Yes, it is possible to appear for the IIT JAM in Biotechnology after completing a BSc. in Biotechnology (Vocational). Any candidate who have obtained a bachelor’s degree from a recognized university in a relevant discipline, such as B .Tech/B.Sc/B.E., are eligible to take the IIT JAM entrance test. To appear for IIT JAM in Biotechnology, candidate must have a Bachelor’s degree with at least 55% aggregate marks from a recognized university for General category. For SC/ST the candidate must have a Bachelor’s degree with at least 50% aggregate marks from a recognized university.

With a 2700 rank in IIT JAM EWS category, you have a good chance of getting admission into an MSc Chemistry program at several NITs like NIT Calicut, NIT Trichy, NIT Rourkela, NIT Patna, etc.

as the admission process for NITs mostly happens through the centralized counselling process (CCMN) based on your JAM score, and your EWS category will provide you with a significant advantage in terms of cut-offs; however, the specific NITs you can get into will depend on the individual institute's cut-offs and the overall competition for that year.

During counselling, carefully select the NITs based on your rank and preferred specializations.

Hope you have great life ahead...

No, based on the eligibility criteria, you wouldn't be eligible to apply for the IIT JAM program in Geology with a graduation degree in Geography from the University of Calcutta.

The minimum qualification for the JAM Geology (GG) program typically requires a Bachelor's degree in Geology or a related field for three years/six semesters. While Geography is a related field in terms of studying the Earth, it focuses more on human-environment interactions and social aspects, differing from the focus of Geology on the Earth's physical structure and processes.

The JAM Geology program delves into subjects like Petrology, Mineralogy, Paleontology, which require a strong foundation in the core principles of Geology. A Geography degree might not have covered these specific areas in sufficient depth

Several universities offer Master's programs in Geography with specializations like Environmental Geography, Resource Management, etc. These programs might be a good fit considering your background. Some universities offer integrated M.Sc. programs in Geology or Earth Sciences. These five-year programs are designed for students who haven't studied Geology at the undergraduate level.

Based on the information available for IIT JAM 2024, applying for Geology with a Geography degree from Calcutta University might be difficult.  IIT JAM requires candidates to have a Bachelor's degree in Geology or a related field for three years/six semesters. This could include subjects like Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Biological Sciences alongside Geology courses.

Your graduation is in Geography, a distinct field from Geology. While there might be some overlap, it likely wouldn't fulfill the specific Geology course requirement for JAM.

No, your B.A. Geography and current M.A. in Geography likely wouldn't make you eligible for the IIT JAM Geology or BHU M.Sc. Geology entrance exam.

IIT JAM typically requires a Bachelor's degree in a relevant science field like Geology, Geophysics, Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, or Environmental Sciences. While Geography might touch on some related topics, it wouldn't be considered a direct equivalent for the Geology program. Similar to IIT JAM, BHU M.Sc. Geology entrance exams often require a Bachelor's degree in Geology, Geophysics, or other allied earth science subjects.

Dear

According to the information deciding which exam is easier depends on your strengths and preferences! Here’s a quick comparison:

JAM (Joint Admission Test for M.Sc.):

• Focus: Mainly for admissions to M.Sc. and other postgraduate science programs.

• Subjects: Primarily science subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Biotechnology, etc.

• Difficulty: The level of questions is considered to be moderate to difficult but focuses more on conceptual understanding and application.

• Frequency: Conducted once a year by different IITs.

JEE (Joint Entrance Examination):

• Focus: For admissions to B.Tech/B.E. programs in engineering colleges, including IITs, NITs, and other reputed institutions.

• Subjects: Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry at a higher secondary level.

• Difficulty: Known for its challenging and competitive nature, requiring strong problem-solving skills and extensive preparation.

• Frequency: JEE Main is conducted twice a year, while JEE Advanced (for IIT admissions) is conducted once a year.

If you have a strong foundation in science subjects and are more inclined towards postgraduate studies, JAM might seem easier. On the other hand, if you’re keen on engineering and have good problem-solving abilities, JEE might be the right fit, though it is generally considered tougher due to its competitive nature and the depth of understanding required.

Thanks.
