Marking Scheme – 1 or 2 mark questions
Negative Marking – For each wrong answer of 1 mark questions, 1/3 mark will be deducted, and similarly for each wrong answer of 2 marks questions, 2/3 mark will be deducted.

Sections/Types	Section A
Number of Questions	30
Marks	1 or 2 marks for each question
Negative Marking	1/3 of marks will be deducted and for 2 marks questions, 2/3 marks will be deducted
Types of Question	Multiple Choice
Mode of Exam	Online

IIT JAM Exam Pattern Section B

Number of Questions – 10 questions only.
Nature of Questions – Multiple Select Questions (MCQs). Each MSQ type question is similar to MCQ but with a difference that there may be one or more than one choice(s) that are correct out of the four given choices.
Exam Mode – Online (CBT)
Exam Medium – The question papers at all exam centers will be in English only.
Marking Scheme – The candidate gets full credit only if he/she selects all the correct answers only and no wrong answers.
Negative Marking – There are no negative and no partial marking provisions.

Sections/Types	Section B
Number of Questions	10
Marks	2 marks for each question
Negative Marking	No negative marking
Types of Question	No options will be displayed
Mode of Exam	Online

IIT JAM Exam Pattern Section C

Number of Questions – 20 questions involving 10 questions of one mark each and 10 questions of two marks each.
Nature of Questions – Numerical Answer Type (NAT). For NAT type questions, the answer is a signed real number, which needs to be entered using the virtual numeric keypad on the monitor.
Exam Mode – Online (CBT)
Exam Medium – The question papers at all exam centers will be in English only.
Marking Scheme – For correct answers candidates will get 2 marks.
Negative Marking – There are no negative and no partial marking provisions.

Sections/Types	Section C
Number of Questions	20
Marks	2 marks for each question
Negative Marking	No negative marking
Types of Question	No options will be displayed
Mode of Exam	Online

Note: There is a provision of using Online Virtual Calculator and hence, the candidate should not bring any calculator with them.

IIT JAM 2022 Marking Scheme

Each paper in IIT JAM will contain a total of 60 questions divided into three sections which will carry 100 marks.

Section	No of Questions	Marks	Negative Marking
A	10 MCQs	1 mark each	1/3
A	20 MCQs	2 marks each	2/3
B	10 MSQs	2 marks each	Not Applicable
C	10 NAT Questions	1 mark each	Not Applicable
C	10 NAT Questions	2 marks each	Not Applicable
