[jai6638]

[poolwin2001]

It is Masters in Science.It should be written as MSc though.

Hi..

I would like to know what are the preparations required for JAM?

 

[Reshma]

Typo!

Could you clarify what exactly the acronym MSC means?

Sorry for the typo. It is "MSc".

 

[bombhola]

since u don't get to see previous yr's q. paper- i'd advise u to sit for as many competitive exams--e.g. JEST 2005, IISc, JNU entrance exam etc. as u can-- so that u get acquianted with their question types. exams r formula based-- I'm sorry to say u need to mug them up first! enroll for JEST immediately-- it's date may already be over-- after that there are some books which u'll have to go thru-- like griffiths, kleppner etc.

If anyone is over here is preparing for JAM, you can PM me. I wonder how much help I can be of since I'll be taking this exam only next year, anyway glad to be of any help.

Also are there any IITians here who can be resourceful for students preparing for JAM?

The thing that sucks most is that Phyiscs students are required to have taken TWO years/four sems of maths, while we had maths only in the first year. Think they'll let me write the exam? :grumpy:
OTOH, http://203.200.55.110/" will have a separate paper for students with a B.Sc (for Physics only). Isn't that amazing!

The thing that sucks most is that Phyiscs students are required to have taken TWO years/four sems of maths, while we had maths only in the first year.

Although I had taken 4 semesters of maths, it isn't adequate for JAM syllabus.

Mathematical Methods: Calculus of single and multiple variables, partial derivatives, Jacobian, imperfect and perfect differentials, Taylor expansion, Fourier series. Vector algebra, Vector Calculus, Multiple integrals, Divergence theorem, Green’s theorem, Stokes’ theorem. First and linear second order differential equations. Matrices and determinants, Algebra of complex numbers.

I can manage most of the calculus and vector analysis part but I haven't touched Tensor analysis and Fourier series since we were never taught these topics.:grumpy: I'm doomed!

Neither were we (a bit of Fourier series, but due to "bad teaching" and time constraint, I could understand none of the topics). I'm currently using Boas' book (after reading ZapperZ's STRONG recommendations) to take me through the maths for physics. Not touched upon Fourier series, yet. Just over three months to go, I'll try to get in as much as possible (i.e. if I write the test :tongue2: )! Also, I'm not sure if they really teach tensor algebra/calculus in the UG syllabus in India. :uhh:
