Hello,

Below I will explain both IIT JAM and JEST in detail.

IIT JAM

Joint Admission Test for MSc programmes or JAM is a national level entrance examination for admission to MSc and other post-graduate science programs. From the Academic Session 2004-05, IITs started conducting a Joint Admission test for M.Sc. (JAM). The objective of JAM is to provide admissions to M.Sc. (Two Years), Joint M.Sc.-Ph.D., M.Sc.-Ph.D. Dual Degree, and other Post-Bachelor Degree Programmes at the IITs and Integrated Ph.D. Degree Programmes at the IISc.

The examination is held once a year and is an ONLINE Computer Based Test (CBT)

The exam duration is of Three hours.

JAM 2021 Examination will be conducted in seven subjects, also referred to as Test Papers; Biotechnology (BT), Chemistry (CY), Economics (EN), Geology (GG), Mathematics (MA), Mathematical Statistics (MS) and Physics (PH).

For all the seven test papers, the duration of the examination will be 3 hours. The medium for all the test papers will be English only. There will be a total of 60 questions carrying a total of 100 marks. The entire paper will be divided into three compulsory sections, A(a total of 30 Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ) involving 10 questions of one mark each and 20 questions of two marks each),   B (contains a total of 10 Multiple Select Questions (MSQ) carrying two marks each)  and C (contains a total of 20 Numerical Answer Type (NAT) questions involving 10 questions of one mark each and 10 questions of two marks each).

Negative Markings are there only for MCQ type questions.  For each wrong answer to 1 mark questions, 1/3 mark will be deducted, and similarly, for each wrong answer to 2 marks questions, 2/3 mark will be deducted.

PhD programme of different participating institutes (see the list from JEST home page: https://www.jest.org.in/joint-entrance-screening-test?q=participating-institutes ) in physics and theorertical computer science / neuroscience. The JEST examination is conducted for two subjects only, namely, physics and theoretical computer science.  However, the qualifications for admission to the PhD and Int. PhD programme in various participating institutes are different. So the candidate is requested to visit the websites of the participating institutes of their interest to know more about the qualification requirement.

There is no restriction on age for appearing in JEST examination. However, each participating institute has its own eligibility criteria. For details on the eligibility criteria of the participating institutes candidates are advised to visit their websites.

Hello student,

The eligibility criteria for a candidate to appear for IIT JAM examination is that a candidate must possess a bachelor's degree with minimum of 55% aggregate marks or 5.5 CGPA/CPI out of 10 for the unreserved category.

If a candidate want to pursue post graduation in mathematics then the candidate must have studied mathematics as one of the core subjects in the bachelor's degree or at least two years/four semesters. So, as per your query you are eligible for the examination since you've studied mathematics as a general elective subject for two years.
