Preparing for MSc in IIT - Reshma

[albert_physics7]

Okkkkkk
& wat about the no. of questions asked on each topic...
Out of 25 how many questions r asked on Mechanics & Prop. of Matter, Oscillations, Modern Physics, EM..etc..??...
is it fixed or Randomly?

I have given all the useful links on JAM. Please browse through this thread and search for it. The old papers have been uploaded on JAM site. Please try solving all of them. Any difficulties regarding the solutions, you can very well post your doubts in the homework section. The panel here will be happy to help you.

Here are some old JAM papers:

Hi guys i came across this stunning website for IIT JAM , GATE , MCA , UGC-NET. this site has all the preparation resources , model test papers , discussion forum and expert guidance all free. Join it and enjoy your preparation

 

[pseudapler]

Am i eligible for JAM after Btech in electronics and Comm.?
How are the career prospects after MSc in Physics?

i think u missed out the site ..

yup ... its www.trajectory.in

 

[mamta]

Hi..

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

hii reshma
u can visit www.trajectory.in
u can find lot of material for iit jam
it is managed by a team of iitians

 

[mamta]

thank u swastik
its really amazing site
are u appearing for jam
have u solved test papers on www.trajectory.in

Yes mamta .. you can ask for solutions on the JAM forum in trajectory.in ..I will post thr for benefit of all people..

hello,
I am a final year B.Tech. Electronics & Communication student from Nirma University. I'm planning for graduation in physics, although have NOT appeared for JAM this year, might do so next year.
So right now my choices are- U of Pune, U of Delhi and U of Hyd. If I ask for the books for these entrances, I think everyone would suggest halliday & irodov.

anyway, is there anyone who has switched to physics from Engineering? or planning to?

IIT JAM is completely different compare to other entrance tests, it is completely discriptive and way of preparations should be more relavent to each chapter.

I am preparing for IIT JAM 2009.

This is my second attempt to IIT Physics.
Last time I achieved Interview level for IISc (Physics).
Let me further any clarifications and suggestions.

Regards,
Parashu.V

 

[parashu]

Is anyone there for taking the IIT JAM 2009 , IISc entrance tests for this year.

 

[AypaPhysics]

Thanks all i got slight knowledge about preparing for physics in India. I completed B.E. Electronics and Communication. I am interested in physics.

 

[kksss9108]

are there any coaching institutes for jam preparation?

 

[diaz]

reshma please let me know bout the reference books to be followed for the iitjam exam for geophysics for both the papers of physics n maths.

 

[diaz]

please let me know bout the reference books to be followed for the iitjam exam for geophysics for both the papers of physics n maths for the following topics:
Sequences, Series and Differential Calculus
Integral Calculus
Differential Equations
Vector Calculus:
Linear Algebra.
Real Analysis
probability
statistics
complex analysis
numerical analysis

mechanics
oscillation
elec n magnetism
thermodynamics
modern phy
solid state phy
please please send the reply as quickly as possible.

 

[anupboldhan]

please suggest books for iit jam physics i am in great confusion

 

[Reshma]

please suggest books for iit jam physics i am in great confusion

I started this thread nearly 5 years ago and I wonder how much the exam format has changed in the last 4 years since I had given the test. Anyway, problem solving is very important and they ask numerical as well as non-numerical problems. Try to obtain as many past papers as possible and attempt solving them to identify your weak points. Here are some of the books I would suggest for preparation:

1) Electricity and magnetism: David Griffiths [There is usually one problem directly from this book]
2) Mechanics: Keith Simon, Klepner and Kolenkow
3) Electronics: Albert Malvino [Just basics on logic circuits, transistors is sufficient]
4) Mathematical Physics: Mary Boaz
5) Modern Physics: Beiser
6) Quantum Mechanics [For JAM level preparation, Beiser's book is enough]
7) Heat and Thermodynamics: Zemansky, Gupta Roy
8) Optics by Ghatak and by Jenkins and White
9) Resnick and Halliday for general physics, including mechanics,optics,etc.
10) Relativity: Robert Resnick's book is good enough.

Good luck with your preparations!

Hi Reshma,
Even though this thread is for IIT JAm, do u have any idea regarding JEST reference books for physics?Kindly help as the exam is in feb. and i have no clue of any reference books. i have done btech in mechanical.

01.Mathematical Physics
02. Classical Mechanics
03. Electromagnetic theory
04. Quantum mechanics
05. Statistical Mechanics

Also, can anyone tell me where i can find previous JEST papers?
Thanks:)

There are no standard reference books for either JEST or JAM. But the syllabus for both is similar. JEST is fully objective based unlike JAM which has descriptive type questions as well.
I can suggest the following books:
1. Mathematical Physics: Mary Boas
2. Classical Mechanics: Keith Symon, Resnick-Halliday
3. Electromagnetic theory: David Griffiths
4. Quantum mechanics: Arthur Beiser
5. Statistical Mechanics: Beiser, Gupta Roy

Also, can anyone tell me where i can find previous JEST papers?
Thanks:)

JEST papers are kept confidential, there are some sample questions on their website.

You can also appear for GATE Physics if you plan to do PhD in Physics. Papers are available online.
