 The steps to prepare for IIT JAM Physics are:
1. Know complete IIT JAM Physics Syllabus and Pattern:
The very first step is to know the complete IIT JAM Physics syllabus & pattern of the exam
for the best preparation.
You should take out the 2-3 prints for the syllabus, put them into your preparation books
and material and cover the topic given in the syllabus line wise.
Be aware of the exam pattern for the exam it is given in the following.
 The steps to prepare for IIT JAM Physics are:
2. You should be Aware of Marking Scheme:
In the section A, all the incorrect marks will be result in negative marks and the scheme
is as follow:
1 mark question 1/3 marks are deducted for wrong answer.
2 marks question 2/3 marks are deducted for every wrong answer.
In section B, there is no negative marking scheme.
In the section C, again there is no negative marking as there are only NAT questions.
All the questions which will be not attempted are given zero marks.
