Hello,
When it comes to eligibility criteria of MSc Biotechnology for appearing in IIT JAM, then there is no such restriction of having any specific subject combinations at graduation level, however candidates are required to have studied biology as a subject at 10+2 level which I believe you should definitely have, other this there is requirement of 55% aggregate at graduation level for UR/OBC, in case of reserved categories there is relaxation of 5%, visit our page at https://university.careers360.com/articles/jam-eligibility-criteria to know more details regarding this, you can access the syllabus for biotechnology at https://jam.iisc.ac.in/p/biotechnology-bt-1, you can also go through this year and previous years sample papers at https://jam.iisc.ac.in/ in order to get acquainted with the exam pattern, important topics, marking scheme, through regular practice you can analyze your preparation level, and thereby improve your speed, calculation, and time management skills.

after graduation how many times can i give iit jam
As many times as you want.If you choose "have you graduated?" option yes then you can find graduation year over 2000,so they didn't restrict over any gap year,and if you choose the option 'no' then you will find graduation year that year you apply for the application and the year you applied for,like if you apply for 2022 then you can find graduation year 2021 and 2022 so if you are in 2 nd year of your bsc Hons then you will not eligible for jam.For more details you can check any online application procedure full video you will understand.
Sorry,if there is any grammar mistakes, and I'm requesting that if anyone don't know the exact information then don't share wrong information it will hamper the students who takes two and more year of gap only for jam.
Best of luck .
I am doing BScG from IGNOU and now i am confused about carrier? Could give IIT JAM in Physics and mathematics? What is way of getting into technical research like machines , electronic, semiconductor devices ?
If you have Physics as one of the subjects in your UG with Mathematics for at least 1 year then you are eligible for the IIT JAM Physics paper. If you have Mathematics as one of the subject in your UG for the 3 years then you are eligible for the IIT JAM Mathematics paper.
If you want to go for the research in Electronics and Semi Conductors, then go for the MSc Physics course. After that you can go for the research in the fields of Stat Mech or Condensed Matter Physics or Electronics or Semiconductor Physics and Material Sciences which are very close fields and can full fill your aspirations. So going for Physics will be a better choice if you want to go for research in Electronics and Semiconductors.

if i do spelling error in my college name.. is my IIT JAM form rejected or not??
Hi aspirant,
You need not to worry much about 8 if there is only a spelling mistake in your name during the registration or any further procedures. There exists a very simple solution for it you need to carry a self attested affidavit claiming that both the persons are same which should be supported by relevant and valid documents, proofs. Also try to do this procedure during the the document verification or counselling procedure before the allotment of colleges through JEE advance.
Hope it helps!!
