This class is designed for students preparing for the IIT-JAM Geology and Geophysics paper, particularly those in their final year of B.Sc. or fresh graduates who aim to pursue M.Sc. or integrated Ph.D. programs in premier institutes like IITs and IISc. It is also suitable for students who want to strengthen their fundamentals in Earth Sciences and Geophysics for higher studies or competitive exams.
Students will learn core topics in Geology (stratigraphy, mineralogy, petrology, structural geology, paleontology, economic geology, applied geology) and Geophysics (seismology, gravity, magnetics, electrical, well logging, exploration methods, geophysical signal processing, mathematical and physical fundamentals). Emphasis will be placed on conceptual clarity, problem-solving techniques, and past year JAM paper discussions. Special practice sessions will enhance speed and accuracy, ensuring students are exam-ready.
Students are expected to bring a notebook, scientific calculator, and previous year JAM papers for practice. All study materials, practice questions, and mock tests will be provided during the course.
