The pattern of the IIT JAM physics examination is very scientific. The nature of the question of IIT JAM physics is conceptual and it also tests the acumen of the problem-solving technique of students.
Method of examination The JAM Examination will be carried out as an ONLINE Computer Based Test (CBT) where the candidates will be shown the questions in a random sequence on a computer screen.
Timing of examination the duration of the examination will be 3 hours and the medium for the test paper will be English only. There will be a total of 60 questions carrying 100 marks.
