Postgraduate Science Entrance

IIT JAM: Your Gateway to M.Sc at the IITs & IISc

The Joint Admission Test for Masters (JAM) is the single national gateway to M.Sc, M.Sc–Ph.D. dual degree and integrated Ph.D. programmes at the IITs, IISc Bengaluru and NITs. At ALLIN we coach the three science streams students ask for most — Physics, Chemistry and Biology / Biotechnology — with concept-first teaching, mentor support and exam-grade testing.

About the Exam

IIT JAM is conducted every year by the IITs and IISc on a rotational basis (IIT Bombay is the organising institute for JAM 2026). A strong JAM score doesn't just earn you a postgraduate seat — it places you inside India's premier research ecosystems, with access to world-class labs, fellowships and faculty. For science graduates, it is the most direct route from a B.Sc to a research-driven career.

ALLIN's programme blends concept mastery (the K in KICN) with intensive problem practice, mentor-led doubt solving and full-length tests modelled on the real Computer-Based Test. You study through live and recorded classes you can revisit anytime, so revision is always on demand.

Who Is It For?

  • B.Sc students in Physics, Chemistry or Life Sciences targeting a top M.Sc
  • Final-year graduates who want a research or academic career
  • Aspirants aiming for integrated Ph.D. and fellowship pathways at IISc & IITs

Frequently Asked Questions

We focus on the three most-requested science streams: Physics (PH), Chemistry (CY) and Biology / Biotechnology (BL / BT). Counsellors help you choose the stream that matches your degree and target M.Sc.
A bachelor's degree in a relevant subject is required and final-year students can apply. There is no age limit; some institutes set a minimum aggregate (often around 50%). We verify your eligibility during counselling.
M.Sc, M.Sc–Ph.D. dual degree and integrated Ph.D. seats at the IITs and IISc, plus admission to NITs and other institutes through the CCMN counselling process.
Both. Choose live online, recorded or offline batches. Every learner gets recordings and full-length mock tests for revision.
