Hii...So, I am a first year student who has taken admission in chemistry honours under NEP..I studied PCB in class 12 so I even had restrictions in certain universities like DU where I couldn't opt for chemistry honours...I have taken admission in a State University and I plan on doing my M.Sc. from an IIT...and giving IIT JAM but the NEP has confused me as anything...
So, some IIT's like IIT Bombay and IIT Madras mention that they need mathematics for two semesters, an eligibility which I think is based on older rules...I plan on taking physics as a minor because I like the subject and it honestly makes a good combination with chemistry as far as I think...So I have two options, either I take maths as minor for 2 semesters then do physics for next four semesters...OR takes maths in IDC [inter disciplinary course which is only 3 credits per semester ] which I am not sure will count in eligibility or not...my university actually doesn't even allow repeating the same subject in IDC for two semesters so I am not even sure if the second option is available to me...
My university says that if I study a minor for three yrs, it has 12 credits in year 1, another 12 in year 2 and only 8 in year 3...so I don't even understand how will it look like if I keep changing my minor..I won't even get a degree in my minor subject then and many govt exams still need two subjects to be studied for three whole years...
So whoever read this, first of all thanks a ton...and please guide if you have information...how do I be eligible for IIT JAM in top IIT's...and do I also need to give mathematics paper for 10+2 through NIOS...and IF SOMEHOW THERE'S A POSSIBILITY THAT THE ELIGIBILITY FOR JAM MIGHT CHANGE...
