IIT JAM Mathematics (MA) is considered one of the most sought-after master’s level competitive exams after BSc./B.Tech. Students can get direct admission into IITs and into IISC (upon clearing the interview). The IISER’s also take IIT JAM rank into account so all in all, it is a pretty important entrance if you are interested in higher mathematics.
To apply for admission to the Mathematics program, a candidate is required to qualify in the Mathematics Test Paper and also satisfy the Minimum Educational Qualifications (MEQs) and Eligibility Requirements (ERs) of the Academic Programme.
The Eligibility Requirements for IIT JAM 2022 is given below:

The JAM 2022 Examination for all the seven Test Papers will be carried out as ONLINE Computer Based Test (CBT) where the candidates will be shown the questions in a random sequence on a computer screen. This is how the Exam pattern for IIT JAM Mathematics 2020 will look like:
| Section | Type of Questions | Number of Questions | Marks Distribution |
| A | Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ) | 30 | 10 questions of one mark each and 20 questions of two marks each |
| B | Multiple Select Questions (MSQ) | 10 | Two marks each |
| C | Numerical Answer Type (NAT) | 20 | 10 questions of one mark each and 10 questions of two marks each |
| Total | 60 | 100 |
The time duration of the Exam is 3 hours in total.
Marking scheme:
In all sections, questions not attempted will result in zero marks. In Section-A (MCQ), the wrong answer will result in negative marks. For each wrong answer to one-mark questions, the one-third mark will be deducted and similarly, for each wrong answer to two-mark questions, a two-third mark will be deducted. In Section-B (MSQ), there are no negative and no partial marking provisions. There is no negative marking in Section-C (NAT) as well.

Go through the syllabus:-
Learning about the syllabus is an essential part of preparation. This helps to have a better understanding of the preparation strategy and what topics to focus on. It saves you time as well.
Work on your concept and solve different questions:-
Try to clear your concepts on each topic and practice questions based on that topic from different books. This way, you will be able to understand your understanding of the topic.
Solve Previous Papers:-
This will help you know the exact difficulty level of the exam and prepare accordingly. Try to solve them in a time-bound manner. Check out some of the past year's problems available here.
Take Mock Tests:-
Take Mock Tests to check your ability of problem-solving. If it is an online test, then it can help you know your preparation status in the competition. You will be able to know where you stand and what should be improved.
Track your progress:-
You should also track your progress. If something unimportant is stealing your time, recognize it and try to avoid it. Keep yourself surrounded by people who encourage you. Discuss your dreams and goals with them.
Take proper rest and believe in yourself:-
It is the biggest myth that studying for long hours brings productivity to your work. There should be a routine with a proper work-rest balance and then you should ritually follow it. Also having low self-esteem can ruin your performance in exams.
