Preparation for IIT JAM Chemistry exam can be done with the help of reference books like, Analytical Chemistry by R. Gopalan, Mathematical preparation for physical Chemistry by F. Daniel, Organic Spectroscopy by William Kemp, etc. E-books, reference guides, etc also acts useful sources for exam preparation.
Reference Books for IIT JAM M.Sc Chemistry Exam
Books on Analytical Chemistry
First step in exam preparation is to collect detailed syllabus of the exam. Physical Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, etc are the main subjects in IIT M.Sc JAM (Chemistry). After collecting syllabus, aspirant should set up an appropriate timetable. This timetable should be prepared so that you can cover all subjects mentioned in the syllabus.
Candidate should provide equal importance to both theory as well as problems. As subject of Chemistry includes formulas and equations, practice by writing will be really useful.
Referring books and suitable web portals will also help. After gaining basic idea on all topics included in the syllabus, one can start practicing model question papers and reference guides. Solving maximum number of questions will help you in better time management and in understanding the type of questions asked.
