NEW DELHI: Indian Institute of Technology (IIT Madras) will open the JAM 2024 modification window on November 20 on the official website, jam.iitm.ac.in.

The IIT Madras will scrutinise the Joint Admission Test for Masters programmes (JAM 2024) applications to verify the data entered by the candidates. In case of defects in the application, these will be marked and intimated to the candidate on the registered email and mobile number through SMS. The students will have to modify the defects within the stipulated time.

The status of an JAM 2024 application will be updated after the receipt and re-scrutiny of the application. “Failing to rectify the defects within the stipulated time can lead to the rejection of the application,” the examination authority said.

JAM 2024: Tie-breaker criteria

In case of a tie, candidates with less negative marks will get the seat. If the tie still persists then it will be resolved by marks secured in numerical answer type (NAT) questions followed by multiple select question (MSQ) marks. If the tie is still not broken, the older candidate will get the seat.

The JAM 2024 Scorecard indicating the AIR and the mark obtained by the candidate will be available for download from the JAM 2024 website from April 02, 2024 to July 31, 2024 for qualified candidates.
